        You can argue that 7 pounds made the difference and him not having made it in like 10 years, but with Msoley it could still effect him.

        Nate Campbell was on target for 135 that whole week and couldn't work off those last 3 or so pounds and came in overweight.

          Like I said: Of course it can make a difference. But the act that he so completely outsizes Pac is a fair equalizer. Team Pac isn't wrong for trying to gain an advantage in some way.

            Some? It can be huge. Look at what it did to DLH, it's a joke. Of course Mosley probably won't be that bad, but you know what this looks like? It looks like he's picking on an old guy trying to get him drained when there are potentially better fights out there for him such as Cotto or Mayweather...

            Maybe he's not because Shane just beat Margarito, which was a great win, but who knows how the age could effect him by that time. Shane will be 38 by the time that fights happens. He shouldn't have to drain himself at an old age just to land the fight...

            Personally, I don't think there's no reason why Mayweather-Pacquiao shouldn't happen unless they can't agree to a purse spilt or whatever, but it seems Pacquiao picked Mosley before even weighing out his other options.

            Mosley-Cotto II would be worth much more too because they are filling the belt. The winner of Mayweather-Pac can face that winner for the WW title.

            Another thing, what makes more money? Pacquiao-Mayweather or Pacquiao-Mosley? Hell even Cotto-Pacquiao does more money....I don't see why they are making this fight to be honest.

              IMO, Cotto does not make for a bigger threat than Mosley. Mosley is faster, more physical and has a better chance of staying on his feet for 12.

              Shane is coming down 3 pounds. Oscar Delahoya came down to 145. Please don't try and compare those... They're too different.

                They picked Mosley because Pac should win the fight. Mosley isnt the smartest fighter in the ring, doesnt adjust too well and only moves his head after he gets hit in it.

                    I'm loving how Pacquiao is going to get KO'd in every fight. Hatton, he's going to KO manny! Oscar, manny is going to get MURDERED!!

                    Pac keeps elevating his game and yet every fight its popular to say he's going to get KO'd!

                    You guys forget about Cotto vs Mosley? Cotto, who everyone on this site loves to say has a weak or shaky chin, went the distance and beat Mosley. Pacman is even faster than cotto, IS the better fighter than cotto and his style is a problem for everyone. And yet mosley will KO pacman? crazy talk!
