Floyd Mayweather scored a unanimous points victory over fellow American Shane Mosley in a welterweight contest in Las Vegas on Saturday night. The 33-year-old extended his perfect record to 41 fights after winning 11 of the 12 rounds against the 38-year-old Mosley in the non-title bout. Mayweather came close to a first ever knockdown in round two but hit back to win 119-109, 119-109 and 118-110. "I gave the fans what they wanted to see," said the five-weight champion. "I went toe-to-toe. That's not my style but I wanted to give them that kind of fight and I knew I could do it. "They wanted to see me moving, and coming forward and that's what I did. "We should have pressed the attack a lot earlier and we could have got the knockout, but Shane Mosley is a tough customer and he is one hell of a fighter." Mayweather, who outclassed Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez in his most recent bout in September after a 21-month retirement, said his early scare focused him. "That's all with the territory of boxing - only the strongest survive," he said. "This is a contact sport, some time you are going to get hit with big shots, you must suck it up and keep fighting hard like a warrior." Mayweather was set to fight Philippine superstar Manny Pacquiao before a row over pre-fight blood-testing derailed negotiations, and insisted afterwards the match-up could still happen if Pacquiao agreed to the testing. "If Manny Pacquiao wants to fight, it's not hard to find me," he said. "If Manny Pacquiao will take the blood and urine tests, we can make the fight happen for all the fans." Mosley, who has 46 wins from 52 fights and weighed in one pound heavier than Mayweather at 10st 7lbs, had not fought since a ninth-round stoppage of Antonio Margarito in January 2009. His record now stands at 46 wins, six defeats and 39 knockouts. Source: BBC
