Pacquiao speaks about fighting and his coming fight with Mosely

Link: http://philboxing.com/news/columns.php?aid=1130&id=49648 Translated by Spooon23. There are people who are saying that this will be an easy fight. The so called experts and writers since I started fighting has been belittling my capability as a filipino fighter.The more I fought bigger boxers the more they undermine my work. These so called expert writers who haven't laced up a boxing or fought in a real fight say it will be an easy fight. They say it is a garbage fight. and they say that boxing fans should boycot this fight. These are the same writers who say that boxing fans should boycott my fight with a proven cheater, Margarito. This is what I really have to say: There is never an easy fight. Every time I step into the ring, I risk my life and my future. I had to find ways to negate the advantages in size of Diaz, Dela Hoya, Hatton, Cotto, Clottey and Margarito. I have stepped up to face men easily bigger and taller than me. To say that every fighter I face in the ring does not deserve attention talks about ignorance. How can a fight be easy when I have been working my hardest efforts every single time? I am no superman. When I get hit, I pretend I did not get hurt so as to frustrate my opponent. That's part of the sacrifice! Funny, these same writers who ask for a boycott almost always cover my fights, anyway. During the fight with Margarito,a lot of people didn't realize that for me it was the hardest fight of my life. when he hit me, i felt the power of his punches of a true former welterweight champ with a 5 inch and 17 pound advantage over me. Same situation with Shane, who is a former champion. I believe this is a harder fight. He has speed and ring smarts. And because my title for pound for pound is at stake. I will make sure I will train hard for anyone who wants to take me out of my reign as p4p. When Margarito fought Mosely, many were laughing at me when I said Mosely will win. Mosely is the one I chose to win the fight and I got the last laugh. Now I say, Shane is still very much dangerous. Bernard Hopkins is much older at 45 years old but i think he won that fight which ended in a draw! Until the next combination. God Bless us all.

most pac fans doesnt like the fight. sure..some would defend and rationalize the fight just to annoy the haters. It's only rational to believe that Mosely will always have a punchers chance knowing that the last to go out in a boxer when he gets old is power.. So knowing mosely is old, we all know it ain't going the distance.. It's not a fight we like but the fight we want to have ain't there coz sissy Floyd can't man-up.

Dude stay away from to much crack.. It ain't healthy lol :thinking: bro he's a flomo and i'm sure he's a crackhead just like the mayweather's family. :lol1:

Yeah,ok.So I guess we should all just believe that right??Like Freddy Roach didn't say that they were gonna beat Margarito's a$$ because "they saw his last 2 fights" right??Or that his 3 welterweight fights were coincidentally all top rank fighters.I could have maybe believed it,if everything wasn't stacked in their favor,sorry.Now they're fighting Mosley,who they wouldn't fight at 142 a couple years ago,who also coincidentally looked bad in his previous 2 fights.I never gave Floyd a break with his contradictions,I'm not giving Manny 1 for his. BUt we can't get the Floyd the Chicken to fight Pac!! So Pac's taking the last fighter Floyd thinks was the best IN mOSLEY! JMM's only the 2nd choice coz he cant even win a rd with Floyd. bErto's done nothing! Dont Blame Pac!! Blame Floyd!!

You pactards brought it upon yourself, when Mayweather whooped Mosley you all went 'Mosley is old, shot and Mayweather blood drained him(LOL)' and all of a sudden Pac faces Mosley its a legit fight? It's called hypocrisy guys, the real pac fans are the ones who admit this fight is bogus. as I said all greats have tune-up stay sharp fights.. You can call it at that. Not hyped about this fight but pac is fighting. It;s a pac show now. Ali did it before even fought b class fighter to stay sharp. It's a stay sharp fight. for me what matters left is a fight with Floyd. Nothing more. Pac has nothing to prove anymore. He has done so much already. Until Floyd grows some balls and man-up. I say pac should stay out of boxing. There is no more to prove. One fight left that is with Floyd. So whoever pac wants to fight I don;t give a ****. It's Floyd or no one. But to keep pac from not rusting he needs to fight so he would be ready when sissy Floyd comes out of the closet.

i agree that arum cherry picked mosley. fighting mosley at this point wont help pac's legacy at all. let pac fight the younger fighters As a said it's just a stay sharp kind a fight. All greats have an easy fight in between big fights. Pac deserves his. What's important he still fight unlike chicken floyd.

Pac didn't offer Mosley the fight at 142,Mosley went to Roaches gym to beg a fight.Roach said he was too good.Now after loosing at least 10 rounds against Floyd badly & not looking impressive vs Mora,all of a sudden he's ready for Mosley.How was he taking baby steps,Pacman has 3 championship fights above 140.He has five 5 at 140 & over,the man asks for catchweights a lot,hasn't beaten a fighter coming of a solid win in almost as much time as he's fought above 140,call it whatever U like & make as much excuses as U want,Pacman's team are master cherryoickers,just like his arch rival. It's not an excuse. Ali fought in one weight divisions and fought tune-ups.. Pac is the king and has gone up 8 divisions.. I say it only right pac has the right to have a tune-up if you think mosely is just a cakewalk and a tune-up fighter, all the greats have tune-ups are stay active fights. This is just one of them. It make sense to earn top dollar and fight the most logical coz fighters risk there life entering a ring. And the next salable fight is mayweather but that guys ain't fighting inside the ring but outside where there is a jury lol.. Dud, If your risking your life I say get the best money fight, It's called prize fighting. There are no more markee name that can give pac a cool 15m guaranteed purse its only mayweather. The other fighters have to build there name before they can face the king. Be rational and you'll get it.

People seem to forget that Pac was a freakin featherweght 2 or 3 years ago. Now that Pac is whooping the Margaritos and Mosleys at 147 and 154, they calll it "CHERRYPICKING"??lol PAC must really be the GOAT. True, people think pac's talent has no limits. Some dumbass even think he can go fight heavy Weights.

Bro, when you grew up. When you were a toddler and learning how to walk. you don't just start to run as a toddler you make baby steps first. Same as climbing up.. if you are a king of boxing and have a luxury if testing the waters and dipping it lightly by not giving your opponent too much advantage. Then you should. Pac was offering mosely a fight at 142 coz he is entering unknown territory. Now that he is a true welter and battle tested it is only logical that they fight at 147. And just a reminder Pac Fought cotto who beat mosely. So you can't really say he is ducking. What Pac is doing is cleaning up the division. And every greats in history had a tune-up fight or a stay sharp fight. Pac deserves that now that chicken Floyd ain't even remotely thinking about boxing. Pac deserves a light fight if you guys think it is light or is a tune-up. All greats even ali had opponents that are b class. It's called the Ali show. Now it's the Pac show. Honestly this fight with mosely will be good for 4 rounds. But it will create fireworks. After that pac will blitz him. This for sure will be an exciting fight as long as mosely don't gas out quick. This will still be a good fight to watch. Pac didn't offer Mosley the fight at 142,Mosley went to Roaches gym to beg a fight.Roach said he was too good.Now after loosing at least 10 rounds against Floyd badly & not looking impressive vs Mora,all of a sudden he's ready for Mosley.How was he taking baby steps,Pacman has 3 championship fights above 140.He has five 5 at 140 & over,the man asks for catchweights a lot,hasn't beaten a fighter coming of a solid win in almost as much time as he's fought above 140,call it whatever U like & make as much excuses as U want,Pacman's team are master cherryoickers,just like his arch rival.
