    If Mosley gets by Berto, PAC is running for election in the Philippines so a spring fight isnt possible, watch for a fall 2010 clash.

    It makes sense from GBP to keep money in the house. Arum would love punking Floyd

    It will be incredibly promoted and I wouldnt be surprised if it does 2 million PPVs. I just have the feeling Floyd is in for a surprise if he asks over 50%.

    This fight makes sense and Shane has guts. something Floyd does not have . Pacman and Shane are great fighters. This is a natural fight.

    I remember him saying he will look elsewhere if Floyd's demands get ridiculous.

    I think this fight could very well happen and it should. Mosley is the lineal welterweight champion, Floyd is not. Look at Mosley's last few fights, he has fought nothing but the best. He fought Cotto and Margarito, guys Floyd didnt fight. Floyd's last 2 fights were against blown up guys who moved up in weight. He hasnt fought a real welterweight since Baldomir.

    Bring it on, Pac vs Mosley, fight of the decade.

    That is true, over 50 percent might cause a problem with egos. But they will try and give Floyd everything they can since this fight is huge and people want it. Floyd would be smart to take this fight. He is bigger and I think fast and he could beat Pacman. If he wins he could retire and be in a pretty good spot in the rankings. If he does not fight Pacman then you know Floyd has a confidence problem and really does not think he is the best fighter around. That would be clear.

    exactlyl. Shane fights them all. Shane seems to have more confidence and he is not afraid of failing in case the fight does not go his way. Floyd is doing the no try no fail thing, even though he fights, he is not trying to fight the top guys which Shane has. So how can he lose that way?

    Guts to take roids maybe. But if PAc wants a fighter who isnt 40 and struggled with Cotto and Mayorga, he'll take Money.

    Shane is a huge name. Thing is Pacman's people did not want to fight him before. Shane is a bigger name than Cotto. Something about Shane makes Pacman and Floyd's people not want to fight him. Both of them are going away from Shane. So Shane must be good.

    Mayweather called Mosley out twice and he declined. And Mayweathers win record at 130-154 is better then who Mosley beat.

    But you know, if Pac doesn't fight Floyd, he is snubbing Floyd, but if Floyd doesn't fight Pac, he is ducking Pac.

    I agree but Floyd better take 50% or he'd have 0 legacy.

    Pac would beat Shane almost as bad as he beat Cotto. If Shane ws confused with Mayorgas movement, Pac would be hell on him. Better hope he lands a hayemaker.

    I would rather see Shane vs. Pac any day. Floyd is gonna make his fight with Manny look like Floyd-Oscar all over again. Big event, but, boring fight.
