Mayweather vs. Mosley Preview

The meeting of Floyd Mayweather and Shane Mosley pits two of the top three fighters in the welterweight division and two of the top 10 pound for pound boxers on the planet against one another. It’s a fight that many feel should have happened years ago. In truth, both camps turned down or looked beyond possible match-ups with one another over the years, but the fight is a case of better late than never.

Shane Mosley has nothing to lose from this bout. He’s enjoying a second or perhaps third wind to his career after most thought he was finished being a top-level fighter. If he loses to Mayweather, he joins a long list of other big name fighters to have done the same and he does so at a time when he was expected to.

For Mayweather on the other hand, everything is on the line. A win and he remains in the discussion as being the best fighter of his generation, and that fight with Manny Pacquiao just may come off. A loss does nothing but confirm the mutters of bewildered fans who say Mayweather has avoided top competition and tough challenges throughout the duration of his career.

Key questions that should in large part determine the outcome of the affair.

Will Shane Mosley be rusty after a 15 month layoff?

How will Floyd Mayweather cope with Shane Mosley’s speed?
