    Mosley called out the "Pinoy Fighting Pride" after his devastating win over Margarito? But will fight him, coming off a shutout loss against Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    Roach thought he was "To good" at the time. So they waited.

    Even fighting Floyd is about "Timing."

    I don't think Pac cares but he will listen to Roach.

    Mosley didn't want to fight at 143. He was "Willing to".........willing to chop off a leg and arm to make it at a catchweight (on the demand of Roach) but wasn't willing to cut off two arms and two legs to get any lower than that so the fight didn't come off. That's still on Team Pac. Why didn't they just fight Mosley at 147?

    Mosley wanted a welterweight fight. Pacquiao wanted a fight at a 140lb catchweight, this was quoted by Freddy Roach. Which is why the fight didn't go through.

    I Agree but you don't jump to the biggest challenge when your a small man entering a new division

    135-147 (ending with his fights with ODLH), and we'll use those versions of ODLH in this conversation as well...give Pac hell.
