Comments on: Report: Floyd Mayweather to fight on May 1st, would go head-to-head against UFC PPV http://www.fightopinion.com/2010/01/20/report-floyd-mayweather-to-fight-on-may-1st-would-go-head-to-head-against-ufc-ppv/ Thu, 09 Feb 2012 23:26:43 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Mayweather-Mosley http://www.fightopinion.com/2010/01/20/report-floyd-mayweather-to-fight-on-may-1st-would-go-head-to-head-against-ufc-ppv/comment-page-1/#comment-74008 Mayweather-Mosley Sun, 28 Feb 2010 02:42:01 +0000 http://www.fightopinion.com/?p=5500#comment-74008 Both Floyd Mayweather and Shane Mosley were bred to be fighters like a farmer’s prized horse. Both guys grew up with boxing gloves hanging from their crib ceilings. The debating can go on and on forever. The bottom line is neither guy is going to give you an inch – both fighters are relaxed in the ring, comfortable and fluid in such a way that it’s easy to believe boxing pumps through their veins in absence of blood. Mayweather vs Mosley im really looking forward to. Mayweather looked untouchable against the smaller Marquez and Mosley was awesome against Margarito. That fight was 18 months ago and previous to that Mosley looked ordinary against a washed up Mayorga. So is Shane still in top nick? I see Mosley starting fast using his jab to take the early rounds. Floyd usually starts slowly but will take control around round 5. The usual dropping of the shoulder and lightning counter punching will take Floyd home to a points victory and hopefully setting up the fight with Manny.

Pac can face the winner for the real championship, so potentially this could lead to an even bigger superfight than Mayweather/Pac on 3/13 would have been. BTW for all the self-proclaimed experts haunting comment boards I recommend a listen to the latest episode of http://ringtalk.com/ featuring a frank interview with the 'mad scientist' behind BALCO, Victor Conte. Very informative regarding testing windows and steroids. If this fight happens (Mayweather/Mosley) it is for the WW championship in my book.

I'm guessing that makes a potential Mayweather vs Mosley bout that much closer to reality. If they really want to make an impression on PPV buys, they'll make it a doubleheader with Pacquiao vs Clottey... but I doubt they will.

Shame to see the fight with Berto being off, but this is a more than solid fight. I think there's a reasonable argument that it may be better than Floyd/Pacquiao. Plus; it'll sell.

The same stuff Bonds used. If you want to say he wasn't caught by an AC fine. But you're just playing the semantics game. Shane used it and had to pretend he didn't know what he took. It is ironic Floyd wants to fight him and dodged Manny while pretending it was about steroids. This just. Makes Floyd look like an even bigger tool.

I believe that is proof enough that he was trying to find a way out of the fight. If Mayweather doesn’t ask for the same testing of Mosley that he requested of Manny….
