I am so confident that mayweather will take his 1st loss may 1st. The most confident i've ever been. If you are smart you will load up on mosley +250 now before the line goes down. I think closer will be around +200.

Its hard to take that on an unbeaten champ but I think I agree. Still, with Mayweather's defense this one will go to the judges.Comment -
C'MON MAN.
I kept quiet when everyone was all over pacman. But sugar shane is not pacman.
Pacman would walk through 1000 jabs to fight mayweather in the middle of the ring and if that ever happened he would have won. I cant see mosley being able or willing to take the same punishment to get into an actual fight.
Mayweather will be boring and defensive and counter-punch his ass off and win on the cards like he always does.Comment -
Thats what i was thinking.Mayweather will be boring and defensive and counter-punch his ass off and win on the cards like he always does.
The 'Goes the Distance' prop is a mortal lock.

..........but dont say the L word. It's very bad. you should ban it all together actually.Comment -
I hope Mosley wins so it ruins Mayweather's shot at the mega-payday he would have had if he never accused Pacquiao of taking performance-enhancing drugs.Comment -
Don't do it.Comment -
Mosley got caught using steroids years ago but mayweather has no problems fighting him and not requiring a test, but he will only fight pacquiao if he takes a test.Originally posted by beach nut
Classic mayweather has been picking and choosing his fights for years!Comment -
Floyd and Shane both agreed to Olympic-style testing for the fight.Originally posted by sharpcatComment -
Mosely is taking a TEST. & Manny is the one scared of the test results.
I think MMW will win but I have a hard time betting on this one because Mosely is darn good when he shows upShut your mouth when you talk to Me!Comment -
Will be a good fight, best of LuckComment -
mosley will win if he juices upComment -
It's a shame Manny won't agree to the same.Originally posted by rjt721Comment -
A huge shameShut your mouth when you talk to Me!Comment -
Manny is a fraud, Floyd wins this like usual, but he and Manny will never tangle. Mosley knows he will likely lose and is in it for the payday, which is smart. No way I can see taking anyone other than Floyd hereComment -
I just dont see this happening.sbrComment -

I'm a fan of all 3 fighters (PBF, Mosley, Pacquiao), so as unbiased as I can be here... what other professional fighter has to undergo random blood tests?
It's stupid to blame Manny for anything. That fight was doomed from the start. Bob Arum. Floyd. Roach. Floyd Sr./Roger. Waaaaay too much bad blood and ego's involved to get anything done. I'm surprised they even agreed on the split!
But for Floyd to wake up one day and demand something no State Commission requires --- that's cheating the fans, his own legacy, and I feel he's once again protecting that 0 in his record to the best of his ability.
Yes, I'm sure Manny juiced up a little, legally or illegally (yes, it's possible. Floyd does it legally with different drugs in Nevada). But at least he has the right to dispute it. Great maneuvering by the folks at Golden Boy thus far though. I'm not blinded by their smokescreens. You have MOSLEY, one of DLH's top whipping boys; and Floyd, the new Mosley that had the physical ability to beat Oscar but not the business savvy to be his own man. I laugh at the belief they'll even take the random tests. It's just a ploy to make Manny look worse. And it's apparently working! Incredible.
Hopefully we can get the fight done next time.

1UP what about asking for 10 million dollars for 1 pound over weight? Does the State Commision require that?
I agree with pretty much everything else you say, but they both demanded things that arent normal, Manny was the one who was scared of his test result.Shut your mouth when you talk to Me!Comment -
Haven't heard about that one, but believe it. All the state commissions, organizations, sanctioning bodies, etc. do is set a few sportsmanship rules, loosely follow up on the fighters, and send out an invoice for their fees. They don't care about catchweights. They don't appoint judges or refs. They don't appoint what venue you can or can't fight in. The promoters do all of this. They are the ones with all of the power in this sport.
Look at the Klitschko brothers. There will not be a unified, undisputed Hevayweight champ anytime soon, because they refuse to pay sanctioning fees for each others belt commission. That would make them mandatory challengers immediately. And they're abusing that system like most other promoters and top fighters.
If Floyd/Manny brought up that 10m per pound stipulation though, it's stupid. Both walk around as Super Welters, max. They know this. That's just bad posturing. That would only make sense if Arum convinced them to fight under 146. Floyd paid Marquez 10k because he didn't weigh in at 144.Comment -
Manny asked for 10m if MMW was a pound over weight.
But I agree with all, I hope this fight does happen because Manny fighting other people is pointless at this point in his careerShut your mouth when you talk to Me!Comment -
no wayComment -
I think Mosley is definitely a live dog for this fight.Comment -
Damn if that was true then that is just outrageous, but IMO, I think its best that they both have ample time to prepare for each other. Maybe the stalling for whatever reasons will benefit the fans in the end.Originally posted by PabinatorComment -
Should be a good one.Comment -
I wouldn't be shocked if Mosley won this.Comment -
I would like to think Mosley would win. But Floyd's defense is too good and I highly doubt he can simply out point him. Floyd plays it super close to the vest if it even remotely feels like Mosley has game. Then just waits for super clean shots. It would be funny as heck if Shane stood there defensively and neither threw a punch.Comment -
No way Mosley wins this.Comment -
Probably the way to beat Floyd, just walk around the ring looking at each other, maybe he gets frustrated and starts to attack which would be unusual.Originally posted by SBR_JohnComment -
It will happen.Comment -
Dont ever bet against Floyd Money Mayweather. Floyd is pound for pound the best boxer in the world, and hes way to good of a fighter to lose to a 38 year old Shane Mosley. Floyds smarter, faster, more technical, and has better defense than Shane. Money Mayweather will pick apart shane and win easily. Floyd would also beat the **** outta that steroid addict Pacquiao if he would put down his magic juice and fight clean.Comment -
just glad to see these guys coming into a fight clean unlike pac-fraudComment -
Here's the deal...Shane has to punch to PBF's body early. The one guy to do this with result was Jose Luis Castillo. When you shoulder roll it protects against the single headshot but you leave your body open. Shane has to work the body to create opportunities for himself later in the fight. Floyd will use his footwork to try to measure distance and stay out of range but he still can be driven to the ropes. Most of the Michigen fighters who use this style lay on the ropes because they feel ok there but a body puncher who has pop like Shane can take advantage. Lots of people will be shocked with the way this fight turns out.Comment -
i hope i can get a great price on floyd on this one for both money and sbr pointsComment
