The 135 version of Mosley was better than the 147 one. Too bad there wsnt too many good fighters at the weight at the time Mosley was in it.

The undefeated Phillip Holliday was his best win there and easily one of his greatest career wins. Holliday was a great fighter and in fact is a slight possibility for the HOF. He beat some great fighters himself and was an amazing lightweight until Mosley beat him. His best wins were HOFer Jeff Fenech, undefeated Ivan Robinson and undefeated Rocky Martinez, and his fight against the absolutely huge Miguel Julio was very impressive. Julio fought at Super middleweight against Kessler, Soliman etc. He was huge and Holliday knocked him out for the first time!
Some other good wins were against 'Sugar' Rojas and Taliaferro. He was good.
Apart from him though Mosley also beat John John Molina. Molina was a great three time champ that a prime Oscar couldn't stop whereas Mosley ****ed him up. Hardly anyone did that to Molina. He was a great fighter. Leija was also a top fighter and also a two time champ who beat Azumah Nelson and other great fighters like Louie Espinoza, Steve McCrory. After Mosley he went on to beat guys like Ivan Robinson, Micky Ward before getting blasted out by Tszyu.
That, among an eight defense reign, was pretty good. It doesn't equal the great lightweight runs of course but it was still damn good. Anyway, I would have to agree with most that Mosley would just be too much for Pac. Pac coming forward against the lightweight Mosley would be a recipe for disaster. I think he would get taken out in the late rounds or a UD.
