Never bet against Mayweather. The way he adjusted after the second round and shut out Mosley was awesome. I can't wait to see him counter punch the shit out of Pacquiao.
Mayweather won, which most of us knew pre-fight, but damn his fights are boring. It was an actual fight for all of 3 rounds... and then it went into the same ol money moves; jabbin and duckin, counter punching then grapling. *yawn* good boxing is such a thing of the past.
He can be as mouthy as he wants.. Mosley had a chance if he danced around Mayweather, but it was never allowed. He can deliver.. I think it was awesome.. yes, the fight was a bit boring as ADS said, but still, no suprise of the outcome.... I love that clip
