    Manny is going to take the beating of his life. Shane will find him a lot more early and often than Cotto did. Shane just has better hands than Cotto period. Even at his age and still has more speed than Miguel. So expect easy to hit Manny to get tatooed like we haven't see in a while or maybe ever!

    I think having someone not only better but faster than him for the first time really screwed him, I think he is actually much worse now as he is nearly 40, Pac may not be as skilled as Mayweather defensively, but he uses his legs and moves in and out, Mosley might get stopped this time.

    Shane couldn't even beat Cotto, and that was 3 yrs ago, how the hell is he better, when he is in fact old as hell, Manny is gonna whoop the old man.

    Shane is shot, he can't pull the trigger, his speed and reflexes have gone downhill bigtime, after the Mayweather fight I thought he was bad, but against Mora he looked like ****.

    Hand speed and power in the early rounds. Like Roger Mayweather says, " speed and power alone don't win fights". You fight from the neck up". This is why I'm finding this attitude from fight fans that this is such an easy fight for Manny just a little peculiar. I really don't think Shane is going to get a decision but this should be a good fight for at least 10 rounds and possibly 12. It would not surprise me at all to see Shane lose a very close decision. And it wouldn't totally shock me if Pac got KO'd!

    This. I am done with trying to believe in the unbelievable. After the Audley Harrison farce. Expect the drumbeat from Top Rank that Mosley is going to win. I just hope that Shane retires after this one and has his faculty's intact and is not too badly hurt. Its just a money fight.

    Shane had more than a few opportunities to beat Cotto. He was only out of the fight after he gave away the 11th. He wasn't paying attention and his corner did nothing for him. That's not an excuse just the truth. 115 -113, 116-113 and 115 -113 Cotto doesn't exactly display dominance over an opponent. Shane still has faster and more powerful hands in the early rounds of any fight compared to Cotto.

    Mosely was a little slicker when he was a lightweight, but yeah when he was at his best (which was 135) he just overwhelmed his opponents with speed and power. He was never a slick boxer like Mayweather or guys like Sweet Pea were.
