Johnny Benz, Doghouse Boxing -
I am not one of those pissed at Shane Mosley being the next fight for Manny Pacquiao. I'll be the first to say that Pacquiao deserves to pick his next fight. If critics believe that Mosley will be a walk in the park for Pacquiao... so be it. If it really is an easy fight... then what champ doesn't take and deserve an easy fight from time to time? Personally, we should all give Mosley a little more credit, as we all know he has some damn good skills and on any given night could prove a challenge to anyone.
I think critics and fans are more upset that the fight they really want next, Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr. is not happening. I can understand the frustrations, but is it Pacquiao's fault? No. Look, as much as I like both fighters, lets be honest... Mayweather has taken himself out of the running (I am sure by now you've read all about his mounting legal problems.)
So if it's an easy fight (as some believe Pac vs Sugar will be), or one I feel will offer Pacquiao enough of a challenge to keep his skills sharp... Pacquiao deserves to pick who he wants next. In defense of Mosley and food for thought, some may recall that when Michael Moorer became Heayweight Champ, he took an easy fight against an aging George Foreman... and Moorer lost that fight. So easy fights don't always turn out to be as predicted. I personally think Mosley has more than enough to make this a serious gun battle between two pugilists.
Hell, if Mayweather hadn't basically taken himself out of the game... I'd be one of the angry ones feeling that Mosley should step back and Pacquiao should be aiming his target at Mayweather... but that is not happening.
Maybe, just maybe, for anyone angry at Pacquiao vs. Mosley... perhaps they should be blaming Floyd Mayweather. Just a thought.
Let me ask U something,when Floyd cherrypicks who do U blanme for that??That's what I thought.So therefore I have ever right to blame Pacman for cherrypicking.Arum cannot make Pacman fight a fighter if he doesn't want to.Do U even realize how hypocritical U are,or U simply don't care as long as U have someone else to blame for his wrongs??
Dude,1st it was Floyd,now it's arum,U see??Who else are U gonna blame,Roach & all before U blame Pacman huh??
well said bro :fing02:....but I have a strong feeling you might have to repeat ya self....some dudes just don't get it yet...I swear!! :nonono:
yeah i know... obviously pac is cherrypicking, and we agree on that... but can't blame pac for that cherrypicking. arum's the devil here. pac won't stand alone in this business without the arum.

Stop it. Pac OKs everything before it is finalized dude, wake up.
Understand something dude,I'm not a Floyd fan in any way,shape,form or fashion,check the sig.But what I'm not gonna do,is blame Floyd for Pacman's cherrypicking,that's lame,period.

who should we blame for the following?
1. why floyd is not active in the sport right now?
He's in trial for personal issues.
2. why pac is cherrypicking and fighting mosley just to stay busy?
Was Margarito also a stay busy fight.Or was he simply an easy opponent for Pacman to supposedly break more records with without being in danger of losing is what U should ask urself truck.
intelligent answers please...
wow... personal issues... i thought you could have at least provided not-so-boring answer and yeah, could not agree more for margarito is just a stay busy fight. too bad floyd's personal issue from previous years ago got in the way when margarito, cotto, and mosley are way too hot in WW.

so the former WW king, P4P king, and 3 division world champion who has shown signs of being on the decline and hasn't won a fight since 2009 is JUST a stay busy fight for the God they call Manny Pacquiao?!?....stay busy?!?....I thought he was trying to add a big name to his resume....a name who he wouldn't have stood a chance against when the fight would've made sense....my bad!!

So Floyd is the reason Pac is fighting Shane and not Berto, JMM, Sergio Martinez or the winner of Bradley/Alexander??
Gotcha.
:nonono::nonono::nonono:
:lol1:....Floyd should change his last name to Arum.....this article is corny....can't believe a grown ass man would write such trash!!....sounds like a highschool Pac fan trying to justify this BS
again, floyd compromised. pac didnt. its not floyds fault
U know,I got no problem with Floyd fans for the most part anymore,but these kind of posts still irritate me,here's why:What compromises did Floyd do that U call facts my dude??If ur referring to Floyd compromising on his own extra $hit going above & beyond standard drug testing procedures,they hold no merit,none.Pacman has never tested positive,Floyd has no basis for speculation,therefore he really didn't compromise on standard drug testing,he compromised on his own extra $hit which really doesn't matter,leave that out,it holds no weight.

:nonono::nonono::nonono:
Yes, obviously. Floyd is Manny's promoter I guess.
:Thinkingo
Floyd forced Pac to fight SSM..........true story. Only flomos disagree......:banana::banana::banana:
'cept that the writer blaming Floyd is a fellow Flomo.
:banana:
Sergio martinez offered to meet manny at 154 for the junior middleweight and middleweight titles but naw manny deserves an easy fight. why not defend his "8th" world title? Lol im startn to think pac is half mexican, there's alot of cherry pickin goin on....
I don't think cherries grow in Pacman's country. Or do they?
I may be wrong. :boxing:
