    ......was because many people wanted to see PBF fight someone whom we though would really give him trouble and beat him. Because we all wanna see 'money' lose his '0'

    but what we saw was the reason why PBF has his '0' because he fought a brilliant fight and showed us p4p king qualities

    Mosley should have done better. But we could see that when his confidence went it was over from the 5th-6th round onwards. Brother Nazim couldn't get him to listen.

    We have to also understand there are factors of age, over-training, not following the game-plan, taking his chances in the 2-3rd rounds, ring rust etc etc

    but the simple fact is pbf showed us why he is the p4p king and that he truely is gifted Whereas others are talented.

    I thought early on the officiating was going well but then I couldn't believe how many times pbf's elbows were in mosley's face, the head dragging etc bayliss kinda sucked overall.

    I see pacman vs money a very very tough fight to call, yes it is hard to hit pbf clean but manny has the stamina power and speed tohurt with volume punching from various angles. But manny could get countered all night.

    Pbf got stunned and grabbed mosley because he knew if he let go it could have been over - true sign of a guy with high ring/boxing IQ.......yeah he held like a '*****'......but he was a smart ***** :)

    You just can't underestimate mayweather at all

    manny dosent have the 1 punch stunner power mosley has. Pac has to land a **** load of punches. Yes he did so on hatton but hatton was broken in already. he will be in the ring with a fighter thats been hurt 3 times in his career not battered the entire.
    Pac needs mosley power to stop floyd he wont land them punches like he did on morales and oscar all night. floyd is too good.
    what will he eat to get through floyds reach? shane started running when floyd start hitting him. my guess is floyd aint as feather fisted as some think. painful night for pac arum and roach
