    "Oh yeah, I've been sparring; a long time ago. I've been sparring with everybody basically. They put 'em in one at a time and everybody goes like a round with me; one round and then I go to the next guy. They go as hard as they can go and then another guy comes in the next round. We're working hard...I've watched him live, I've watched him workout, I've watched him at the Wild Card gym, so I've watched him at different places. I'm pretty familiar with what he does and what he likes to do...I got a lot of the pinoy fans riled up now," stated three-division world champion "Sugar" Shane Mosley,

    If he hits Pac with a clean shot in the early rounds, he can knock him out. Hopefully not though lol

    If Pac plants his feet... let's Shane plant his feet... and bang with each other then Mosley would definitely have a chance. Margarito showed what Mosley can do if you let him unload on you. However, Shane is horrible at dealing with movement or a fighter who makes Shane come to them. He follows them around the ring and throws one punch at a time. If Manny keeps moving, and giving him a ton of different looks and angles he is gonna eat Mosley up.

    All Mosley needs to do is stand in the centre of the ring, plant his feet and time Manny coming in. One clean, hard shot and it's over. But if he chases the little Pinoy he will lose a wide points decision.

    mosley knows pacquiao is fast but he still cant deal with his speed. mosley = loss UD and gets hurt when trying to be a hero and engage

    he had a very good shot back in hes prime days but those are long gone. lets call this fight what it is.

    its a tuneup for pacquiao which will lead onto nothing big because mayweather wont happen and there is basically no one else for him to fight at the moment

    (and dont mention martinez. the guy fights at a larger weight then pacquiao and pacquiao has stated for some time that he does not want to go any higher which is acceptable because he has allready claimed titles in 8 diff divisions (world first)

    i spose he could try out berto...

    I'm hoping, Because as much fun *******s & casuals had watching Margo get owned.. it was pretty boring just seeing PAC unload combos.. I want an exciting back and forth compertive match not some one sided massacre..

    I hope it delivers a few surprises to make it worth the PPV.

    wow it must be that easy , huh? Manny won't get KO'd by one punch. shane isn't some huge KO puncher, he's got some heavy hands but one punch isn't going to alter the course of the fight. Manny has a great chin.

    Really? You think he can knock him out with one shot?

    An accumulation of clean, hard shots from Mosley is the more likely of taking Pacquiao out.

    He's got 3 rounds i'd say.

    He will gas pretty quick trying to cut off Pacquiao.

    Then Manny will take him apart.
