    Erik Morales showed it against Maidana, he was the huge underdog, and held his own after his eye was closed shut in the first round, Morales winning by one point but Maidana got the decision. Morales was a true warrior and even at his age he showed that every great fighter has enough experience to hang with a younger guy.

    James Kirkland was on the undercard of Morales vs. Maidana and he was supposed to walk all over Nobuhiro Ishida who was considered feather fisted with many losses on his record. Ishida destroyed Kirkland in the first round knocking him down 3 times before referee stopped the fight. It was a shock that left everyone in awe.

    Next was Victor Ortiz vs. Andre Berto. Ortiz was counted out and an underdog, everyone called him a quitter and said the undefeated Andre Berto will beat him, Ortiz and Berto went toe to toe and Ortiz pulled off the upset and won the WBC welterweight title.

    Juan Manuel Lopez got stopped by Orlando Salido a fighter who Yuriorkis Gamboa defeated and was supposed to be a easy fight for Lopez, but Lopez got stopped by the rugged Mexican and in the 8th round after taking too many unanswered shots the ref stops the fight,

    Now it’s Sugar Shane Mosley vs. Manny Pacquiao. Bob Arum is going to get a rude awakening, just like he was trying to make the boxing fans wait for a Lopez vs. Gamboa fight.

    Pacquiao's only saving grace may be that the name "Mosley" isn't a Mexican one.

    It'll look real bad if emmanuel loses to Mosley. You know all the stories about how his career was handled to avoid black fighters, and then he goes to lose to a black guy who doesn't even fight black.

    We ALL want to see Pac-Mayweather. So even Pac haters wouldn't want Manny to lose.

    yes, manny losing or retiring would ruin everything for mayweather.
    If pac loses then mayweather defeats him he would get 0 credit.

    It's been conclusively proven that was due to radiation poisoning.

    If Manny got KTFO by Mosley, the ESB boards would explode.
