nazim richardson will study pac and find a whole in his defence like marquez and a prime morrales did. mosley is just as fast as pac, with just as much power and an excellent chin. if mosley vs cotto wasn't at the garden then mosley could have got the decision. mosley was the big man after the fight and didn't want to complain so accepted the decision but the least he should have got a rematch, instead cotto went on to fight alfonso gomes.
Just as fast? Then he should have KOed Cotto to or at least put him down. Mosley beating Vargas and Margo just doesn't prove to me he's at a level that can beat Pac. Margo is a punching bag with a questionable record, his late stoppage of Cotto and his Ko of Clintron.
Thats actually the fight i wanna see as i think its a 50-50 fight that is sure to be a barn burner. The PAc-PBF fight or PBF-Mosley fight wouldnt be as good since PBF would more than likely beat PAc pretty convincingly and the PBF-Mosley fight would mean PBF would run all night. I think Mosley has the speed and power to catch Pac and we all know Mosley has the power to KO PAc. Also PAc has the power to keep MOsley honest but i dont think he is gonna be Koing him. This fight would be such a war. Please make this instead of Pac-PBF!!!! Also i hope it wouldnt be made at a catch weight.
I actually don't think it's a very fair comparison. The Mosley that fought Cotto 2 years ago wasn't nearly as hungry (funny enough) as the one that fought Margarito. I think Mosley's got a little chip on his shoulder right now, and that means he's more focused than he has been in years. Tough fight to call... it would be amazing, no doubt.
Mosley is the welter champ and I can't see him scared of anyone. This is a more dangerous fight for Pac than Floyd. His speed, power and combination punching really make it tough, we know Shane has never been ko'd even after some huge shots he took in the first Forrest fight. He is lucky Pac didn't agree to that fight at 140.
The Berto fight will be real interesting. It will be the first live opponent he has faced since Cotto. His last two were Margo and Mayorga. That doesn't tell us a lot about Mosley. Based on those fights I have him losing to Pac. The Berto fight should tell us a lot.
mosley was on the verge on knocking out cotto if the ref never got invloved, it was a close fight, could have gone either way, cotto got the decision because he was fighting in new york. beating a prime delahoya twice puts mosley on the same level as pac. if margarito was a punching bag what was the shot morrales, shot hatton, shot delahoya and D-level fighter david diaz then.
Mosley indeed is peeing his pants right now ... form excitement after he counts the $$$ from the possible fight +3 belts and new linear/ring titles on stack.
Pacquiao vs. Mosley at 143lbs would be pointless. It would be Pacquiao vs. Oscar at 147lbs all over again. A weight drained fighter getting pummelled. Pacquiao vs. Mosley at 147lbs, however... now there is a fight.
