    Will Pac be the first to do it?

    And honestly, is Mosley any more shot than he was when he fought Mayweather?

    In his fight with the Latin Snake, I thought he was going to be blown out due to his last performance against Mayweather where he proved without athleticism, he doesn't have much boxing ability.

    Instead, Mosley won about 4 rounds with Mora in my opinion, but still made improvements from when he fought Mayweather.

    Perhaps, the pressure of being in with Mayweather got to him, but that type of jittery movements he did against Mayweather is something he's been doing his entire career, except when he fought Mora this last time.

    I think Nazim is making an impact in his career and that Mosley is making improvements in his boxing ability.

    Only one year removed, I think this version of Mosley will be harder to beat than the one that fought Mayweather.

    Now, I'm not taking any credit away from Mayweather becuase that was a great win, and he would win now obviously too, but things need to be kept in perspective.

    I know it's easy for ESPN and other non-boxing sites to talk trash about Mosley due to his declining athleticism, but I think Bernard proved again that technical skills carry the day and age is sometimes just a number.

    And considering Mosley has Bernard's trainer, I think he'll continue to make improvements.

    Yes, I would rather see Manny fight Floyd, but Floyd doesn't want the fight. It's clear as day.

    So to revert back to my first question....

    Will Manny be the first to knock out Mosley?

    Now, when I say knock out, I don't mean put to sleep.

    I mean, stop him or entice his corner to throw in the towel.

    Keep in mind Nazim has more sense than Margarito's trainer, and even talked about throwing in the towel when Mosley fought Mayweather.

    Especially one that's still in the process of learning how to box.

    Nope, same fighter. He hasn't taken enough damage since to have his condition be changed from the Mayweather fight.

    either nazeem throws in the towell or the ref will stop it, mosley has a chance(he has) a punchers chance, first 2/3 rounds if he doesnt get pacquiao out of the ring by then the beating will begin. I predict pac tko 7

    I agree, but I think he's made some technical improvements that I noticed however slight, in his fight against Mora.

    So it might be safe to say that he's made more improvements since then.

    He's done bro. I wouldn't call him totally shot, but he's heading in that direction. He'll look just as bad as he did against Floyd / Mora, or worse.

    As for the KO, I think Pac will get a late stoppage.

    No, I dont think he'll get KO'ed...Accumulation of punches and having the ref. stop it or Nazim throwing in the towel would be the better answer...I dont think Manny can KO Mosley...Even at this stage of his career!

    That's not the question you want to ask when you're talking about a fight with the P4P #1.

    Mosley is shot his skills that he did have are eroding.

    How the **** can you say he is improving this aint a young prospect we are talking about,this is a 40 yr old man who been boxing since he was six ****ing years old you expecting him to develop defense now? dont bring Hopkins into it either bernard can train himself he needs nazim for the extra drive and to monitoer him, there arent many things naz can tell hop that he dont already know.

    And pac will probably end up knocking mosley out he is washed up now, and fredie has seen his last two fights that is why it is being made.

    Mosley will probably get stopped. I think he and his team are going into this fight knowing he has no chance. You don't suddenly learn to box at 40. B-Hop has been honing his skills since the beginning. Even Brother Nazim can't turn Mosley into a technician at this late stage. Then you take into account the opponent...Pac Man will be hitting him constantly and the towel will be throw in.

    Mosley might move his head once per round now as opposed to 0.
