There have been many criticisms in the past of Mayweather’s so called boring style leading to dull and drab fights which is some cases he does just enough to win, like in the De La Hoya fight for example but after the way he performed against Mosley on Saturday night he has truly silenced those views.

If one boxer can bring Paris Hilton to the boxing match, it is Floyd Mayweather Jr.

First things first, I think he has regained his pound for pound status as the king of the hill. Mayweather arguably lost only one round when outclassing fellow pound for pound compatriots in Juan Manuel Marquez and Sugar Shane Mosley.

Most of us believed that Mayweather would run, but the only way he was running was forwards, even in the final rounds when he already had the victory in the bag he never let his fans down. Floyd was obviously looking for something extra special, and despite not getting a knockout he did deliver a special performance.

Shane Mosley’s trainer Naazim Richardson stayed in Mayweather’s dressing room to watch the wrapping of Mayweather’s gloves which caused somewhat of a delay in the fight. Immediately after his hands were wrapped, Floyd Mayweather was handed the gloves he was to wear for the fight. This was the first time Mayweather saw the gloves without trying them on before the fight which was an unusual set of circumstances according to ringside commentator Emanuel Steward.

Image: Mosley-Mayweather: Who R U Picking?By Peter Wells: Tonight we will witness a fight that could change this era, of whom is the best and who will be next in the ring with Manny Pacquiao. Mayweather has been noted by so many as a boring fighter, but still he increases the margin of pay-per-view buys. How? Mayweather is a ticket seller, and his outstanding skills are spell binding. A fighter who only rises to the level he needs to, he doesn’t waste energy when it’s unnecessary. Tonight though it will be necessary for him to push himself to his full potential, as Mosley will no doubt push him to his absolute limit.

Image: Will Mayweather still consider himself better than Robinson and Ali if he loses to Mosley?By William Mackay: It’s going to be really interesting to see if Floyd Mayweather Jr. (40-0, 25 KO’s) still considers himself better than Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali if he loses tonight against Shane Mosley (46-5, 39 KO’s). You would assume that once Mayweather has been beaten his ego would equalize out to reality and he would start seeing that maybe he isn’t the best fighter in the world, but you can’t be too sure.

David Haye picking Mosley to beat Mayweather – News

Image: David Haye picking Mosley to beat Mayweather – NewsBy Sean McDaniel: World Boxing Association (WBA) heavyweight champion David Haye (24-1, 22 KO’s) is picking WBA welterweight champion Shane Mosley (46-5, 39 KO’s) to beat Floyd Mayweather Jr. (40-0, 25 KO’s) tonight at the MGM Grand, in Las Vegas, Nevada. In an article at Sportinglife, Haye says “Floyd Mayweather and Shane Mosley are my two favorite modern day warriors, who I’ve studied in depth over the years. Both fighters are guaranteed to go down in history as greats as they’ve fought and beaten great world champions in many different weight divisions. This fight will be very tense and competitive contest from the start, similar to the De La Hoya-Mayweather fight, but the difference, I feel, will be that Mosley will push hard down the final straight.”

Mosley: “He’s [Mayweather] not going to beat me”

Image: Mosley: “He’s [Mayweather] not going to beat me”By Chris Williams: WBA welterweight champion Shane Mosley (46-5, 39 KO’s) doesn’t plan on losing tonight against undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr. (40-0, 25 KO’s). In an article at the BBC, Mosley says “He’s [Mayweather] not going to beat me. When the fight starts, I’m going to go out there. I’m going to throw some traps here and there, touch him here and there. See what’s going on. I’ll probably be able to tell from the first bell what kind of fight it’s going to be.” I can see what kind of fight it will be as well. As soon as Mayweather starts landing clean counter punches, it’s going to awaken the brawling instinct in Mosley and he’s going to be looking to get in and pay Mayweather back with hard shots.

Roach believes that Mayweather was perhaps a great fighter as a super featherweight but isn’t the same fighter he once was now that he’s moved up to welterweight. In an article by Yahoo Sports writer Kevin Iole, Roach says “He [Mayweather] was a very good fighter, maybe even a great fighter, when he was at 130, 135 and maybe even 140. But he’s not the same fighter to me since he’s been at 147 and [154].
