Boxing: Floyd Mayweather vs Shane Mosley on May 1st
 
Awesome fight. Doesn't totally make up for Floyd vs Manny but this is going to be a better fight if you ask me.

It is planned on being announced next week, assuming Shane doesn't somehow lose to Berto this weekend.

Anybody else watching this? They're heading to the ring now...

Thanks to the interwebs!

The hate from HBO on Floyd is fucking absurd. I hate Merchant so much.

Mayweather is like the Borg: You can get him once, and then he adapts completely.

Looks like Mosley is making him work for it though.

He was making him work for it. The last four rounds are a Floyd clinic. Shane has no answers now.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:04 PM

Floyd wins another round. He is landing 2-3 big shots each round now. Emmanuel Stewart even said it looks like Floyd doesn't even respect Shane out there right now with out aggressive he is being. Floyd is actually looking for a KO it seems.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:10 PM

Chalk yet another up for PBF. He almost KO'd Mosley as Mosley was jawing at him. Hit him with a nice straight right. This is a clinic.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:12 PM

If you want to know what happened in round 9, read any of my previous posts.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:13 PM

In round 9 Mosley connected on 3 out of 45 punches. Just disgusting.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:16 PM

Mosley improves in Round 10 to land 5 out of 40 punches.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:20 PM

One round left. Floyd has won the last nine rounds.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:24 PM

And Emmanuel Stewart sums it up best "After the first round is was nothing more then a really tough gym workout"

RainMaker 05-01-2010 11:27 PM

Floyd is unbelievable. The best I've ever seen.

DeToxRox 05-01-2010 11:28 PM

Shane landed 92 out of 400 + punches. Just unreal effort by Floyd.

Don't know why I continue to get these Mayweather fights. It's gotta be Pac Man next, they can't keep throwing these guys out there and let Floyd put on a clinic each and every time.

Part of why I didn't pay for it. That is the only opponent I would pay to watch Mayweather fight.

I was watching at work (the benefit of working at FOX News on the weekend is they get all the big events.) Of course, some idiot tried to blow up Times Square tonight and after round two I spent the rest of the fight actually working. :(

+1 though Clottey gave Mayweather a game plan that he can execute much better. I would worry even that fight could turn into a bore.

You're right, that is really hard to explain. Why would they keep scheduling such uninteresting opposition?

Oh, right, there's that. (Nothing personal, of course)

I didn't quite agree with the judges' scorecards. I gave a couple of rounds to Mariah Carey's cleavage.
