Not only that he would actually fight them in theier prime...
Neither Floyd nor Pac have fought guys in their prime.
I'd still like to see Mosley vs Pac, but I doubt it'll happen.
Shane is a warrior, and that my friend, is his undoing against Pac. He would get busted up and beat up all night and unlike Mayweather, Pac will go for the knockout.
he'd probably beat shane now. younger shane would marg him. both guys mostly come straight forward. shane's got a gun and pac's got a lot of knives. bad news for the little man
who would you favor to beat pac out of all those boxers?
none really. shane is on his way to retirement & would not really stand a chance against pac at this stage. not after how he looked vs floyd.
berto is overrated & would get smashed. collazo, quintana?
pssst. please.
Margarito loses easily too. He needs to fght Mayweathe,
At that time, manny was still testing the welterweight division, it's his first time to be fighting a legit WW, and it was a choice between Cotto and Mosley. Although Arum was pushing for Cotto already, Mosley's name came up as a last minute replacement just in case Cotto backed out, and Mosley was trying to pull a fast one on Cotto by trying to lure Team Pacquiao to sign with him and giving Manny more than enough advantages. And it was a good decision when they finally signed with cotto at 145lbs., do you really think that fighting an old Mosley at 140lbs. will benefit Manny in terms of his legacy and legitimacy at WW???
Some people only see what they want to see. Mosley is old and the fight at 140? Manny will get no credit in this either he win or lose. If he wins flomos will just say Mosley was old and dehydrated. If he loses to Mosley flomos will say he is fraud and exposed. So why not fight the younger and prime Cotto who beat Mosley?
Shane Mosley was willing to go down to 140, Pac didn't want to fight him and you say Pac murks him? Mosley unlike other guys that Manny fought has some handspeed.

Hmm..what about at 145?..
But my boy Timothy Bradley gives Pacquiao the WORKS!..
I HOPE to see this fight..but Pacquiao had turned pretty queer lately..

don't forget, the other choice at that time was cotto, a bigger draw, and known to be one of the guys who beat shane too, that's why they chose him instead and plus he's from top rank that's why. if pac chose to fight mosley at 140, he would've looked a bitch that is bitcher than mayweather's bitch moves. if he choses to faced mosley, people would've said, he ducked cotto.
Mosley has a good chance of hitting Pac. Styles make fights and Shane is the type of fighter when he gets hit he immediately wants to hit you back. If Pac can take those shots and not get overpowered he probably gets a late TKO/decision win.
i dont know if pac runs over mosley.....he destroys berto and collazo yes, but to say he steamrolls mosley too, thats crazy talk. pac may win but not steamroll.
That KO looked scary but he got right up. Your're right. I heard that that they make him dizzy in camp then put him in the ring to learn how to fight while hurt or stunned.Which might explain the quick reactions.
He does push ups with his chin, in order to strengthen his neck. There's a video of him doing it in the Training and Nutrition forum.
I don't think he is chinny. Holt has true power, and Holt landed a hell of a shot. IMO if he was chinny he wouldn't of gotten up from that punch. But, not only did he get hit by that punch but when he got up he still was composed enough to get back down and take a knee to make sure every thing was alright. That his legs were underneath him. Bradley IQ is underrated.

I think Pac would KO Mosley within 8. Whoever opens up against Pac is getting KO'd.
this^^^ I was waiting for clottey to open up and get clipped with one of those weird punches but clottey never did. Any fighter that has the habit of showing off their machismo and brawls with pac gets KTFO. No one can slug with him not even mosley.
I think Bradley would do better than Alexander at this point.
Bradley has improved a lot, IMO. He's started to tighten his defense and is no longer a one dimensional pressure fighter with a high output. He's developed his boxing ability and tightened his technique. It just may be a case of him being further along in his career than Alexander.
I think the problem with Alexander is that he seems to be a bit tight in the ring, and has a habit of pulling out with his head in the air, that's how Urango was catching him, and Witter was able to land here and there on him. Also, maybe it was just me, but at times when Urango was able to close the gap, Alexander looked rushed and uncomfortable.
That's just my two cents on it all. Like I said, it just may be a case of Bradley being further a long in his career. I like Alexander, have high hopes for him.
Yeah I think he make Pac uncomfortable at times but almost every advantage is in Pacs favor. Bradley also comes off as being kind of chinny.

The fuk he would stream roller Mosley?? Burner your plain tripping :haha:
If anything Mosley is more durable then Clottey, but he has great hand speed and POWER to hurt Pac. Pac and Mosley would be a war in all honesty i would favour Mosley, he is not gonna fold like Cotto or turtle up like Clottey.
I said this 100 times. Pac aint losing to no Brawlers.
Pac was spinning off Clottey hed do the same to Shane who also is flat footed. It would be a war but I think Pac wears him down.
