Maybe but would he have dominated Shane in the same fashion as Mayweather? Could he have taken the shots that May did in second round? Shane could of bullied Pac more than he did Mayweather before he gassed out. Different fight imo but Pac would beat Shane(which I didn't think he could a few days ago).
Real talk, Pacquiao would have sopped the mosley we saw on saturday.

I don't see why people are looking at Floyd's performance and saying Pacquiao could have stopped Mosley.
Pacquiao doesn't fight like Mayweather. Pacquiao wouldn't have been able to break down Mosley mentally like Floyd did.
Floyd is known for this sorta thing. He makes people feel utterly hopeless against him. He goes in there feels out an opponent and then all of a sudden everything his opponent does, doesn't work. The **** that worked the first 2 rounds doesn't work anymore, why? So they begin to break down mentally and then physically.
Pacquiao doesn't do that. He is all about being in your face and hitting you, just straight slugging it out. Mosley wouldn't have felt the same hopelessness against Pacquiao because Pacquiao wouldn't have made it feel like everything he is doing, isn't working.
I still stand by what I said before. I believe Mosley would have stopped Pacquiao. Why? Because style to style, not "I watched Mayweather do it, so Pacquiao must be able to do it too.".... Style to style, Pacquiao plays right into Mosley's game. It would be like a faster version of Margarito in there, minus the granite chin and height.
If the speed advantage doesn't get to Mosley, which it won't because Mosley's only real weakness is the jab, which Pacquiao doesn't have a good one. It will end up being... who's chin is stronger? Who can punch harder?
Mosley's chin > Pacquiao's chin
Mosley's power > Pacquiao's powerComment

I was going to say that just because George Foreman could KO Frazier, and Ali couldn't, doesn't mean Ali won't be Foreman.
But you already know this.Comment
