If Shane agrees to fight PAc at a catch weight, I hope Manny kicks his ass...

    Great Champions are human and they make mistakes too......just not as often. Floyd has been caught and he is not unbeatable. He's just very hard to beat given all the things he's got working for him.

    I'm not saying Floyd will loose to Shane or PAC. All I'm saying is this is boxing and even the GREATEST boxers of all time lost or had holes in their overall game. I don't like the "if" or "almost" mentality either, but I look at those words and how they are used diffently than you. Whenever anyone uses the word "if" to justify why they lost or why someone else lost or didn't perofrm well I look at that as an excuse. But "if" I see something occur in a fight or I see mistakes that someone makes I just use that as a way to make a logical prediction or assumpiton that history can repeat itself. Not that it would but the possibility is there based on track record.

    Thanks and you honeslty have great arguements. It makes me think which is why your threads gets so much attention. Its good to have debates like this b/c I know I get more perspective seeing your point of view b/c you give logical and rational arguements. I do understand why you call out *******s b/c like many boxing fans they are clearly biased and post agruements without soild facts or reasoning backing them up. Got me doing alot of critical thinking Nallege.:good

    Boxing is anywhere from 70% to 90% mental depending on which "expert" you ask. A divorce is a huge mental burden for most. I actually didn't know Jink and Shane were on the brink of seperating. All I know is Shane and PAC have got to be ready 100% to beat one anther.

    Yo....what is that fight??? I can't tell but it looks like Shane vs Marg. I did watch that fight but I didn't hear Shane talk about his marital problems. I thought everything was alright on the Mosely front......If I were Shane I don't know if I could deal with a woman like Jink either. She seems to be a little bitchy and controling. I can't have too much of either from my woman.

    Bull****.

    Mosley has fought the best and ducked no one. Have you seen him fight?He is willing to fight anyone you tool. He is willing to lose weight to fight Manny. Whay dont Manny eat some steaks and fight at 147 like he did against De La Hoya?? Why cos he will get his ****in ass kicked by an ATG.

    Shane doesn't duck anyone and he always looks for the best challenges. So its no surprise he's willing to sacrafice a bit to meet PAC somewhere in the middle in order to make this fight happen. Besides....Shane is looking to take PACs P4P crown......PAC ain't looking to be the WW kingpin. So why doesn't shane just drop down to 140 and take not only the P4P crown but the Jr WW crown as well??? And why is PAC not telling Shane that he has to meet him at 140?? I'll tell you why....b/c both fighters want to make the fight happen. Both are willing to sacrafice a bit to see that the fans see this mega fight in the future.

    First off, no fighter is unbeatable as you know. Second, fighters do go home and look at the tape and realize that I can't do this or that like I did in my lst fight or any other fights. The funnny thing is that against pure boxers, watching tape is almost useless, but when watching tape of a guy like Margarito, watching tape helps.

    You can watch tape of guys like Pac and Floyd all night long. You might find more holes in Pac's defense, but you can't substitute PAc's feints when training for a fight. Pac's defense is a whole lot tighter than we think. Tape helps in a sense that you learn what a guy likes to do, but the other guy who is watching tape watches for, "what if he knows I'll take this away, do I try this" method. Boxing is a sport that is mastered only by the greatest of the great.

    I have the utmost respect for Manny Pacquiao, and I get on *******s nerves when they dis Floyd because it mirrors their thoughts when they dis Floyd, but I know PAc is s special fighter with a unique style.

    The divorce itself might or might not bother a fighter(probably not), but the pending outcome of a divorce might alter a fighter like Shane's thinking in that he has to keep making money so that his wife doesn't take it all. Gee, now I'm sounding like a **** lol.... Eddie Murphy said, "HALF"! lol...
