“I pick Mosley to win that fight because he can throw a lot of punches compared to Mayweather who’s a very defensive boxer. Defense can’t win fights, especially against a fighter like Mosley who relies on speed”
- Pacquiao

he's right, defence doesn't win fights, hahaha at the retards thinkin floyd wins on defence
he wins on clean punching
you could dodge all the punches in the world, but if your not throwin nothin back and the other guy is outworkin you, your losing the rounds
I think its funny that everyone jumps on manny
dude he is ESL
he has a lot of trouble with the english language
what he probably means is that Shane is going to be more active and win on activity alone
here it is back on Feb 5th Pac saying Mosley will win. He just keeps flip flopping but I think the Mosley comments always seem more genuine and he only picks Floyd when people say that Clottey was inferior so he tries to make Shane look inferior

This is a video when he sort of suggests shane will win
but there was a video about 2 weeks ago when he said floyd should win. Not sure if it was on the kimmell show or what. I can't find it
Pac and Roach had both been saying Floyd wins for the most part.
So I interpret these comments a lot weeker especially as they're a bit vague.
He stands more to gain IMO saying Floyd, because it makes it seem SSM isn't a big, top, big enough opponent to beat him, so Floyd would still have to step it up against him.
Wow he changed his mind
its not true, he's just a fool that keeps going back & forths. From the very jump he picked Shane and not until recently did he start picking Floyd but to me it only sounded like he was picking Floyd to make it look like Floyd has an easier fight. I think he genuinely believes Shane will win
uhm defense does win fights.. hes just trying to downplay floyd. im not saying pac is a bad prediction maker since he picked shane over margarito. im guessing he like shane and thinks hes this great figure.nd uhm btw alot of fighters have thrown alot of punches and floyd uses his defense to wear them out. like love more ndou and de la hoya who also had pretty good hand speed
No. If Floyd beats Mosley, it will be because of his defense. Obviously landing more and/or better shots is what wins, but Floyd won't put heavy leather on Mosley. If he wins it'll be because he stuck and moved. Pac should know better than to make a statement like this.
