    Is this going to be one of those things where if you agree with everything i said, then you disagree with a point that I suddenly lack total credibility, and I have no idea what I'm talking about fullstop? Feel free to disagree with that point, but if you agree with everything else, then the overall thesis stands.

    BTW - I'm not saying that *I* think the Mosley that might fight Pacquiao is better than the Mosley that fought Mayweather. I think both Mosleys are equally shot. My point is that the only difference between the two Mosleys is that Mosley has been more active post-Mayweather than pre-Mayweather. And that's not a debatable point. What *is* debatable is whether that increased activity makes him better, and my statement was that one could make that argument.

    Roach and Pacquiao have nothing to be embarrassed about because no decisions have been made yet. I want Pac-Marquez III as much as anyone, but there's no need to get melodramatic before anything has actually even happened.

    *****s probably find it hard to sleep at night knowing that Floyd isn't even being talked about as a potential opponent of Pac anymore.

    They should be held accountable too. Roach analyzes the opponents for Manny, from a competitive and logistical perspective. Arum does the wheeling and dealing. Arum presents the proposals to Manny, for Manny to approve. Who Manny fights is not Arum's decision alone. Manny is not some prospect like "Canelo" who needs to be steered along or groomed. He is an elite fighter who picks and chooses whom he wants to fight, while considering the advice of his promoter, trainer, and advisors. So, he is partially accountable for the decisions that come out of his camp...this being one of them.
