    Well said man. :good It was around that time that I switched from favoring Floyd to favoring Manny in that fight, too.

    People hating on Mosley should just gtfo. He did his best what more can you ask off the man. Did you want him to get killed?

    Manny is a special fighter and he make everyone look bad just ask Ledweba,barrera,Clottey,Hatton,Marg,ODLH,Dias,Cotto

    I agree unless that superb boxer is too cautious and loses a close decision instead.

    Judah is super fast and has almost equal boxing skills to mayweather...Judah lacks discipline...this is why he ended up losing that fight...he fights nothing like pac and a lot like mayweather...except i give him the edge on power...(hence he has the only legitimate knock down on mayweather, which was landed on a clean counter)

    mosley fought a mayweather unlike what he was expecting..mayweather in the first two rounds stood right in front of mosley in a shell and thats why he got clocked..post rd2 mosley landed little to no punches in fact i believe there was a round that mosley landed like 4 punches..

    pac will land some punches but like all of mays opponents his punch output and percentages will be significantly low due to the fear of getting countered...

    i don't believe mosley didnt come to fight that night. the man just couldn't do it out fear of getting tko/ko in the process. shane was so hesitant to throw that powerful right coz he might get countered by pac step back short left cross.

    saying pac has many holes to take advantage of is easier said than done.

    Bwahahaha! This thread is hilarious.

    The better assessment should be that an old shot purely offensive fighter with no jab and no defense was able to COMPLETELY shut Pac down with SECOND RATE movement, footwork, and defense. Think about that? That would be like getting out Boxed by by Foreman on his bike then thinking you are going to beat Ali!

    Pac is a one trick pony. We now see EXACTLY why Pac never got in there with those "Slick Boxers" like Raheem. Pac would have been made a fool of 8/10 times! Pac is a sucker for movement and a jab.

    I see what you're saying, but you don't factor in other intangibles...

    For instance, Mosley is a big puncher. Look what Mosley did to Margarito and contrast that with what Pac did.

    Now, I know it's convienient for you to jump off that boat, but it is what it is.

    And it's obvious to me that Pac was still hesitant of Shane's power. Not to mention the fact that while Shane was running, it's very difficult to hit someone that doesn't even want to engage at all in a fight even if it's to counter his opponents offense.

    That combined with the fact that Manny is a short southpaw that has an uncomfortable distance to deal with in the first place which is remarkable within itself is going to make it very difficult to KO your opponent.

    Now obviously Mayweather is a superior counterpuncher and mover and all around boxer than Mosley, but there are questions still surrounding him about his 1) Power, his 2) Age - whether or not he's the same guy, and his 3) Chin and willingness to get dig deep.

    I mean, I understand he got hit maybe 3 times in his career and had to overcome adversity, but that's nothing compared to what a guy like Pac has gone through or Mosley for that matter.

    So basically, I know you love Bin Laden and ****, but I don't understand why you hate Pac so much. I get that you're not a religious man, but damn...is it that you hate the concept of God?

    Mosley reduced Pac's output significantly with his defensive approach and was (most of the time) very good at defending Pac's 2 money punches (right hook & straight left). Too bad he couldn't pull the trigger or was a ****ing ***** ass ***** for not trying.

    I am factoring in intangibles. I NOW see Pac getting STOMPED. :lol:

    Yes Mosley is, but power doesn't make a great Boxer. I know Mosley is a great, but he didn't pull the trigger.

    Yes Pac seemed a little weary, but how many rounds before you realize this guy isn't going to exchange? All 12 I guess. No it isn't hard. You cut off the ring and FORCE the exchange. Pac can't cut off a ring this damned late in his career! WTF?!? :lol:

    Another intangible. As a SP Manny could not get proper foot placement. Mayweather's reach is at least the same issue. So you now are agreeing. Knocking Mayweather out will be hard. I think it will be almost impossible.

    I agree again, it seems like FMJ has a much better right hand and fights 110% better off of the back foot. His power? WTF you think Richardson was going to throw in the towel for? His footwork? :lol: Age? Get out of here. Chin? His chin shouldn't even come into play as Pac needs to land.

    Pac's face is going to look like bologna and ketchup. Mayweather doesn't go through it because he understands The Sweet Science, i.e., Hit and NOT get hit! :deal

    No, I love Rule of Law and fighting wars from a morally superior position. I hate (not really) Pac because of his ignorant fans. Actually, you have earned a lot of respect from me lately. God? Huh? :huh
