Mosley Gives Mayweather Slight Edge Over Pacquiao

By Ryan Burton

Former three division champion and future hall of famer "Sugar" Shane Mosley recently gave Boxingscene.com his expert opinion on how a potential fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao would play out. Mosley faced both fighters in the ring, losing twelve round decisions in both outings.

While Mosley leans towards Mayweather, he doesn't rule out Pacquiao leaving the ring with his hand raised.

"I give the slight edge to Money Mayweather because of his ability to move and get out of the way and make it hard for Manny Pacquiao to find him. Money Mayweather has a little bit of punching power as well. It's not like he doesn't hit hard. He's not the hardest hitter but he's also not the softest. I think it will be a great fight. I see Mayweather winning but Pacquiao definitely has a chance," Mosley told BoxingScene.com.
