Comments Thread For: Mosley To Target Sergio Martinez, Eyes Pacquiao at 160

[Mr. Philadel]

I agree but I will buy it and support Shane.The same way Manny and Floyd fans support their fighters.

thats right!!!!

[Mr. Philadel]

i agree. 38 years old, inactive for 18 months, back to back training camps add a fallout fight in the middle, against the best boxer this decade and you have some good reasons shane looked bad from round 4 and up.

my only concern was how bad he was gasping from round 6 and up. the endurance just was not there for some reason.

lets see how he looks against mora whos length, height and bigger frame will be challenging in its own right.

i dont agree with a ppv for this fight tho. hbo would have been more sufficient

Good Post!!!

mosley got his ass beat by floyd....martinez & pac will easily beat him imo

@ 160? **** pacquiao couldnt make 160 eating mc donalds for a week and drinking a gallon of water before the weigh in

[Rome-By-Ko]

I for one would not mind seeing Shane try his luck with Martinez.Shane is a good fighter and if he has anything left is a problem for any fighter...

Agreed. Not because Floyd is SO GREAT but because Mosley simply can't beat a capable boxer. Winky, Vernon, Cotto, Floyd... Manny and Sergio fit right into that name category.

DLH wasn't a capable boxer?!?...what about the slick southpaw Collazo?....and for your info...ANY fighter including the GREAT ones have trouble with capable boxers....thats just how the sport is

Damn, did I hit a nerve? Don't get mad, but it is simply the truth. Mosley is from my hometown of Pomona, he is MY BOY. That being said there is nothing wrong with not being able to beat guys who can box well, Oscar was not one of them. Oscar is purely a come forward fighter except in his fight with Tito in which he ran. Collazo has no power and isn't even that good, if Mosley lost to him he doesn't deserve the name Sugar. Relax man, Cotto can't handle pressure fighters and Mosley can't handle boxers it happens, nothing wrong with it. Styles make fights its that simple, Mosley grew up eating come forward fighters his whole life living in Souther Cali, there is a reason he eats guys like Oscar, Vargas, Margarito ALIVE its all he's fought his entire life.

Hoya was a pure Boxer not a pressure fighter.Think about it Hoya beat Vargas with what not pressure.He beat Quartey with what not pressure.He beat whitaker with what not pressure.People give Hoya a bad rap but IMHO Hoya was a great boxer and Shane IMO beat the best version of Hoya.I see what your saying about Shane having problems with pure boxers but let's look at those pure boxers shall we.Wright,Forest were damn MW IMO and Mosley just came from fighting at lighter weights when he fought both of umm.Cotto that fight was close and should have IMO been scored a draw(even tho I had Shane by two points)the fact that this is always a debate shows how close that fight was.Floyd is IMO the one of the best fighters of this era no shame in losing to him.I would like to see him fight Martinez cause I think he would give him trouble.Manny Pac is not a pure boxer he is a slugger with skill his style is similar to Mosley's.But he has taken care of alot of his bad habits something that Shane has not done.Shane would be in the fight with either one of umm IMO long as he has something left.

The Cotto/Mosley fight was close, but is only an issue with people who like Mosley more than Cotto. Even Mosley openly admitted at best it was a draw and this is coming from the horses mouth. Also, DLH may have won all those fights you mentioned by boxing, but he tried to slug it out with Mosley and lost. The second fight DLH seem to box more, I feel he won that fight, but Mosley still got the nod. As for Winky and Vernon don't give this **** that they were MW's, they made the 147 pound limit which made them WW so lets end that **** right now. Also, of course Shane can hang with Manny it suits his style but he would still lose, he's not nearly as fast as he used to be and Mayweathers speed ate him alive and Manny is not only as fast but throws more and is more powerful. Mosley would give him a fight but he would still lose to Manny at this stage.

I just want to touch on the Cotto fight again. They landed the same amount of punches but Cotto threw 100 less how in the hell does a guy do the exact same as the other guy, with 100 FEWER punches and end up losing by two rounds? Anyone who thinks Mosley WON the Cotto fight are haters, huggers or just plain ******. I'll give you a draw but thats the closest Mosley will ever come to winning that fight.
