I disagree on that and MAB is one of my all time faves.
At anyweight Shane would destroy him and he was the better fighter IMO.
Not P4P Burner..,.
I am starting to think you guys were not watching Barrera in his prime...
Shane is the better fighter, has the better skill, and is rated higher. The only thing you can compare is the age. But Manny did stop MAB in the 11th. If Floyd stops Mosley too, then the Mosley win is better. If not, then the MAB win holds court.
no
no
no
Do none of you guys remember how highly touted Barrera was at the time?
Has MAB ever been better than Mosley at any stage of their respective careers.............????
the answer is no.
Mosley is getting discredited here on the daily.........it's some repugnant shit....the only blight SSM has against his name is PED use......
The answer is yes
No, Barrera was in his prime. Plus Pacquiao was the underdog.
This, pac pulled a major upset here. floyd beating shane is something that most of are expecting. the only way floyd MIGHT could possibly out do what pac did to MAB is if he brutally KO's shane.
LOL look at the haters!
People even said at length that all Pac's fights was with fighters who are shot :nono:
Well not the first time he fought Barrera :boxing:
morales 1 and 2 wasn't shot.
jmm wasn't shot.
oscar was about as shot when he fought floyd.
cotto looked good as he ever did.
he fought hatton at his best weight.
mab, in no way shape or form is shot when they fought. even the second time.
That's how good Floyd is, a former Super Featherweight wins over Sugar Shane Mosley, #1 WW, is not much. A Pacquiao win over Sugar Shane Mosley...Pacquiao can retire with that win and didn't even need Barrera, Marquez or Morales. A win over Mosley is more impressive than a win over those 3 put together(for Pacquiao). But for Mayweather he needs to fight Mosley, Williams, Martinez, Ward, Dawson, Adamek, Wlad.
Easily one of the most ridiculous post Ive read in many years. :pat:

Luis Collaso - Impressive
Miguel Cotto - LOST
Ricardo Mayorga - The KO saved shane but wasnt as impressive compared to the collazo fight
Antonio Margarito - Very Impressive
Its not even debatable at this point in time. Shane was a great fighter but not this version. This Version is not consistent. Shane needs another good run just to match what Barrera has done.
exactly.
this wasn't even supposed to be a serious thread.

by who?
you?
Thing is at this weight 147 fighting Floyd you will see the best Mosley has brought to a boxing ring since he fought ODH , this is such afight to Shane he is hungry like he hasnt felt for many years ,,,, thats the difference .
that's not a fact. that's an opinion.
fact is, barrera was on an impressive winning streak before him and manny fought. went on another impressive streak after their fight. he was very much prime, or at the very least, very close to it.
mosley struggled with mayorga, and his win over a one-dimensional, emotionally ****ed up margarito has been overrated recently.
regardless, a win against mosley is pretty solid, no denying it. not just as good as manny's win over barrera.
it ain't even close

Mosley is better than Barrera , not by much but is a better fighter all around , I actually think Mosley at this stage is a better win than any in Pacs career.

I don't know...It would be pretty close, only because of the situation they are in. Everyone thought Barrera was gonna bully Floyd. I'd put an old Shane ahead of a prime Barrera, but the situation was amazing for Pacquiao. That was a huge accomplishment for him, and it was the start of his reign. Before that he was fighting "tricycle men" or whatever he said about Valero. lol
Help me understand this part.....LOL
makes sense. counter-arguement anyone?
Mosley is better than Barrera , not by much but is a better fighter all around , I actually think Mosley at this stage is a better win than any in Pacs career.
