      A) It wouldn't be a superfight. Financially, it would hurt all parties involved with a Mayweather/Pacquiao superfight. It would garner little if any interest from the casual fans and the media.

      B) Mayweather has a rematch clause with Mosley.

      C) If Clottey won, I'm sure a rematch with Pac or Cotto would be a bigger fight financially than fighting Mosley.

      D) I guess the correct thing to say is I would watch the fight, but to be honest, I don't give a **** about Mosley vs. Clottey. I'd still watch it because I'm a fan of the sport, but it doesn't have the intrigue of a Mayweather/Pacquiao matchup.

        Mayweather and Pac could both lose their upcoming fights and still draw more fighting once eachother than Shane and Clottey would in a trilogy.

          Well if Sugar Shane beats Mayweather, and Clottey beats Pacquiao, I think that could turn out to be an even bigger fight, just because noone is expecting that at all! I know I sure as hell would watch it! And youd have to be crazy not to watch it after those 2 upset the two best boxers of our generation!

            You're buggin'. Mayweather and Pacquiao could both lose and it would still be ten times bigger than Clottey vs. Mosley.

              You mean De La Hoya Mayweather, of course.
