Mosley doesn't deserve the approx 10 million he got to fight.

[pat venditto]

A world class boxer and he's gassed in the 6th round? Says he either should have never got this fight or he didn't train hard. That was rape by mayweather.

[ttwarrior1]

rape?? mayweather didnt prove nothing and almost got knocked out twice, also afraid to fight manny

[Naz18]

He deserved it..

[AnotherLoan]

He deserves whatever people are willing to pay.

[pat venditto]

ttwarrior the name of the game isn't street fight. it's boxing.

Shane won 2 round maximum. You sir are not a boxing fan. Go watch some bum street fight.

[ttwarrior1]

mayweather also hasnt fought anyone at their best but maybe one boxer and he lost to oscar and everyone knows it. Mayweather proved nothing to me tonight except that he is afraid of manny. Im not a fan of street fighting and never will be

[BobHarvey]

Don't blame Mosley. Blame the promoter of the fight and the thousands of yuks who bought the PPV. As long as people will pay 49.99 to see a 38-year old washed up fighter get his ass kicked...they'll keep sending the Mosley's of the world out there. P.S. I'm a Mosley fan but he's well past his prime.

[pat venditto]

TTwarrior out of the whole fight the one of the main things you said in your post is mayweather almost got knocked out. Boxing isn't about knocking guys out.

You are a slugging/street fighting fan if you believe so.

[mv09]

He absolutely earned his pay. He gave Mayweather the scare of his life in Round 2. Mosley outperformed my expectations, as bad as he looked. I didn't think he was going to be able to start off so well.

[ttwarrior1]

yep another 15 seconds or so the fight could of been over , if it was someone else they actually would have stopped the fight.

[smallon]

He's deserving in this case and despite what you may think, he's also deserving of whatever the market will pay. To even say he's undeserving because of his being tired shows what little you know about boxing. He is older, as most people know, and thus, despite all the training, means he's not fighting like a younger man.

Older fighters use different tactics to overcome this disadvantage however, sometimes all the training and all the strategy in the world isn't enough. Mosley blew his limited load in the second round and once he started having his head beat on like a drum from Mayweather's jabs, he was spent, physically and mentally.

And BTW - pro boxing is about knocking guys out - that's the difference between amateurs and pros. Mayweather is not a knockout artist though, he is a finesse fighter who relies on his technical abilities rather than power. Guys who rarely knockout their opponents, ala Malignaggi, rarely make it big in pro boxing. Not only is the power important to stop from being overrun by an opponent who can punch, it's also important from a marketing standpoint to sell the fighter as knockout artists sell.

He's 38.

[pat venditto]

Mayweather is 33. What's your point?

[smallon]

Mosley is 38 and should retire. Mayweather only has another 2-3 fights left in him IMO and after that he will retire. Both of these guys are fighters who rely on their speed and 5 years is a big difference when you get over 30. Successful smaller fighters who fight past 35 or so are few and far between. Hopkins fights about 10 seconds out of each round and Big George relied on his power to equalize fights when he was being outboxed.

Mosley = old and needs to retire
Mayweather - doesn't have many superfights left in him

[gryfyn1]

Wow two threads ... you must be really bitter about losing...

[adlai]

He's 38.

stole the words out of my mouth.

[Cookie Monster]

It is usual for Mayweather opponents to look bad. Marquez is an elite fighter, and looked awful on their fight. Mosley did his best, but came way short.

The money share of Mosley is just what the public paid to see him fight Mayweather. It is nothing fraudulent (Roy Jones - Hopkins), so it is difficult to argue with the market price.

[paco]

PAC Man would fvck Mayweather up!

[pat venditto]

PAC Man would fvck Mayweather up!

Wishful thinking imo.

[INVEGA MAN]

I am so glad i didnt pAY FOR THAT GARBAGE FIGHT.

[Dirty Sanchez]

I guess you bad guys would of done better?

[ngates815]

He deserves whatever people are willing to pay.

Exactly...though it wasn't a great show

[whatsgood5]

Wishful thinking imo.

[RobbReport]

easy payday for both.

[Kaladarus]

He gave it his all and did what most people expected out of him.

[cky312]

If Mosley didn't deserve the $10 million he got, Clottey should have to pay the $1 million back to the fans that ordered the ppv.

[Educ8d Degener8]

yep another 15 seconds or so the fight could of been over , if it was someone else they actually would have stopped the fight.

What????

When?

[Powderguy]

ttwarrior has no clue what he watched last night, this guy is beyond lost it seems

[seaborneq]

Little guys always earn their money. Their fights always go the distance. Better than seeing two heavyweights lean on each other all night, or land one shot and the fight is over.

[ttwarrior1]

you didnt watch the 2nd round????? and exactly scab

[Boscoe]

Definitely not worth 65 bucks. It was barely worth my time finding it on the net.

[Cookie Monster]

If Mosley didn't deserve the $10 million he got, Clottey should have to pay the $1 million back to the fans that ordered the ppv.

And Roy Jones Jr - Bernard Hopkins are declaring bankruptcy trying to settle with the viewers for the real worth of their fight.

[Shane]

People watched that...?

[RobbReport]

damn i need to see this.

[Joe Dogs]

38 years old......16 month layoff......First fight back,Roger Mayweather Jr?.....You didn't have to be a brain surgeon to figure the out come of this one.
