    There would be riots in Manilla if Mosley put Pac out in front of all his fans. Just imagine filipinos everywhere going balls crazy!!

    Mosley is more of a threat to beat Pacquiao than Cotto, therefore to force a fight against Pacman with Pac's team...he needs to limit other possible options by being the biggest prize to gain with a win !

    fact is pac can make more money with cotto, plus mosley is a bigger threat to pac then cotto is. imo mosley knock pac-man out.

    I'll try to make it as clear as possible once and for all.....
    I don't give a **** if Pacquiao meets either Mosley, Cotto, Mayweather or Wladimir Klitschko for that matter.....

    I'm always for the best to fight the best but my post was just an explanation for why I believe Team Pacquiao, unfortunately are not too fond of facing Mosley ! That's why I'm saying Mosley might have to force their hand a little more !!! Understand ?

    Anyhow...a fight with Cotto is still a great fight !! I only see 3 possible guys to face Pacman afterwards anyways : Mayweather-Mosley or Marquez.

    A fight with Mosley doesn't make sense. He's too big I don't care how good a fighter is, you just can't keep moving up in weight and beat everyone. I'm not saying Manny doesn't have a prayer against Shane. I don't like the Cotto fight either, and it's not because of Manny losing, I wouldn't even root for anyone in that fight cause I like both fighters (same with Shane). I think Floyd vs Manny is the best fight, they are closer in size and it's more fair and Floyd gets more credit for me than Shane cause of size. People here think Manny won't prove himself unless he goes to MW and dominates. Enough is enough. Shane's too big.

    I know Shane wants a good payday and that's why he's not fighting PW for example. He's 37... to all the people claiming how "he's scared", lets see Williams have a good career and when he's old and seemingly on his way out, win a good fight like Shane dominated Margo and then don't go out there looking for big money fights before he has to retire. Shane's proven he takes on dangerous fights.

    Since when winning a closed unanimous decision is controversial,shitt even Mosley admitted he lost against cotto haven't you seen the post fight interviews?

    Maragarito cotto (controversial loaded gloves)
    margarito mosley(ko)
    MOSLEY COTTO (CLEARLY CLOSED UD FOR COTTO)

    That's exactly why Team Pacquiao hesitate to seriously consider Mosley for now....the guy is really a strong ****er for his size also...he benches like 300 + lbs.

    Sure buddy.

    And at 135 they weren't to fond in facing the top fighters either. The 140 division sucked balls, so theyw ent for it, they made cherry picked Oscar, now they're avoiding the #1 at WW and going for the safer fight again. Damn, way to take the easier route.

    I fight with Cotto is not as good as a fight with Mosley. Period.
