Roach wants Mosley for Pacquiao at 142 pounds
Freddie Roach wants Shane Mosley for Manny Pacquiao but only if the WBA welterweight champion agrees to drop down to 142 pounds.According to Rosenthal’s Ringtv.com blog, Roach reportedly asked Mosley, “Can you make 142 (pounds)?” to which “Sugar” replied, “No, I can’t get below 147.” “Then there’ll be no fight,” Roach declared. Mosley countered, “But you fought Oscar (de la Hoya) at 147?”
Roach replied, “You’re not Oscar.”(AKA you are too dangerous at your healthy weight)

Mosley Dared Pacquiao to Fight Him at 142 pounds
Shane Mosley is now agreeable to challenge Manny Pacquiao at 142 pounds. Earlier Freddie Roach, Pacquaio's trainer, dared Mosley to face the pound-for-pound king at 142 but he said he cannot fight at the weight lower than 145. Mosley, who is pushing 38, surprised boxing fans yesterday with his announcement of his decision to accept Pacquiao’s challenge to go down to 142 for a chance to fight him later this year. Mosley is holding on to a 147 pound title.

Roach: Mosley not on Pacquiao radar
July 17, 2009
SHANE MOSLEY: "I'M GOING TO 140; I WANT TO FIGHT PACQUIAO FOR HIS BELT"
"I'm going down to 140 and I want to fight Pacquiao for his belt because that's a belt I had never won. I have never won the jr. welterweight belt before. Also, at the same time, I can pick up the pound-for-pound belt. I believe I can make the weight so let's do it! There should be no 143, 141, 142 or all this other stuff. I'm going to 140 and fighting at his weight...I'm ready to make the sacrifice once again to get down to 140 or whatever it is. I used to make a big sacrifice to get to lightweight. I know how to make the weight. I know how to get down there and get to the weight and be strong so I can do it one more time to fight Pacquiao,"
.......................and who do they fight next?
Freddie Roach believes Cotto is damaged goods
Im a Mosley ball washer yeah I said big whup you wanna fight about it?
The real reason that Pac did not fight Shane is because he thought he would get more money fighting Cotto and for less of a risk
He was right on both things
he had the biggest PPV that year and he easily whooped on Cotto.
I give him props for taking on a prime Cotto. Cotto looked in great shape and was not drained pac was just way too fast for him.
So I dont think he ducked Mosley he just made a smarter business decision.
If he would have fought Shane he would have got his ass knocked out in less than 5 and he wouldnt be in the position he is in now.
See what real boxing fans say?
TS made a terrible thread.:owned2:
yall must have forgot that Pacquiao ducked Mosley
you alone forgot that Cotto beat Mosley??? You should fall in line... wait for your turn. Pac fights Yuri, then Mosley then he retires, then PBF realizes he has no more money.
LOL why do i still hear pac fans saying Mayweather ducked Mosley?

now please stop pac fans :biggthump
k? thanks, bye.
I wanted to see this fight so bad......still possible tho'.....maybe in September this year!!
What a pussy, he went and fought the guy that BEAT shane mosley instead. pfffftt
This thread hurts my brain. Please Boxingscene, be better than this! It's not very difficult..
great, this thread has been ducked by the pac fans because apparently, pacquiao fought the guy that beat mosley, in a sense, pac already beat mosley. :sad:
and these are the same people who go all over the board and write "triangle theories dont mean shit" when some one uses it against their god all mighty. :fing02:
did floyd fought mosley or cotto?? lol now who's duckin???
Pac can fight Yuri Foreman next while Floyd fights Shane Mosley next and the Pac-RETARDS will still find away to build Yuri up while writing Mosley off.
They are blinded by the sweat from Pac's jock. Forgive them.
are u sure floyd will fight mosley next??? lol
LOL why do i still hear pac fans saying Mayweather ducked Mosley?

Can't we stop with the whole ducking shit... there is no such thing in boxing as ducking only bad timing of circumstances
I would love to see pacquiao come off 2 year lay off and fight Mosley or Cotto, I would love it.
sure....
Pac to Cotto: fight me at 143
Cotto to Pac: cant do that
Pac to Cotto: then no fight
look guys you can say anything you want, but the fact is that pacquiao ducked mosley.
Pacman ducked Mosley?
"You mean old, 5 loss Mosley?"
I said no blood sucking i didnt say no weight draining =\
Eh i guess what youre trying to say is that if Pacquiao hasnt fought them he ducked them. I think pacquiao will fight mosley if he wins, but not soon, i dont think its the right time table. Maybe in early summer.
What i would really like to see is PBF fight Mosley...but we all know that aint happening.
No he went and fought a guy who was a shadow of his former self!!!
Yeah and if he picked Mosley over Cotto and if Manny wins, they'll say that Manny fought an old dilapidated Mosley. There's nothing Manny can do to please some fans really. The best thing to look at it is, he's willing to fight anyone that his promoter gives to him.
No it cant.. Cause Pac picked a fighter that is Mosley equal if not better in Cotto..
Who did Mayweather pick?
here's my take on it:
can choosing to fight cotto over mosley be considered ducking? imo no
can choosing to fight jmm over mosley be considered ducking? imo yesI would love to see pacquiao come off 2 year lay off and fight Mosley or Cotto, I would love it.
Pacman will fight anyone...with no blood sucking neededsure....
Pac to Cotto: fight me at 143
Cotto to Pac: cant do that
Pac to Cotto: then no fight
look guys you can say anything you want, but the fact is that pacquiao ducked mosley.
floyd fans want's floyd to face mosley,cotto, margarito all tough fights problem is floyd himself want's to face marquez, hatton family and other non risk fights. Hahahaha
Same Damn thing can be said of Manny
He could have fought Juan Diaz but instead took on The lesser known Diaz
he could have fought Cotto or Mosley but instead fought Hoya for the easy money
then he could have fought Bradley or Campbell but took on Hatton and then he could have fought Mosley again but he took on Cotto. Notice how manny has never faced a black fighter?
he has had the chance to but he hasnt
Just an observation
Im not saying what Floyd does is right but one needs to look in the mirror before pointing the finger
Pac can fight Yuri Foreman next while Floyd fights Shane Mosley next and the Pac-RETARDS will still find away to build Yuri up while writing Mosley off.
They are blinded by the sweat from Pac's jock. Forgive them.
No, that would be the Floyd way to do it.
Ofcourse Mosley isnøt on the radar, Cotto was. Because Cotto was nr. 1 WW. Now it's Mayweather. After that, it could be Mosley, but one fella at the time.
This thread is plain and simple stupidity... imo.
floyd fans want's floyd to face mosley,cotto, margarito all tough fights problem is floyd himself want's to face marquez, hatton family and other non risk fights. Hahahaha
