Trainer Freddie Roach spoke with the Golzka paper about Shane Mosley's selection as the next opponent for WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao. The fight happens on May 7 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Roach says Mosley will be a very dangerous opponent in the early rounds.


"It's not an easy fight. He's very dangerous in the early rounds. You saw what happened to Mayweather. Nobody looks good against Sergio Mora so you can't really blame for that [performance]. We can't look past him. Mosley is a tough guy. He has a good chin and he has good hand speed," Roach said.
