    We'll just have to wait and see. I think that Roach does want Mosley and Cotto though but he wants them on his terms, Mosley needs the fight more than Pacquiao does really because of where he is right now in his career and because of his divorce so I think he'll agree to a 143 or 144 pound catchweight.

      i hate fights like this - they make it impossible to predict a winner.

      you just know that one guy will dominate, the reason fight fans loved fights like JMM pacman, castillo corrales, calzaghe kessler, JMM diaz, katsidis casamayor etc is because the fight was even. during the fight you knew that it was an even contest.

      this will be the complete opposite either one man will dominate or the other will dominate and that ruins the spectacle imo.

      personally i think sugar shane is a grat fighter who is now just chasing the dollars and imo he will pay for that. he can get at least a couple of fights against cotto, clottey, berto, collazo he still has the beating of alot of guys at 154: cintron, angulo, kirkland.

      imo he will make more from 2 of those fights than he would from the fight with pacman and furthermore he won't **** up his body in the process.

      SSM is the only fighter in the modern era who has gone down a weight class and kept his skills (from 154 to 147) but imo 142 is too much. he will be a corpse and he will lose.

        I think he can make it but his Stamina and Speen would suffer though. I still think he could win if he doesn't lose too much muscle but chances are because he's already avery muscular build he'd be losing muscle to get down.

        I would be rooting for Shane to win but i wouldn't mind Pacquiao winning.

          If he tortured himself he could get to 144/145.
