    Honestly, I think Mosley is a better finisher than Pacquiao. Let's not forget, Pacquiao had Ricky Hatton down with 60 seconds left in the first round in their fight and couldn't finish him. He couldn't finish Cotto in the 4th although there wasn't much time left. Mosley did a terrible job after hurting Floyd in that fight, though. It's tough for me to say. I think Mosley probably hits a little bit harder than Manny, but I think Manny can stun Floyd just as bad or worse with a single punch because of his style and accuracy. I think Pac would have a good chance to flurry and knock Mayweather down after he stuns him but Floyd would likely get up and finish the round.

    Yet his worst trouble came from orthos, Castillo, Oscar, mosley. Floyd does not have trouble with southpaws no more than any other boxers. It's just something that PAC fans want to be the case

    What else is he gonna say? "If I hit Mayweather like that I might be able to finish the job, maybe"

    oscar got drilled by so many it started to take a toll....oscar even said he was hoping manny would hit him with that "one" shot and send him out so he wouldnt have to stand there and take all the punches and quit

    Ask the 2000 version of Oscar or the shot one that PAC fought. Dude are you serious?

    So he knocked Cotto down and then what happened? Didn't stop him until like 8 rounds after that. What a great finisher. I am really convinced with that knock down that he will finish Mayweather if he ever stuns him.

    Is it just me, or did you class Mayweather's fall as going down? Didnt his glove touch the ground?

    I agree.

    The question is what would a younger Mosely have done?

    Pac is a great finisher. He's just punching above his weight. Ideal would be 135 or 140 tops.

    Mosely has years of PED's in his system.


    Manny Usually punches with gloves that are smaller in OZ and give you more bang in the punches

    Yet wasnt able to put Margarito down, just crack him. So there is no doubt that Mosely is stronger

    Manny, hasn't KO'd anyone at 147 De La Toya quit in the 8th because he couldn't mount an attack, he was never dropped or Wobbled, Pac went the full 12 with Clottey who he never even hurt or even land a flush shot,

    It took him 12 rounds before the ref decided to stop the fight with Cotto who Pac hit with damn near every punch he threw, but Pac couldn't ko Cotto & that was at a catch-weight, Pac also went the distance against Margo who he hit at will with power shot after power shot at an insane rate and he couldn't finish Tony....
    Now he wants us to believe he would knockout a man who has arguably the best defence in history, never been Ko'd & in 42 fights only had his glove touch the canvas, man please...

    If if was a fifth we'd all be drunk, i'd be more inclined to believe that if Mosley hits Pac like that he would Ko Manny, Pac just doesn't have one punch Ko power at this weight he's a hard puncher but has overrated power, I hope Shane Ko's this ******...

    you forgot the bit where the timeclock expired as pac was going in for the kill. Pac's a great finisher and he knows when his opponent is seriously hurt.

    No one better in the game at finishing than Manny Pacquiao.

    Pacquaio doesn't have Mosely's power, and besides, it is a moot point either way, because Mosely is about to beat Pacquiao's arse this Saturday.
