Shane Mosley on Upcoming Fight Against Mayweather: 'I Will Knock Floyd Out'
By Randall Stevens ♦ Published 04/14/2010

Shane MosleyWith the May 1st showdown between Floyd Mayweather and "Sugar" Shane Mosley approaching quickly, both fighters are making their rounds, promoting the fight heavily at every stop.

To make it more interesting, you know there would be a little smack talking.

During a recent stop by George Lopez's late night show, "Lopez Tonite," the comedian asked Mosley flat out: "Can you knock Floyd out?"

What do you think he said? Yes, of course.

"Definitely," Mosley replied to Lopez's question.

"Will you knock Floyd out?" the comedian followed up.

"I will knock Floyd out," the boxer said.

According to Sugar Shane, he's got two things Mayweather has yet to face -- power and speed, both of which will tip the scales in his favor.

"Mayweather is gonna feel the power, but not only that, he's gonna see the speed. The speed's gonna be the difference in that fight," Mosley said.

In Floyd Mayweather's nearly 15-year professional boxing career, he's remained undefeated, held titles in five weight classes, and defeated some of the best fighters in the sport's history. Some of those include victories over Oscar De La Hoya, Zah Judah, Arturo Gatti, and Ricky Hatton, among others.

Now, Mosley will try to put a blemish on his perfect record when they hop into the ring on May 1st at Las Vegas' MGM casino. The fight will also air on HBO Pay-Per-View.

    I'm rooting for Shane to win. I like Mayweather, but he never faced a true welterweight besides Baldomir and Judah.

    I don't know if Shane can beat Mayweather. Shane just stands there and tries to walk through punches. His speech a bit slurred because of it. Floyd is a counter puncher and too illusive. It's not as cut and dry as Mosley wants to make it.

    I hope Shane Mosley reads this. You need to be aware of Floyd Mayweather's elbows. In his (Mayweather) fights with Hatton and Castillo, Mayweather used his elbow on numerous occasions, trying to elbow these guys in the face and knock their head off, and was warned by the referee to quit using his elbows but he continued to elbow these guys anyway. You need to have someone watch for that in your fight with this elbowing boxer.
