    just keep it simple explain why pac is the #1 welter right now based on his fights at welter
     

  2. Because his recent performances at WW have been more impressive than anyone else's.

    ok I got you.....I did see that....I was talking about two different titles at the same time my fault...lb 4 lb and welter ....sorry for the confusion

    either way he shouldn't be ranked number 1 at welter

    Clottey was the only legitimate welter he faced how is that better than any one else.....DLH ( weight drained 154lber) Cotto he fought at 145...


    Last I checked Mosley beat the man who beat both clottey and cotto and mosley beat DLH twice.....

    Im not getting your logic
     
  5. And bottled water shouldn't cost more than gasoline, but it does.

    The Ring rankings are the closest thing boxing has to "official". While you can say that you feel like Mosley is the best Welterweight, it's incorrect to say he's the #1 ranked Welterweight, because he isn't. That's all I'm saying.
     

  6. 145 is Welterweight. Ask the guy in your avatar.


    And Mosley lost to Cotto and never fought Clottey. He didn't fight the Margarito they fought, either.

    Mosley is 39, very past it, and has a year long layoff. No excuses, just the truth. Margarito is a punching.

    It's funny seeing some of these posters talk about how it's just excuses and people not giving credit to Floyd. They are the same ones insisting on Pac and other fighters fighting shot fighters and use every excuse in the book.

    I dont expect you to trust me, but its the truth thats all I have to say regarding it, Manny is doing a promotion for my place of work so of course while he does come around he is asked and this is what we are told.

    thing is we have no idea if Mosley is a great fighter - he is at an age where any fight could be the fight where he ages. I hope he puts on a good performance and we see a good SSM. But I worry Floyd is gonna make a joke out of him,

    Pacs win over DLH should not be rated as high as some here rate it, the win was decent but there are real factors in that win some factors that nuthuggers refuse to own up to.

    Not really, Pac fans just hate seeing ******s act like Pac was cherry picking DLH when almost everyone thought that was a circus fight and Pac was gonna get killed. As far as credit, sure Pac fought a past it, drained Hoya, true. Just like Mosley is close to being shot.

    Wow you're dumb. De La Hoya looked like **** when he fought Forbes. Even Pacquiaos trainer said that De La Hoya was done and that they drained him on purpose.


    Mayweather is fighting a Mosley thats coming off KO's of Mayorga and Margarito, and fighting at his best weight class.

    How is that even on the same ****ing planet dope? And how is Mosley close to being shot?

    I hope your wrong, but you probably are right.
    I don't even care if Mosley loses at this point, but I want to see him put up a damn good, SMART fight! I'm just afraid a very old Mosley will show up.
    I'll give some credit even if MAyweather beats this version of Mosley, but I'd give mad props if he takes on a good, competitive version...Even with the age.

    Mosley is close to being shot. Prime Mosley knocks Cotto the hell out. For example, I wouldn't even consider Pac beating a prime Mosley, only now do I consider the possibility. All I have to do is watch Mosley vs DLH and some of those fights around that time, then I watch Mosley vs Cotto and Mayorga and I can see he's past it and close to being shot.
