    Pacquiao vs Mosley?
    I have not heard a joke funnier than this.
    This fight means nothing, proves nothing, and should be boycotted. Mosley will lose this 100 times out of 100.
    Pacquiao training camp should only be 3 weeks...if that !
    Of course HBO and the rest of the boxing nation will hype this fight towards the end, just as they did with margarito, which is why this fight wont be boycotted and there will still be so much interest, but people will be forgetting the fact that this fight should not be taking place and is for all the wrong reasons.
    This is one of the reasons for why boxing is in such a disgrace right now, I feel embarresed for the sport and am furious with everyone involved in this, I will not make a prediction for this fight, or even analyse the 2 fighters because it is that much of a travesty!

    Ive added the poll, just to see what people think of this query!

    Pacquiao's just following Floyd's career path

    1: Risk your ass for years
    2: Move up in weight to 147
    3: Fight De la Hoya
    4: Cash in against a host of big money names

    Only difference is, he's actually taking worse fights than Mayweather did. At least Hatton, De la Hoya, Judah, Marquez, Mosely were living breathing, ranked, opponents when he faced them

    I dont disagree , but what are the other options , is Berto available , Mayweather , Martinez.

    Have we looked to see if these fighters were available , offered the fight and on what conditions.

    He couldve fought martinez, perhaps berto or cotto again!
    The martinez fight could have happened, if they wanted it hard enough i would have happened, not making the weight and being too small were just bull**** excuses! cotto would have given him a run for his money at 154 and berto was the best fight at 147, but OH NO, he decided to fight mosley as if that makes any sense !

    I dont like the fight at all goat , but I would want to know the terms of the contract with Mosley before I could make a decision.

    If Martinez and Berto we not offered the fight at all , then I will be very disappointed.

    Has the fight been signed and confirmed by the way?

    Why 'shame on Mosley'? He's just looking to upset the odds and get a massive payday in the process.

    wow just pathetic, this is even more pathetic then clottey and marg and thats saying something. i just think its hilarious that people call floyd out for cherry picking while the great pac takes on all comers haha really?

    i love that he'll fight bigger guys as long as they are over the hill or have little to no skills. he's quick to pull the trigger on marg but cant fight martinez even though he's the same size. but hey martinez actually has skills and something left in the tank so of course pac wont fight him.

    what a joke of a fight. this is just unbelievably pathetic.

    I got a text from my sisters ex last night. He was never big into boxing but he started watching it since our family always watches all the fights.
    He sent me a text showing ESPN confirming the fight. Then he said "What the ****? Isnt that the guy PBF beat up?"

    This guy used to admire Pac because of his style and obviously not PBF becasue ESPN always rags on him. I told him Pac is the same they all fight for the money when they get there.

    I mean if a guy who doesnt follow the sport recognizes its crap then it is crap.
