Does mosley hits harder than pacquaio @ 147

It doesn't settle it when you factor in Manny having Porter on ***** street several times and stopping himself from finishing him... with headgear and 16oz gloves on in sparring... and when Porter is probably as heavy as a SMW.

People still underestimate Pacquiao. I love it.

Before the Margarito fight there were articles on here like "Cotto ripping through sparring partners", blah blah blah. Manny has supreme power but let's not use overhyped training camp folk lore as proof of anything.

Shawn Porter is a prospect who is 10-0, big whoop.

Listen,I love Pacman too,but saying he hits harder than Mosley,is a little overboard,no??Is Porter ranked,is he in the top 10 at any weight??Mosley ko'd champions!!If Mosley fought the version of Oscar that Pacman fought,I believe Oscar would have slept on the canvas,don't u??

No, you said Pac's elusive head and I said "the head that Marquez hit more times than Pac hit his(Marquez's head)?

Marquez landed more shots on Manny than Manny landed on him. Manny better not think he can beat Cotto doing that.

Marquez has more speed and better counter punching ability than Cotto. Manny's footwork and defense has improved since the Marquez fight.

So the question still remains. Does Cotto have enough speed to catch Manny?

Not sure, ask Zab Judah, he probably knows more than me on the subject.

nah. I'm actually pretty curious to see how MP carries the power at 147. He's obviously got power going up to 140 but if you watch the DLH fight it was more an accumilation of punches that stopped him than power. Mosleys stopped guys at 154.

About the same, Cotto is a bigger puncher than Shane though as evident in their fight.

No, but Cotto does have a great ability to time. Like Marquez, Cotto will not be as quick as Pac, but will be able to time Pac's movement. Cotto has shown that in the Clottey, Mosely, Judah Fight. http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/sh...&postcount=122

Well Cotto did get hurt against guys that weren't as powerful as Shane so whats your point?

[mnbv]

pacquiao is a sharp shooter, his speed and his ability to connect multiple punches in different angle. it can knock cotto out.

both are great fighters. either of the two could win the fight.

Margarito would disagree.
