Is Pacquiao & Roach trying to make a point taking a fight with Mosley?

So what if the fight is a farce. Dude has taken alot of shots the last three fights so when you put in the work he has you earn the right to fight whoever you want to. If he wants to chill and take a easy fight, so be it. Two things come to mind in regards to the mosley fight, the first point has been brought up a million times but its true, mosley damn near KO'd one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world in Mayweather, and number two is MANNY can pick and choose who he wants to fight. When other fighters earn that right, then they can do the same. As long as the guy stays active and he fights elite fighters or at least world champions, then im not going to hate on him. Its alot better than Mayweather fighting dwarf Marquez. Here we go again...almost KO'd...i guess i missed the part when mayweather was picking himself off the canvas...i guess Margarito almost KO'd Pacquiao in the 6th round too...

The only thing this would prove is that Mayweather is a bigger draw than Pacquiao. Pacquiao vs Mosley won't sell what Mayweather vs Mosley did. Exactly, this is just going to give Mayweather additional ammunition to get more money in the next round of negotiations. Really dumb move by Pacman and his team o dimwits.

lmao they can't beat Mayweather where they want to and that's in PPV buys....for negotiation leverage This is going to be the the 4th PPV opponent they will share in common and Floyd has already destroyed them in PPV numbers in every other fight...and there is no way this fight makes nothing close to Floyd's 1.4 million fight with Shane I'm not one to care about PPVs but it's obvious after this fight that Floyd should not take 50-50...this is just going to set the fight back even more IMO

re What was the fight at again 144? I'm pretty sure Pac wouldn't mind settling at 144. If you honestly believe Pac wouldn't annihilate Marquez at anything above 135 you're only fooling yourself.

I think this is quite a straight forward answer. It's obvious they want to send out a message to Mayweather. Something along the lines of 'Anything you can do, we can do better'. Floyd beat JMM better Manny doesn't seem to anxious to do him better in that regard~ Just sayin

And Floyd isn't of course?? Don't kid urself Billy,Floyd cherrypicks whenever he fights too!!But the biggest difference is that 90% of boxing fans are quick to point it out about Floyd while 90% are quick to give Pacman a pass for the same $hit!!But if U happened to post the above thinking i was a fan of Floyd,U ARE DEAD WRONG!!

are you for real or just plain stupid its all about money If it was all about money then, why are they not fighting Marquez? Marquez vs Pacquiao III is the biggest DRAW in boxing after Mayweather vs Pacquiao.

Everybody knows this fight is a farce. There is only one reason this fight is going ahead if it does that happen - to prove a point to Mayweather. are you for real or just plain stupid its all about money

The only thing that fight will prove is that team Pacman are bonified cherrypickers!! And Floyd isn't of course??

there proving there farces

I think this is quite a straight forward answer. It's obvious they want to send out a message to Mayweather. Something along the lines of 'Anything you can do, we can do better'. whats the point.......... floyds schools them and then manny comes along to knock em out,thats proving nothing

I thought about that angle and it is going to work also. Pac will for sure get more credit for beating Mosley than PBF. As a fan of boxing it is straight bullsh!t but as a man that is great marketing and money making planning right there. Willing to bet points that Manny will get more credit from the media and fans for beating Mosley than PBF did!!!!!

whats the point they are trying to prove???? I think this is quite a straight forward answer. It's obvious they want to send out a message to Mayweather. Something along the lines of 'Anything you can do, we can do better'.

They're not making a point. They just want the money fight.

The only thing that fight will prove is that team Pacman are bonified cherrypickers!!

whats the point they are trying to prove????
