    Very true.

    135 Mosley was a true modern ATG.

    H2h nightmare for anyone in history.

    Pac is technically superior to Mosley. Pac waits for Mosley to tire and then he goes in for the pain.

    The older version of Pac was technically superior I agree. But this thread is about the 135 pound version of him. That version was still limited flawed and reckless. He was still basically a one handed fighter back then. At 135 he would get broken down and stopped by Mosley.

    BS he peppered Barrera with right crosses all the way back in 2003. By 2008 against Marquez he was a dual wielding machine.

    In the Diaz fight at 135 he was skilled.

    Ask Emmanuel Steward. He's the one who kept talking about it live during the fight.

    Pac is faster, more explosive, much better footwork and head movement, mosley probably does hit a little harder. And Mosley smarter? :lol: Pac isn't the brightest but Mosley isn't any smarter.

    Mosley is a proven PED cheat anyway.

    That's a very good fight, I don't think some posters here watched a 135 lb version of Shane.

    Mosley took on all comers at LW- albeit the talent pool at the time he was campagining in the division wasn't THAT great- but he accrued some ridiculous record at 135 lbs- something like 38-0 with 35 KO's? I'm just going off the top of my head but he had a ridiculous career at LW and is widely considered one of probably the 10 greatest LW's in the history of the sport.

    Pacman didn't really campaign for very long at 135 lbs. Once again, just going off the top of my head but I'm pretty sure he only fought there once and it was against the weakest alphabet champion in David Diaz. So Pacman doesn't really have a longstanding resume at the division so I'm assuming it would be the Diaz version of him versus a prime pre-2000 Mosley.

    I'd favor Shane something like 65-35, maybe 70-30.

    You're correct Pacquiao did not beat anybody of note at 135. But he has great wins at 126, 130 and 145.

    Mosley did not beat anybody relevant at 135. But he did beat DLH at 147 twice. Albeit in a close and indecisive manner.

    Shane would have starched Pac at 135.
