    for the Mosley/Pac ?i guess the want Mosley to leave the power in the gym. don't get me wrong i think pac beats him no matter what but why fight for the 154 lbs title at 148 lbs, if anything make it 150 the same as margarito

    Mosley is worse at the higher weight, why would you want that?

    To give Pacquiao a precived advantage just like with De La Hoya, Cotto and Margarito.
    This time it could backfire on him. I hope it dose he would deserve it to backfire on him.

    It's a shitty belt anyway. Pac might as well lose it and keep the welter.

    Fighting Mosley at 147-148 will give Pac an advantage whe n Mosley has clearly always been better at this weight? Explain that to me.
