    Just a theory, Roach didn't want Pac to fight Mosley before due to size.. any chance Mosley help back in his fight with Mora to lure Pac into feeling comfortable to pick him. You can bet an impressive destruction of Mora would have put Mosley right back on the back burner. If so it's a pretty damn smart move on Shane's part and I think is is smart enough to do something like that.

    He chased Mora round the ring, I don't exactly think he was holding back.

    No way.

    Mosley knew that if lost he would lose any chance of a big fight anymore. That guy was pushing hard.

    Mosley doesn't have the temperament to hold back, usually. If he's worried he might be losing, then he really, really doesn't have the temperament to hold back. My take anyway.

    Paul Williams held back so he can get KO'd in 2, that way no one will be scared of him anymore.

    No. It was just a terrible match up. Mora is a terrible stylistic match up for just about anyone out there.

    Glad to see Mosley getting one last big pay day, but I don't see Arum making this fight if Mosley had a decent chance of winning.

    judging from last two fights, Arum dont need to be a genius. He got his pick again, although sometimes it can just back fire, just.:good

    IMO Mora won easily.the draw was a gift so no.Shane is getting badly beaten IMO.lets hope he can pull out one last
    good performance and at least end the fight on his feet if
    not win.
