    If Pac is faster than Mosley, it's not by much, if any.

    I said far in advance that Pacquiao would beat ODLH and Hatton. But if he fights Mosley ( which I doubt would happen) Pac would get decapitated. Mosley hits harder than any WW. He would have virtually every advantage.

    hmm says... I still say "no". Roach knows Pac best and if Mosley's strength was a real threat to Pac then he wouldn't be pushing for the possibility, even with Cotto. The weight will be a determining factor.

    Mosley has Pacquiao leaving the ring in a stretcher with a dent on the side of his head the size of Mosleys fist.

    Yes and he is also very quick himself. I give you my word that if Mosley lands one flush right hand on Pacquiao the fight will be over. With Mosley's speed do you really want to bet he can't land one?

    Uh roach isnt pushing for a fight with shane. He said he will only fight shane at 142. Which he knows Shane cant make.

    I don't believe he has any intention of letting Pac fight either one.

    hmm says... I am very aware. Hence I said, pushing for the possibility (cause he mentioned the two in various interviews depending on how the cards fall) then state "weight will be a determining factor" cause we already know he doesn't want Shane or Cotto at 147...I thought he said 144.

    You didn't say he was slower, you said he is slow. That's stupid!

    hmm says... I think there is a high possibility. Back then, Team Pac and Pac said he wouldn't mind fighting Margarito. Remember how he said he would "outbox" Margarito at WW? So I see no reason why Team Pac/Pac woudn't give it a go with one of them. It will further his ATGness if he does win and depending on the weight, he can try and claim a 7th division before he retires and be the first in history to do so (better to try then never tried at all). Roach said Pac can retire if he beats PBF (even with 2-3 fights left), but I'm sure if PBF gets through JMM and tries to ask for the lion's share of the cut from Pac, Team Pac will opt to face other opponents (I know ppl will say he's ducking). That's just how I see it but anything is possible.
