Shane Mosley Vs Floyd Mayweather: Preview & Prediction


Two individuals, who at a time before, decided to carve their name on the epitome of boxing greatness. Today, these two are regarded as the top fighters in their respective division. One an experienced superstar who's in it to prove he is the best among the rest and the other, a representative of a long blood of champions, who is looking to cement his position as the greatest boxer of all time. On May 1st, reigning WBA welterweight champion and future Hall of Famer "Sugar" Shane Mosley takes on the former pound for pound king and 5 weight division prizefighter Floyd "Money" Mayweather in a fight billed the biggest & baddest fight of the year. I'll be profiling both fighters and give my prediction on who i think will emerge victorious on May 1st.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. (40-0-0, 25Ko's)

The perfect record speaks for itself. 40 fights, 40 wins with 25 by way of knockout has brought Mayweather to the very top level of boxing super stardom and is regarded by many as the purest boxer of all time. Known for his ability to hit ans slip from punches with great ease, Mayweather is a gifted boxer who in his long professional career, has never been hurt. Question can be raised however on the opponents he faced, whereby most of them were either past their prime or just looking for a payday. He has been known to ignore challenges from fighters that might blemish his record, choosing instead those whose style of fighting put them at a disadvantage against Floyd. Nevertheless, he does possess great speed, god-like defense and with long time trainer and uncle Roger Mayweather by his side, there is no doubting that Mayweather will be ready come May 1st.

Shane Mosley. ( 46-5-1, 39Ko's)

A professional boxing career spanning 17 year and 52 fights, Shane Mosley has seen it all, and done it all. Shane has been in the ring with the best of the best in the sport and is still going strong when everyone else has called it a day. His physical condition, and his previous fight against Margarito clearly shows he has the desire for it. The dilemma facing him is which Mosley will show up on fight night. Before the Margarito fight, we saw a washed up Mosley, one that should retire from boxing. At 38, he might have lost some of that speed that made him great, and having not fought in over a year, stamina will be put into question. But with new trainer Naazim Richardson beside him, a rejuvenated Mosley was brought back against Margarito whom he destroyed to win the title. Still quick with both hands and feet, and possessing brutal knockout power, look for Mosley to send out a statement on the 1st of May

Prediction

Look for the first 4 rounds to be fast and action packed as Mosley will try and catch Maywather off , and Floyd moving back and countering. Rounds 5-8 will see Mayweather having some control over the pace as Mosley will look to conserve energy. Rounds 9-12 will decide the fight with Mosley giving his all and Mayweather forced to engage. The fight looks like it will go to the scorecards and expect a win for Shane Mosley 115- 113 by unanimous decision

Is Bute the best super middleweight out there?


A 3rd round brutal knockout over Edison Miranda puts Lucian Bute at 26-0 (21Ko) and build up a reputation as a devastating one punch finisher. Miranda was taunting Bute's alleged lack of power when he was floored with a left uppercut that could have detached his brain. So can we regard Bute as the lead Super middleweight ? or does he still have lots to prove?
Bute is currently fourth on my list of Super middleweights, behind Andre Ward, Mikkel Kessler & Andre Dirrell. Bute has only faced one top level opponent (Andrade) pre Miranda so his wins have no strong credibility. With his latest win however, it will only be a matter of time (as soon as the super middleweight tournament ends) until he gets a fight with the big guns. I do see Lucian having a very difficult time against the likes of Ward, Kessler & Dirrell. He might do well against Arthur Abraham, or Allan Green . I would like to see a fight against Hopkins, as this fight can be a good test to see if Bute is indeed the real deal

Kessler earned the win.... but Froch will bounce back




Newly crowned WBA super middleweight champion Mikkel Kessler has definately earned the victory over Carl Froch, and should not be excused for getting the benefit of home advantage. Reports are quoting Froch accusing the judges of scoring the fight based on the home fighter and not the fight itself. Having watched the fight, i think Kessler deserves the win, especially with the chaotic final round.


I do see Froch bouncing back from this defeat. in my opinion, this defeat will make him a better fighter. He will now approach future fights with caution and definately better defense. if he can get past Arthur Abraham, we might even see a rematch somewhere next year.

Berto Calls Out The Pac

Fresh from his KO victory against Carlos Quintana, Andre Berto (26-0) 20 ko's has called out Pacman in a showdown that will see the WBO & WBC titles on the line. A canceled bout against Shane Mosley meant Berto had to wait a bit longer to get a super fight, thus taking on Quintana and knocking him out in the 8th round.

Going through the list of welterweights out there, one will see that Mayweather & Mosley will be facing each other on May 1st, Miguel Cotto has a fight against Yuri Foreman & question marks still remains on the availability of names like Marquez, Hatton and the boring Clottey. One fighter however, is free to rumble in September or November, and would defenitely be the biggest fight Berto will ever have on his resume.

Would I wanna see this fight? well lets take things into consideration. Floyd & Shane will have a rematch in their clause in-case Floyd loses, so we might see some availability around mid-2011. This means a match between Pacquiao (WBO) and Berto (WBC) would be the second best fight available, if compared to Pacman against Margarito/Marquez/Valero. Even if Berto looks tailor made for Pacquiao, at least he is a reigning world champion and still un-defeated.

Cotto Vs Foreman At The Yankee Stadium

Puerto Rican star, and former welterweight champion Miguel Cotto will be facing light middleweight champion Yuri Foreman at the Yankees stadium. I guess its safe to say that this will be a make or break fight for Cotto. 2 deafeats (Pacquiao & Margarito) and a dodgy SD victory (Clottey) has seen his status as an elite boxer fall. Cotto now has a chance to make a new name for himself as a new weight class, but Foreman does pose a strong threat. I'll be making my predictions as fight night approaches

David Haye Vs. John Ruiz : Prediction

David Haye defends his WBA Heavyweight title against mandatory challenger John "The Quietman" Ruiz which promises to be a good fight. Can home advantage get Haye past Ruiz, or will the quietman pull an upset win and take the title away from him. Lets have a look on how the fight will unfold

Haye comes to this fight having registered some impressive wins and set some good records for British boxing. 13 straight wins, his last one against the giant Valuev will make Haye the favorite going into this fight. Haye is a good boxer, possessing hand speed and punch power that wobbled Russian giant Valuev and with home advantage, he will up his game, despite reports quoting flab & complacency. Ruiz, the heavyweight controversy king goes into this fight as the unfavored underdog. Ruiz has more notable losses (twice against Valuev & once against Jones Jr.) than wins, as his most impressive win came against Andrew Golota. Known to resort to dirty tactics in some fights, Ruiz has always been a tough fighter to put down. Try as you might, his willpower always takes him through.

Expect the first 4 rounds to be fun to watch, as Haye will look to put an impressive performance for his fans, and Ruiz will look to spoil the atmosphere. 5th round onwards, Haye's impressive boxing skills will take over, throwing 1,2 power punches and move away before Ruiz can react. This will go on till round 8 & 9 where Ruiz will get desperate. Ultimately, Haye will prevail ans score a unanimous decision victory

Bernard Hopkins Vs. Roy Jones Jr. : Prediction



i kinda feel sad for Jones Jr. He's ego is still the size of a watermelon but his skills are as depleted as a sun-dried tomato. It is that ego which made him sign this rematch against Hopkins. lets break it down and see how the fight will unfold.

Coming into this fight, Jones Jr. was handed one of the most humiliating defeats in his career at the hands of Green via a first round KO. He remains bullish on his chances of defeating Hopkins but deep inside, he has doubts. Unlike Jones, Hopkins has aged gracefully and is still #4 in the pound for pound ranking. Back to back wins against Pavlik & Ornelas suggest he is still revving at high numbers. Jones has been KO'ed twice while Hopkins losses are by decisions.

I can see Jones making a better start than he did against Green. both fighters will be cautios in the first 3 rounds before making some bold moves. From then on, Hopkins will use his superior boxing skills & technical abilities to punish Jones. in the 7-8 rounds, Jones will be exhausted and will start making mistakes. the fight will be won in rounds 9 or 10 by Bernard Hopkins. Jones Jr. will announce his retirement from boxing.

Lights Out On Fast Eddie


Another win is racked up by Dr. Wladimir as he knocks the wind out of Eddie Chambers in the 12th round to leave him hanging on the rope for a good minute. Eddie basically fell like a sack of potatoes and was twitching, as he received a powerful left hook from Wladimir. Although not the impressive win everyone was hoping for, Wladimir still has cemented himself as an untouchable in the Heavyweight scene

Klitschko Vs. Chambers Prediction


Step up Eddie Chambers, the latest man to try his luck and stop one of the dominating forces in Boxing history, the Klitscho brothers. Eddie takes on Wladimir in Germany and will try to pull off a shock victory but is he biting off more than he can chew?

Eddie is know for his speed in the heavyweight division and together with his boxing skills, has seen some impressive wins being racked up by the little man against bigger opponents. Against Klitschko however, Eddie will be facing a fighter whom is bigger, taller and has a longer reach than he does. Klitschko, since employing Emanuel Steward has looked like an unstoppable machine and will be more than ready come fight night.

Chambers will have his moments as he tries his best to outbox Klitschko and might even drop the big man once during the early rounds, but Wladimir will come back stronger and force a stoppage in the latter rounds. Wladimir TKO

What Now For Magnificent Manny?


Pacquiao crossed out yet another big welterweight from his list of opponents as he cruised to a lopsided unanimous decision victory over Joshua "Peak-a-boo Master" Clottey. Credit to Pacquiao for giving non-stop action for 12 rounds but the fight was however pretty dull

So what now for Pacquiao? well his time from boxing will be put on hold up till November as he runs for congress in the Philippines. It will be the longest time Pacquiao has taken a break from boxing, leaving us having to watch re-runs of his previous fights.

When he does return however, who should/would he face?

Floyd Mayweather

Theres no need to profile this fight as we know all about it. everyone in the world, boxing fans or not wants to see this happen, so please don't keep us waiting again.

Sugar Shane Mosley

If by some miraculous reason Mayweather lost his fight in May, then Mosley will be the no brainer choice. A much more exciting fight is promised as these two engaging fighters battle it out for supremacy.

Timothy Bradley

It would be an exciting fight wouldn't it? Pacquiao taking on a young American hotshot. This fight would be a much better fight than a bout with either Marquez or Valero. The only problem is can Tim make welterweight by November?

Edwin Valero

This guy does not deserve a shot just yet. Fans would be booing Pacquiao if he did take Valero on for his next fight. Why not put Valero against Devon Alexander first as a gauge?

Antonio Margarito

I wouldn't mind seeing this fight. Margarito's a big welterweight and has a huge mexican following which would make the Dallas stadium as the venue. Should be a better fight than Marquez

Devon Alexander

Again, Pacquiao taking on a young American hotshot in Devon would please the public and quell rumors that Pacquiao cherry-picks his opponents

Clottey dissapoints the world


Another welterweight comes and goes, with his head down in disappointment as he fails to stop the Pac. Joshua Clottey employed the wrong strategy in the fight and it cost him dearly. Never again will he have a chance to fight one of the top fighters or a world title fight. If he would have thrown at least 150 punches more, it would have been somewhat of an exciting fight. In front of a sell out crowd of 51'000 the 3rd biggest in Texas, Clottey used his favored peek-a-boo defense all night long and only managed a measly 33 shots per round.

I only see clottey going downwards from here. HBO will most likely think twice about broadcasting his fights and Bob Arum will have a tough time negotiating prize money against future opponents. He's a noble fighter with criminal tactics, and i guess it's safe to say we wont hear much more of this Ghanian clamshell again.

Manny Pacquiao Vs. Joshua Clottey : Pre Fight Analysis


Agonizing hours of waiting for this fight has come and gone. This Saturday, Ghanaian tank Josh Clottey will get a chance in a lifetime when he faces pound 4 pound king Manny Pacquiao for the WBO welterweight championship. Will Clottey seize his opportunity and cause one of the biggest upset in boxing history? or will his name be crossed out on Manny's already impressive Hit-List? Read on to find out how i think the fight will unfold.










Joshua Clottey 35-3-0 (20 KO)


built from re-enforced steel, Clottey will be the strongest ever opponent Pacquiao has faced. He has never been knocked out and has only been knocked down once ( got back up from it pretty quickly) against Cotto. His defensive skills are classified as "God given" and he is one huge son of a bit*h. He has a mean uppercut and is the natural welterweight, coming in at 160+ lbs on fight night.















Manny Pacquiao 50-3-2 (38 KO)


Known as the man who revitalized boxing, Pacman is the current P4P king and boy does he have an impressive resume. Barrera, De La Hoya, Morales, Marquez, Hatton, Cotto are some of the big names he has destroyed (De La Hoya, Morales & Hatton all retired after losing to Pacquiao). Possessing ridiculously fast had speed and footwork, his punches come at angles previously not possible. His punching power baffles many critics as he has constantly KO-ed bigger and stronger opponents. Couple that with incredible stamina to last 12 full rounds and a very strong chin (proved against Cotto), he is definitely the hardest challenge of Clottey's career.

Prediction

I think Clottey will put up one hell of a fight, giving Pacquiao a stern test in the welter division. his defense will confuse the Pacman and will force him to rethink his strategies. However, Clottey is not know to have punching power (only 20 KO's in 38 fights) and might not hurt Pacquiao as much as people believe. Pacquiao will throw many more punches and land more clean shots even though Clottey has a good defense. He is the title holder and i think by the 10,11 or 12, we will have a stoppage in Manny's favor. Manny Pacquiao, victory by TKO.

The Scene So Far...

Some disappointments here and there, surprise fights being put together and we are back on course for a great 2010. Lets look at some of the fights that have been announced and how I think they will unfold:

Manny Pacquiao Vs Joshua Clottey


















I have to admit that at first look, this match was a waste of time. The way Pacquiao has been performing lately might suggest he will steamroll past Clottey and hand him a first knockout loss in his career, but the more I look at it, the more I think it might be slightly different. Put yourself in Clottey's shoes. A nobody who after 2 defeats looks like he's going out for good gets a lifeline from the biggest name in boxing, Manny. I'm pretty sure Clottey will train twice as hard and improve as much as he can to prepare himself for the biggest fight in his career. I expect Clottey to step up and make this his best fight ever, but ultimately fall short against the Filipino master. Pacquiao TKO in 10,11 or 12

Floyd Mayweather Vs Sugar Shane Mosley













Well played Floyd to snap up Mosley after the cancellation of the Mosley-Berto fight. not only will this give him more leverage for future negotiations against Pacquiao, it will also silence critics who doubted his commitment in fighting equal opponents. Mosley is still going great and this will make for an exciting fight but i do expect Floyd to extend his unbeaten record. Pretty Boy UD

Bernard Hopkins Vs Roy Jones Jr.














Delusional Roy still thinks the Green fight was stopped to early, despite images of him cowering in submission against the Australian. A long waited (but forgotten) rematch against Hopkins will again see him tasting defeat. Bernard has everything going for him. his confidence is high, racking up impressive wins and looks physically conditioned to dish out a beating against Roy. Hopkins TKO in 4,9 or 10th

Amir Khan Vs Paulie Malignaggi







Determined to establish himself in the US, talks of Khan facing Maidana or Marquez has been heard going around but a fight against Malignaggi is now officially confirmed. Malignaggi, who has notable losses against Cotto & Hatton is a good first fight for Khan and definately an exciting one. His unique Tommy Hearns style of fighting sees him being an excellent counter puncher. Khan on the other hand has lighting quick speed and after his last fight, devastating power. this is a really tough one to call as both fighters are good at what they do, but im leaning towards Khan for a UD or Split

Lamont Peterson Vs Edwin Valero












27 fights, 27 wins and 27 knockouts sees this highly rated Venezuelan looking for a big fight in the US. He wants Pacquiao or Mayweather but is definitely not ready for that. A strongly rumored fight against Lamont is on the cards and what a good match it will be. Valero is quick, strong, and barbaric in the ring while Lamont will be the younger of the two and will be fighting at a familiar weight class. For sheer determination and confidence, im going with a Valero UD on this one.

Miguel Cotto Vs Yuri Foreman









Cotto is one guy who i like to see fight again. when he's good, he brings all the excitement to the ring and wows you with his skills but as of late, he's a shadow of his former self. WBA Light Middleweight champion Foreman has a 4 inch height advantage over Cotto and is much more powerful than when he started. Why would Cotto fight a guy Pacquiao avoided is beyond my question but it is a chance for him to start over. I'm reserving judgment for this as the fight approaches.

Why I Think Pac-Weather Will Happen This Year


So its been twice now that I've said the big fight will happen this year but towards the end, and not in March. How can I be so sure, when everyone else is saying the fight is off? Well let me give you my arguments on why I think they are just buying some time.

Physical Condition

Mayweather has fought only one fight since returning, against Marquez. To fight Pacquiao, he will need to tune up his senses and make himself 100% once again. Both fighters would want to be at their peak going into this fight. Pacquiao could have gotten an opponent who fights like Mayweather to prepare himself, but I guess Clottey would do the job.

Time

March would be too early for a blockbuster fight. A fight in march would leave the rest of the year fairly dull but keeping the fight towards the end of the year would create enough tension and drama to ensure its record breaking success smashes through the roof

The Big Finish

I'm pretty sure both fighters will end their career after this fight (maybe Pac would end it against Marquez). What better way to end your career, than for your last fight to be the biggest fight in the history of boxing. It would leave fans talking about it for years and years to come

Money

Once this fight happens, there is basically no where else for them to go. There wont be an opponent big enough to match them and therefore no more fight revenue. By fighting an additional fight BEFORE the big match, they stand to earn those extra millions.

Promo

Yes this fight is big enough as it is, but both fighters would want to make sure that cover every aspect of promotion that they can for the fight. World tour, HBO specials, you name it. And in order to pull all of this off, they will need time on their hands.

Undercard

They would need big name undercards to compliment this fight, so a longer planning time would allow them to get the best fighters.

Venue

This I think is the only legit problem that's facing both sides. its either Dallas or Vegas. Pacquiao is fighting Clottey in Dallas & Mayweather in Vegas. I think they will analyze both fights and then determine which venue is best.

WOW...just to underline how big 2010 could be for boxing, this colossal fight was announced and believe me it will be a strong contender for fight of the year 2010. The only way to describe the trilogy is "exceptionally magnificent". Both men constantly pounded each other with flurries of punches it made it difficult to blink or breathe.

2010 Promises To Be BIG


What a year 2009 was. Amazing fights, shocking results, comeback victories and we ended the year with a spectacular fight between Paul Williams & Sergio Martinez. So can 2010 go one step further and make it the best year boxing has ever seen? there is a huge potential of that happening, so without further a due, let me introduce to you my 10 super fights of 2010, and the chances of it happening.

Andre Berto Vs. Shane Mosley

What a way to start the year of with this January 30th bout between two top welterweights fighters. An experienced Mosley looks to register another upset win over a younger opponent but Berto has racked up some big wins recently and will use this fight to propel him into boxing superstardom.

Chances of Happening: Confirmed Bout (30th January, 2010)

David Haye Vs. Vitaly/Wladimir Klitschko

The Klitschko Brothers are poised to shut the "Trash King" up once and for all as both Haye & either Klitschko's eyes a summer spectacle in 2010. Could the reign of the Klitschko brothers come to an end in the hands of Haye? Which of the brothers will he eliminate first? sources in the sport are pointing towards Vitaly in what could be a remake of the Rumble In The Jungle

Chances of Happening: Very Good

Miguel Cotto Vs Antonio Margarito II

When Margarito was caught using illegal wraps right before the start of the Mosley fight, Miguel Cotto's blood would have surely started to boil. He might have been beaten by a cheating Margarito and whats more, he was battered. I'm very sure he has his sights on setting the records straight and a rematch against Margarito would please fans of both fighters.

Chances of Happening: Good

Ricky Hatton Vs Juan Manuel Marquez

Hitman Hatton has taken a big break after the embarrasing loss against Pacquiao but looks set to return to the ring in 2010. There have been a few names thrown about, but none looks more appetizing then a fight with Manuel Marquez. For starters, both fighters have lost against Pacquiao and Mayweather, both are looking to get a big money fight once again, so why not go head to head? Marquez struggled at 140+ against Mayweather and Hatton will need a collosal workout to get back in shape, and appoint a new trainer. Theres alot to be done if this fight were to take place

Chances of Happening: Slim

Paul Williams Vs Kelly Pavlik

I am in full support of a rematch between Williams & Martinez after their excellent super-fight in December '09, but after Williams takes on Kelly Pavlik. Why? Pavlik has a proven KO record compared to Martinez, is of the same height as Williams and about the same age. If it happens, this fight will be an exciting one to watch

Chances of Happening: Good

Amir Khan Vs. Breidis Prescott II

In another case of an embarrasing loss, Khan would want to forget his fight with Prescott forever. Or does he? improving ever since and working with one of the best trainers in the sport, Khan dispatched Salita in round 1 and is now looking to the future. He does have his eyes on a rematch with Prescott and again, what better way to re-inforce your resume than to avenge your loss right? This fight intrigues me and has the looks of thrilling fight.

Chances of Happening: Slim

Floyd Mayweather Jr. Vs. Manny Pacquiao

Here we go. The "supposedly cancelled" fight that the whole world wants to see. Shrouded by the disagrement in regards to blood testing, this fight has been called off and both figter are allegedly looking for alternatives. C'MON GUYS, this fight will happen THIS YEAR. Maybe not in March but it will happen THIS YEAR. This could all be a promotional method to get as much coverage as possible. I think both fighters will have a tune-up fight and then face off against each other in the 4th quarter of 2010. Reputation, money, careers, hell even the future of boxing is at stake in this fight so do you really think they are gonna risk it all just because of a few drops of blood??? I don't think so

Chances of Happening: Very Good

Victor Ortiz Vs. Marcos Maidana II

This fight was a non-stop, adreneline pumping fight that went either way up to the 6th round. Both fighters scored knockdowns more than once and finally the doctor had to stop the fight in 6th, giving a TKO victory for Maidana. I think a rematch will be a sell-out, but both fighters might just be looking away.

Chances of Happening: Very Slim

Manny Pacquiao Vs. Juan Manuel Marquez III

Pacquiao has made his retirements intentions public as he plans to run for congress. Well that's fine but only do it when you have finished your business with Marquez. it just has to happen right? would Pacquiao want to go out knowing that he didnt really prove himself against Marquez? This fight could also be one reason why Marquez is still boxing. he wants to end it with Pacquiao.

Chances of Happening: Good

Timothy Bradley Vs. Joshua Clottey

I'm hearing alot from this Bradley guy and how he should get a shot against Pacquiao or Mayweather. Well why not prove yourself first. Pitting him against one of the meanest welters around, Clottey will test Bradley to the limit and prove if he does deserve a shot with the big leagues

Chances of Happening: Probably Not

Other Noteworthy Fights

Paul Williams Vs. Bernard Hopkins
Floyd Mayweather Vs. Shane Mosley
Kevin Mitchell Vs. Juan Manuel Marquez
Luis Collazo Vs Andre Berto II
