    its a different sport they dont have to make weight.

    ok sir explain to me why mosley was exhausted after 3 rounds when he wasn't even getting hit. explain to me why his stamina was so bad after the 2nd round.

    Pac over Cotto, without doubt. Floyd's victory was great but well predicted. Most thought that Cotto was too big, too strong and too technically sound to lose the way he did to Pac. Pac utterly destroyed him.

    We've seen Cotto hurt, wobbled, rocked, beaten and destroyed before...so it was nothing NEW. And Cotto was Damaged goods...As said by Roach in the Infamous "Pacquiao Exposed" video. But Floyd Made Mosley look Slow and Ordinary...as he did to everyone one of his previous opponents. Just to show you how good Mayweather's defense is....Every poster in ESB can count the number of times Mayweather has been Hit Solid and Hurt...(Corley, Judah and Mosley). Think about it...3 times in 41 fights, has Floyd been hit flushed and hurt. So lets ask this question: How many times has Pacquaio been hit, Hurt, KD and/or Knocked out...Too many to count.

    Pac destroying Cotto.

    As i said before the fight... Mosley struggled against Mayorga, outboxed by Cotto, and didn't look good against Vargas.Mosley got a lot of credit for beating the disarmed Margaritto.

    Good win for PBF. good name to add to his resume.

    Floyd over Mosley.

    Mosley was in much better condition than Cotto. Cotto was coming off of a beat down from Margarito with loaded gloves and a gift decision victory over Clottey. Margarito made Cotto quit and I'd imagine that wouldn't help his confidence. Against Clottey he didn't look good at all and only had one clear round in which he was better than Joshua(round 6). Mosley's last fight was against Margarito and he destroyed him. He beat Margarito from pillar to post for the entire fight and was more highly regarded than Cotto was at the time. Roach said the reason why they picked Cotto was because he had "slowed" and they avoided Mosley because he was "too good".

    You dont think that PBF would have been hurt more if he didnt cherrypick most of his career?

    If i remember correctly Cotto was outboxing Tony. oh and was getting hit with bricks.

    Pacman next. Paul Williams deserves a big fight with someone... pac or may

    Are you talking about the same 38 year old Mosley that hadn't fought in a year and a half that looked like he was going down after he landed 2 bombs on Floyd, from exhaustion? :lol:

    Let's see:


    Cottoe was a severly weight drained zombie vs. PacGwire; Mosley was not

    Mosley still has a lot left in the tank; Cottoe was past it after his gift decision against Shane

    Cottoe is/was a stationary target with less than subpar boxing skills and no chin; Mosley is anything short of having a weak chin and has great boxing skills/speed.

    Without a doubt, Money's ass whooping over Shane is heads and shoulders over PacGwire's hand picked, easy target, riped for the taking "victory" over Cottoe.

    Pac over Cotto.Everytime Pac has fought,there's always been people thinking it was a mountain too tall.You had people saying Mosley could beat Floyd,but Floyd was still the overwhelming favorite. There's no question Pac dismantling Cotto is more unexpected and more impressive.

    How can anyone say PBF?

    To quote Mayweather himself "Vernon Forrest, Winky Wright and Miguel Cotto all “****ed you up”.

    So, you wanna give more credit to PBF for beating Mosely who was beaten by Cotto who Pac destroyed?

    I love Mayweather but for shock value it has to be Pac vs Cotto
