Unless Mosley catches Manny cold in the early stages then you'd have to consider this is gonna be a very long night for him. If Manny can bring the workrate he normally does and flurry Shane consistantly it is very possible this gets waved off by the Ref or Richardson.
the only way I see a stoppage win for Pac is from accumulation leading to the corner or the ref stopping it. And I doubt even that would happen.
After 4th round, they sneak Clottey in to replace Mosley. Clottey will have to cover his face again until the end of the fight and people won't notice it... Well on my serious opinion, I'm still kind of nervous that there is a chance where Mosley would knocked Pac down. Hopefully Pac can recover and eventually realize that going toe to toe against Shane on the early rounds is not a good a idea at all. Pac by 7th round stoppaged(either referee or his corner will stop the fight). I just think Mosley is still dangerous in the early rounds so Pac has to be careful. Roach knows this and hopefully it all goes well.
I dont think Pac will hurt Mosley with one punch, I dont think he will floor him, and I dont think he will knock him out. If Pac does, it will impress the hell out of me despite Mosleys age. I can see Pac wearing Mosley down in the later rounds until Mosley is recieving so many punches that the ref waves the fight off out of mercy. That would surprise me and is plausable IMO. just imo
Yea, I agree. I figure the first few rounds will look entertaining, but will quickly start to show Pacquaio wearing Shane down. If Pacquiao does floor Shane with one power shot, I too will be impressed, but like you I deff see accumulation doing most of the damage. I didn't really specify if I thought, the ref, or corner would stop it, but I do agree it will be one or the other.
Pac is stopping Mosley, no doubt. Mosley's reflexes are shot. he won't be able to stop the punches from hitting him in the head.
