    First things first Pacquiao deserves a ton of credit.(I picked Margo to win, pretty stupid huh) That was impressive!! Pac did look very good.

    But before we go on and on about how great he is. Because he is the best fighter of this era. But I hate to burst people's bubble but Shane Mosley's win over Margarito was much more impressive. Plus it ended in a destructive KO.

    Do I think Mosley can beat Pacquiao, No I don't. But this performance needs to be put in perspective. Mosley's looked much better then Pac against Margo.

    Agreed yet again we see Pac has no power and relies on speed. Shane pushed him back and destroyed him. Pac ran around like a little bee stinging you. You feel it but its nothing and doesn't affect you,

    Mosley has the size and strength that Manny doesn't. You didn't expect a replica event did you? Manny destroyed him in a much more different way.

    And? lol.... Mosley was also a very strong welter who fought numerous times at 154, and was fighting a Margarito that weighed in at 147.

    Pac was never even supposed to be at 147, and fought a Marg that outweighed him by what.... close to 20lbs? :lol:

    No comparison. I dont really see the point here.

    And I dont even think given the beating, the circumstances (weight difference, height difference, the complete one sided and grotesque beating) that it really was that much better.

    Throwig a punch and then clinching looks impressive and against a weight drained opponent. Margarito had to lose close to 30 pounds in 4 weeks in the Mosley fight to fit in the 147 division.

    PAC fought the bigger margarito, berthed conditioned one as well.

    And people need to know that Pac was punching upwards against gravity. Its amazing he manage to do what he did to Margo, who was in great shape.

    No, no it wasnt. Even Margarito will tell you he was better and more prepared for this fight than he was Mosley.
