But your interested in Morales vs. Maidana just like you were the recent Holyfield so-called 'fight'? atsch Talk about a contradiction!
without Soto-Antillion II i wouldnt of bothered with this card.so yes i for one will be buying it only because of the UC.except for Floyd and maybe a 3rd fight with JMM I think Pacs options are running out.
hope you're right re SSM but after seeing him against FMJ and getting a gift draw against Mora i think this will be a one sided beating.
Morales v Maidana is a better fight than Pacquiao v Mosley from a contest point of view. Holyfield and Williams is a more even fight than all of them. Where's the contradiction?
I think you're missing the point entirely. Holyfield is shot and has been for a decade. Watching him fight is more like paying homage to a great warrior. The same can be said of Morales, although he's not been past it for as long. Pacquiao and Mosley will be one sided... Pacquaio is in his prime, the other two are far removed from it.
Ohh please Ippy, your man love for Holyfield and Morales (and **** I'm a Morales fan also) is clouding your usual sane judgement.
I did and agree it was a poor fight. I also think Mora's 'style' (and I use the term 'style' very loosely) made for a lot of that problem. Pac is in his prime, I agree there, but at least there will be proper engagement in this fight, not like the Mora farce. Whoever told Shane to take that fight needs their ****ing head read!
Church for me is a Holyfield stream or digging out his series with Qawi, Bowe or Tyson... Mosley is going to get clowned by Pacquiao mate. It'll be brutal, I actually fear for his safey to a degree. He can't pull the trigger anymore. Sure he had a great moment in round 2 against Floyd, but he won't see past 8 or 9 with Manny. As I said, it's about maximising the dollars for Pacquiao at this stage of the game.
Go through Holyfield's opponents and tell me who he's fighting that will hurt him. Morales won't take anywhere near as much punishment as Mosley is going to. Like I said, it's about paying homage if I watch those guys fight. I have no interest in Pacquaio v Mosley as a contest. None. Because it won't be a contest.
