    am i the only one here that is a little bit surprised at how pacman not accepting the fight with mosley for whatever reasons is getting him no accusations of ducking mosley, like mayweather been accused of ducking mosley for bigger paydays wouldnt pacman be doing the same exact thing, by choosing the mayweather fight over mosley instead of fighting both, but when mayweather does this he is villanized and called a coward, but when pacman does it its because his team advised him not too

    Floyd is despised. It comes down to who is liked and who has the more aggressive style when it comes to Floyd and Pac. Why do you think Pac wins the popularity contests in most forums betwen the two lol...

    If shane was a 140lb fighter i'd say he was ducking him but he isnt.

    What a ******ed thread/post. I'm a Mosley fan but Mosley should be focusing on the Cotto/Clottey winner and hope it's Cotto so he can get a rematch and avenge a recent defeat.

    Roach made it clear even before they stepped in the ring with DLH that they plan to move down to 140 after that fight and STAY there, where's the double standards?, you're the one lacking. If Mosley really wants it then move down, if he can't do that then others will, Pacquiao is #1, if those guys want him they come to him, he earned his position.

    Well Pac has specially stated he wants to campaign at 140. Floyd is dragging JMM to 147. Mosley is 147. Does something not add up to you?

    what difference does that make you idiot pac went up to fight dlh why not shane and anyway shane was gonna come down to 143 for pac and drain himself to make the weight, but people still applaud pac and for the person who mentioned that pac recieved criticism for not fighting raheem, his critics are minute in comparison to mayweather whom everyone jumps on so that point isnt even valid, sometimes you have to put your personal bias' aside and judge people on an even playing field no manny paquiao fan is capable of that, and keep in mind i do like paquiao a great bit and i am not particularly fond of mayweather but i have the upmost respect for his ability

    once again he had no problem coming up to 147 to fight a weight drained over the hill dlh, whats everyones answer to that, i think that sounds like cherry picking to me, either fight marquez again or go up against a lesser opponent in the old weight drained dlh for a lot more money

    Pac-delahoya fought at a catchweight. Pac was 135 and oscar was 154 and both agree to fight at 147. Just like floyd and marquez are fighting at a catchweight.

    SO all these talk about pac should be fighting at 147 are bs. Although i would love to see him fight at 147 he will be in a disadvantage since he is not a welterweight.

    Pac´s camp is asking Shane to drop 4 pounds while JMM had to move up two divisions to fight Floyd.

    Hmm funny thing is didnt Floyd do the same thing??? did he not start at 130??? Hasnt he been fighting guys that are bigger??? Did he go to Oscar???

    What is comes down to is simple, Floyd has never lost a fight, he talks alot of **** and then goes in the ring and backs it up. People dont like that, so for Floyd it will always be the go that he doesnt fight which would have been the one to beat him. Seen it all before. Pac gets a pass. If not for his team calling Shane out to start with it may not have ever come up.

    My thinking is Pac has no intent on fighting any of the three, Floyd, Cotto, and Mosley. I personally dont have a problem with that, the problem that I have is the morons that think that fighters have to go to pac after he was the one doing the calling out.

    Marquez called out Floyd then went to him, he did ask for Floyd to come down. This is classic Arum, throw **** out and see what sticks. Knowing all along that making demands that Cotto and Shane come down and Floyd taking 35% would make the fights very hard to make. But because many in the public is buying the BS its working to a degree. Mistake they are making is throwing in Shane and Cotto, who arent hated fighters so they will start to see some backlash because of it.
