    Remember this...A thread I created back in December.

    So what do we have coming up on May 7....An Orthodox fighter vs a Southpaw. And it's two fighters that both come forward, will not BACK-UP, and Although neither leads with their heads like Bradley, Pacquiao is so damn awkward that a clash of heads is definitely possible. But in the Braldey vs Alexander fight....the clash of heads ended a pretty ACTION-LESS NIGHT with both fighters looking for their opening. I am afraid that in this up-coming fight....a clash of heads (bad cut) may ruin an EXCITING FIGHT. I hate to rain on everyone's parade....But STYLES MAKES FIGHTS, AND SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA PREPARE YOURSELF FOR EVERYTHING. I hope it doesn't happen, especially since Arum has a SHITTY undercard schedule.

    Good point dude but personally I think Manny will use angles and work from the outside and stop Mosley late. He'll keep Shane turning who will run him into **** all night long.

    Hey numb nuts, Pac has always been southpaw and all of his other big opponents were orthodox. How many times was there a major cut? Once like 6 years ago with Morales, thats it.

    Bradley headbutts every opponent and there are cuts in every fight of his.

    There are headbutts in a lot of Pac's fights. Like darryl said, with two offensive fighters in opposite stances it's almost guaranteed to happen. Assuming they aren't headbutting each other on purpose, it's really a matter of luck whether somebody gets cut from it or not.

    Valid. Shane hasn't really been cut too badly, has he? I know Manny has some scar tissue. So if anything, a stoppage might come from a cut on Manny and he'll win on cards.

    Shane has only had one cut against Forrest in their first fight from a clash of heads.

    iirc, pac was just keeping it easy and playing with solis until there was a clash of heads that put pac in a panic mode and signal the beginning of the end of the fight by pac taking it seriously.

    Manny will fight Shane on the outside. Manny will not let shane do what he usually does: clinching. That's why Bayless gets into the picture: to prevent Shane from doing his usual punch-then-clinch move.
