I'm a huge Pac fan - but I'm so sad to say I can't see him beating Shane.

    Nazim was Hopkins trainer in the Taylor rematch and i heard Hopkins was killing himself to make weight. As good as Nazim is, he won't help that much of Mosley draining himself. At 38 years old is going to takes it tool on Mosley badly. I swear some people need to wake up to reality if they think Mosley will be just fine weighing at 144 or 143 pounds without any problems. If people think Pac is unstoppable then why don't their hero prove by facing the best at thie weight class instead of draining themself?

    Floyd had never fought at 160 before. Pac has proven he can make 147 comfortably.

    Your logic = ****.

    Damn Blade where do you keep finding these avatars? You should be declared official no.1 esb ass-man!

    back to the point, yeah unfortunately don't feel great for pac's chances, though weight could be the one saving issue perhaps? SSM often fights at lmw so not sure if he could get down to much below 144 without it affecting him.

    Though after DLH and hatton i am done betting against pac, maybe roach can come up with a game plan? Roach vs richardson, interesting one - top 2 trainers in the game for me right now.

    Because welterweight has never been nor ever will be Pac's weight class.

    Because he would be giving away far too much weight and there was no need to do so. Pac IS a naturally much smaller and lighter man, it is a futile gesture to give his opponent every possible advantage out of choice.

    Pac ain't lighter. He can still pack a punch and Mosley will feel it if the fight is at 144 or 143 pounds. I think being weight drain is more dangerous then a fighter moving up in weight.

    Is Roach seeing something or is he wrong is the question?

    Pac has never fought anyone who regularly fights at welterweight. Oscar hadn't fought there in about 7 years. Expecting him to fight Mosley at ww is the same as expecting Floyd to fight someone like Winky, who was a lmw who then moved up to mw.

    Pac has never fought anyone who regularly fights at welterweight, same as Floyd had never fought anyone who regularly fights at middleweight.

    Floyd never done it, neither should Pac. Both are too small for those weight classes.

    This has to be the quote of the day lol. sloth on temazepam LMAO.

    I am going to go out on a limb here and actually pick Pacquiao to win this fight by being 1st to the punch and or being the counter puncher in this fight because once Manny lands some flush shots on Shane, Shane tends to get a bit ragid in there. Shane also has a new trainer and he will be coming into this fight with a gameplan but I still think that if Manny can somehow be in and out and be 1st to land and get out he could steal rounds. No KO's just a 12 round fight with Mosley trying to land that big right hand. If he is going to win he will have to be the bully and he might get countered too much, he is easy to hit and he has not got the best defense.

    When Pac weighed in for the fight he weighed more the Oscar. He comfortably made 147. Using your logic Floyd didnt comfortably make 154 since he came in at 150.

    It was fine for him when he destroyed De la hoya at that weight class right? So why not fight Mosley at the same weight class? Oh i know cause Pacquiao don't have the guts to fight Mosley at Mosley conferable weight. This is a double standard once again with Mayweather fighting smaller fighters but ppl bash on it but yet when Pacquiao fight fighters twice ( Mosley is next) by moving down in weight to drain themself it's ok.

    No its not. Floyd never in his life was close to getting to 160. Pac has made 147 and looked good doing so getting a stoppage victory.

    If he wants to fight Mosley, fight him at 147, dont make him drain to a weight he has never fought at in 10 years so you can hurt him like Oscar.
