Hi Based on his last two performances,I understand logically why Mosley is given no chance of upsetting pacquiao by most observers. However,I have a feeling that Mosley is going to be a LOT more competitive in this fight than most people seem to think. I expect him to take the centre of the ring,use his jab often and hurt Pacquiao as he comes in. Infact,I actually pick Mosley to win by stoppage!
aum - your username is suspiciously close to Arum :huh...are you taking to the internet forums now to try convince us fans that this is a competitive bout, and we shouldn't write Mosley off?
Use his jab!? have you watched Shane Mosley fight? Mosley has never had a decent jab he just paws with it, leaving himself open to all kinds of counters, Mayweather was hitting him at will with every straight right hand over the top, can you imagine getting hit like that by PAC? Shane will get pummeled to hell and sadly, the old man will most likely retire after this beating.
I've stated in previous threads that Mosley has a good chance considering how Margarito, who is slower and less skill then Mosley, was able to connect on Pac with little effort. Pac can't afford this against Mosley because he will get KO. The only reason why I see Pac winning this is because he can out last Mosley considering the work rate and age factor.
I wouldn't put anything past him at this point. If he could get a few extra PPV buys/dollars in his pocket by joining a boxing forum and persuading people to buy the bout, he would no doubt do it. I'm watching you aum. :admin
The Mosley that beat Margarito would still get beat my Pacquiao. He was old then and now hes even older.
Mosley is not willing to fight the type of fight he needs to fight to beat Manny at this age. He needs to smother Manny and bully the **** out of him and frustrate him but Shane is too nice of a guy to do that. Not saying he needs to fight dirty I am just saying he needs to get old school on Manny. Throw a shot and shove Manny afterwards or tie him up and beat those hips. Anyways, Roach and Arum said Mosley was shot to **** after Mayweather and Mora got on his ass and now they are fighting a shot to **** fighter.
It's a money fight for Manny, Shane brings the most. Honestly, I think Shane will give Manny a better fight than either Marquez, Berto, or Bradely would. So while it's disappointing to see a shop worn Mosely step up against a surging Pacquiao, there honestly are no better fights to be made for Manny -(I don't consider Martinez a possible opponent, too big).
