    That was a long time ago and by no means is this the same Mosley, so history won't repeat itself. Mosley won't get a UD tomorrow. KO inside of four rounds. I put all my vcash on this. All 75.

    Mosley is going to lose almost every round in a humiliating send off.

    I think I went from 500 to 0 (and got the 75 consolation prize)...If I was being absolutely objective, I'd predict an outcome similar to Pacquiao-DLH and not Mosley-DLH I.

    **** that, though. Going subjective on this one. Mosley KO4.

    I am honestly not writing Mosley off as much as I probably should.

    I remember seeing floyd's legs buckle in that fight and thinking "Oh yeah, this mother ****er can punch"

    Not that I expect that, I just think Manny is gonna get hit, and these might be the hardest punches he's ever felt, even considering Cotto.

    Pacquiao's chin is very underrated, IMO, but not sure how it would stand up to Mosley. It really depends how "on" Shane is when the bell rings. If he's in one of those zones where he can pull the trigger at will, he's going to be very dangerous.

    De La Hoya fought the wrong fight, trying to walk through Mosley looking for an exciting KO and to regain some of his lost machismo and respect from the Trinidad fight. Pacquiao is not that stupid. That's why he won most of his biggest fights, and De La Hoya lost all his. Pac will be on his toes the whole night. He'd be a fool to try and fight it out at close quarters with Mosley

    When the hell has Pac faced anyone as good as whitaker, Hopkins, prime Mosely, prime PBF, prime Trinidad, or even Quartay? De La Hoya has fought much better fighters than pac.

    That said De La Hoya had a chin, and felt comfortable taking shots. He thought he could outfight Mosley but Mosley was too fast and has great chin of his own. If pac fought that Mosley I don't see how Pac would win.

    I agree, but Pac has not fought nearly the amount of great fighters Hoya has. Hoya fought the best boxing had to offer.

    I'm worried for Mosley.. I think Manny can take his shots.. If one really hurts Manny, then boy, Mosley's gonna get it.. Cos we all know Manny comes right back for you..
