    I have no doubt it would possibly be one of the best fights ever...

    Mosley KO. Brutal KO. Not standard KO.

    Agreed 100%.

    Pac has a much better chance against Floyd.

    Mosley wins this. Pac can hit Mosley and will cause him a few problems but Shane wins this. He's as good a slugger as Pac and has a granite chin. This has to be Shane that used to move on the balls of his feet. GREAT fight for boxing.

    OK, not we are starting to get carried away. Stylistically they match up for an exciting fight, but Mosley can punch, and he can hurt Pac.

    Mosley has been with DLH, Forrest, and Mayorga. Pac isnt going to hurt him, I dont care how fast he is.

    And Mosley is an excellent body puncher as well.

    Pac would get KOed. An exciting fight nonetheless.

    Mayweather matches up MUCH better with Pacquiao. More economical with his punches, not as powerful.

    Mosely wins this fight due to the rehydration factor, Mosely's chin, his striking speed and power.

    Pac's gonna weigh in around 143 or so and not gonna gain much weight for that fight, if any at all.

    Mosely will weigh in just under the limit and rehydrate well over that.

    Much to my dismay, this fight will probably never happen.

    Mosely ain't no Ricky Hatton.

    He has never and never will disgrace himself in the ring by being completely outclassed by ANYONE

    He ain't nowhere near as slow as Hatton, has much better footwork, and is stronger than Hatton. And I think he has much better punching power. Anyone who would pick Pac obviously did not see the Margarito fight. Shane would beat Pac mercilessly.

    Mosley weighs 160 pounds on fight night; Pacquiao was only 148 last night. Not to mention that Shane has an iron chin, there's no way this fight should happen. Pac has better chances in beating Cotto and Floyd.

    Mosley has never fought a Jr welterweight in his life since he was a jr welterweight. He's always fought big welters and junior Middles. And the last huge Welter he fought, he beat him down. The so called iron chined Margarita. Or have you forgot?

    The Mosley that showed up for the Margarito fight beats Pacquiao down.

    Not comparing Margarito and Pac, but Mosley was a ****ing monster that night and fought like an ATG.

    Mosley has height, reach, strength, size advantage. And he has fast hands, and hits hard to the body, and is accurate as well.

    Not good for Pac stylistically. Mosley by KO in 9
