    So if Mosley is too good a fighter for Pacquiao, what does that make Floyd?

    Doesn't discredit Pac, just gives Floyd credit for his masterclass.

    it shows mosley at this age was ducked while floyd accepted the fight and outclassed him. Pacman could have beaten shane as well but his camp dodged it

    Shows PAc will only fight a fighter that is either Ka-put ala hatton as he was almost ko'd by lazcano. walking corpse (DLH) or cuts weight and meets at a catch weight Cotto,. He viewed Mosely as to fresh and To on top of his game to make a fight. roach that is.

    Absolutely nothing. Did not hear it come from the horse's mouth which is Pac.

    I will lose a lot of respect for Roach if he comes out saying Floyd beat a old, washed up Shane tonight and he wasn't impressive. Especially after saying how Shane might be too good for Pac at welterweight.

    please, some floyd fans should stop being an ass. we all know that it was roach comments and it has really nothing to do on how pacquiao would not want or want to fight mosley just like when ellerbe said that cotto back then was not a draw when asked why floyd would not fight him. floyd and pac have the final say and who they want to fight.

    Its safe to say Mosley is off the table for Pac.

    And when did Roach make that comment? This was around the time of the Hatton fight I believe. No one in their right mind was thinking of putting Pacquiao in there with Mosley. Obviously things have changed.

    I don't think anyone expected how bad Mosley was going to look tonight either.

    Floyd put a wrench in the wheels of his detractors tonight. Full credit to him.

    Nah. I don't think proper testing... that is to say I don't think anyone was against it. It's just how it was brought up was the problem and even on the technical side there's issues. However once the sanctioning body requires blood testing, all that is moot. So the sooner those bums come up with something the better right?
