    Remember this...A thread I created back in December.

    So what do we have coming up on May 7....An Orthodox fighter vs a Southpaw. And it's two fighters that both come forward, will not BACK-UP, and Although neither leads with their heads like Bradley, Pacquiao is so damn awkward that a clash of heads is definitely possible. But in the Braldey vs Alexander fight....the clash of heads ended a pretty ACTION-LESS NIGHT with both fighters looking for their opening. I am afraid that in this up-coming fight....a clash of heads (bad cut) may ruin an EXCITING FIGHT. I hate to rain on everyone's parade....But STYLES MAKES FIGHTS, AND SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA PREPARE YOURSELF FOR EVERYTHING. I hope it doesn't happen, especially since Arum has a SHITTY undercard schedule.

    Good point dude but personally I think Manny will use angles and work from the outside and stop Mosley late. He'll keep Shane turning who will run him into **** all night long.

    Hey numb nuts, Pac has always been southpaw and all of his other big opponents were orthodox. How many times was there a major cut? Once like 6 years ago with Morales, thats it.

    Bradley headbutts every opponent and there are cuts in every fight of his.

    There are headbutts in a lot of Pac's fights. Like darryl said, with two offensive fighters in opposite stances it's almost guaranteed to happen. Assuming they aren't headbutting each other on purpose, it's really a matter of luck whether somebody gets cut from it or not.

    Valid. Shane hasn't really been cut too badly, has he? I know Manny has some scar tissue. So if anything, a stoppage might come from a cut on Manny and he'll win on cards.

    Shane has only had one cut against Forrest in their first fight from a clash of heads.

    iirc, pac was just keeping it easy and playing with solis until there was a clash of heads that put pac in a panic mode and signal the beginning of the end of the fight by pac taking it seriously.

    Pac got a lot when he clashed heads with Morales

    that always pissed me off

    Manny will fight Shane on the outside. Manny will not let shane do what he usually does: clinching. That's why Bayless gets into the picture: to prevent Shane from doing his usual punch-then-clinch move.
