Who would come out on top, Mosley or Pac?

I think style-wise Pac has a better chance, and when did Mosley become past his prime, he's not as good as he once was but he's still the man to beat at ww. i guess he was past it when he started to negotiate with Mayweather.:nonono: Mosley is almost 38, his best years are passed him and I think it's pretty obvious. I am not making excuses for Shane should he lose, I have said this before Pacquiao was even p4p 1. For the record I think Mayweather beats him at any age regardless. As you said though, he is still the man to beat, and he's still a very good at this age.

I think Pacquiao has the better chance of beating Mayweather. Mosley is too one-dimensional and he is past it now. I agree, mosley is still a good fighter but I cant see him beating either of mayweather or pacquiao. I think that Pacquiao would win UD against Mosley. And Mayweather beats pac and mosley by UD

No I made this thread when people were talking about Mosley beating Mayweather and other people talking about Pac can beat Mayweather. I want to know who the masses believe can beat Mayweather.

I think Pacquiao would beat Mosley and would have a much better shot at beating Floyd

Yes.Mosley may have a chnae of beating pacquiao with his power. But Pacquiao has been destroing everyone hes faced and his power seems to get better with each fight he has. The only guy I can see beating pacquiao is Mayweather. I don't think it would be Mosley's power but his boxing ability, he can stick and move as well as fight moving backwards, he proved this against Margarito and I think on his best night he could beat Pac. Also I don't see Pac knocking Mosley out, the man's chin is granite.

What exactly is this thread asking? I assumed TS meant who will have the better performance, Pac or Mosley, against Mayweather and Clottey. I pick Pac against Clottey.

I'm not so sure Mosley would lose to Pac, besides that i agree. Yes.Mosley may have a chnae of beating pacquiao with his power. But Pacquiao has been destroing everyone hes faced and his power seems to get better with each fight he has. The only guy I can see beating pacquiao is Mayweather.

Simple really. Pacquiao desicions mosley. Mayweather beats both by UD I'm not so sure Mosley would lose to Pac, besides that i agree.

They both have little to no chance. Floyd schools both. They not anywhere near his league as fighters.

Bump! I was going to make a thread about this... when i remembered i already had. Who do you feel has a better shot a why? discuss.

again i ask...he had trouble dealing with JMM's mediocre defense and counter punches. How will he get through Mayweathers defense?:dead1: Marquez would engage then counter, Mayweather wouldn't engage unless he has no choice. Marquez isn't mediocre, if you think that you haven't been watching but his last fight.

How on earth does he KO Mayweather, when he didnt KO "boxers" like Collazo or Cotto @ WW? :slap: WHEN IS THE LAST TIME SHANE MOSLEY BEAT A BOXER? My point exactly, great post.

If Shane Mosley were younger and Manny Pacquiao was taller I have no doubt they would win. But you don't know what to expect from a 38 year old fighter that might have an off night or he might look rejuvenated. While Mayweathers defense and height and reach advantages might be not too easy for Manny to deal with, but Manny has so much stamina and does a lot of combos where he might get one of those combinations through Mayweathers defense.

I agree that Pacquiao's style would be dangerous, but I also think his style would also make Mayweather picking him apart and pot-shotting him alot harder as well I'm one of the few that think today, Pacquiao has a better chance. If Mosley still had his feet I'd give him the better chance but I see PBF backing away too much and leaning on the ropes blocking/dodging all of Mosley's power shots. I think Pac has the greater chance due to his stance, leg speed and unorthodox angles he uses. But the biggest key is his big flurries and feints. PBF is great at avoiding damage from those single shots or simple combos but he (being human) can't anticipate where the 4th-8th punches will land. Pac will have to throw alot but I think he will connect, and connect more often than a pot-shotting PBF especially if he is successful at feinting. Pac may swarm PBF to either break through his defense or force PBF to counter, in which PBF lets his defense down. I also feel that Roach sees something in Floyd that Pac may exploit. I don't know what it is but when he talks about fighting Floyd he doesn't seem intimidated in the least. Pac had trouble with JMM because JMM is willing to trade and brawl a bit while countering, I doubt an overly cautious pot-shotting floyd will hurt or out point a smart pac that mixes things up while keeping a high work rate.

Neither will beat him

Not sure on this one. Shane looked great against Marg, but not too good against Mayorga until late on. He should not have had a problem putting Mayorga away earlier and he seems a little inconsistent now, but I guess he'd really be up for a fight with Floyd and would train like a demon, so who knows. I'd only give him a semi-decent chance. Mayorga was like 170 something on fight night......the guy was throwing wild bombs like crazy so Shane had to be careful not to get caught up in that wreckless situation that cost Vernon his "0"......:boxing:

pacquiao would get outclassed and slowly picked apart through the progression of the fight. mosley is too old and he wouldn't be able to beat mayweather at this stage in his career. he is just past his prime and i would rather have a 32 year old mosley going up against floyd than a 38 yr old version of him. so neither. however, i believe pacquiaos style could be dangerous and would pose a bit of a threat to mayweather. I agree that Pacquiao's style would be dangerous, but I also think his style would also make Mayweather picking him apart and pot-shotting him alot harder as well
