    If Shane goes to battle against Pac ready, and not nervous as he did against Floyd, he'll KO Pac. But if he came in there without confidence and full of anxiety as he did in his Floyd fight, he'll get KTFO.

    I say, Shane by KO. :deal

    Prime Mosley would've likely beat Pac, as he was not only bigger and stronger but actually FASTER than Pac as well, I think Mayweather would've had a very tough time as well and likely lose but with his superior skill, who knows. I can tell you this though, Prime Mosley would have NEVER lost to Cotto.

    I think a prime Mosley puts on a great fight with Manny in a fight that could go either way. The only thing it seems Mosley has lost it seems, is reflexes. He's a bit slower and less explosive, but it seems he's still got the rest that made him Mosley. Oscar is a different story. A prime Oscar is a much different fighter than the one that faced Manny. I think Oscar could do everything needed to outbox Manny. The speed may present a big problem for Oscar, but I think he could take him.

    Bull ****, Shane is old & over the hill which is why Arum made this fight. Shane looked like **** against Mora, just as ODLH did against Forbes, in between fights with Maywweather and Pac.

    Pac is my favorite fighter right now, but both prime Oscar and Prime Shane beat Pac convincingly. Prime Tito at 147 and prime Ike Quartey dominate him too... Add Vernon Forrest to the list.
    This WW era is weak.

    the mosely who beat oscar in the first fight was an elite welterweight. there are very few welterweights in history who he wouldn't be able to compete with. i would favor mosely in that fight, but i don't see him obliterating pac. i think it would be competitive.

    i think pac is gonna beat old man mosely up, but i hope i'm wrong. it would be awesome to see sugar shane repeat his success with margarito, but i think that might have been shane's last great performance.

    Why do you think Arum made this fight? Shane is almost 40. This is a farce.

    Manny is a better fighter P4P, but Manny could not handle a prime Shane Mosley at Welter. Shane was a ****ing monster.

    With Pacquiao on ROIDS, anything seems possible. Prime Mosley should/would kill him, but who knows with Pacroid.

    I believe both Mosley and de la Hoya defeat Pacquiao at 147. Wait, it'd be at a 143 catchweight. And Pacquiao would still get bullied around.
