    Mosley only relies on his power now n days. He may throw a jab to the solar plexus but that is about it. He doesn't throw combos that much and doesn't go to the body like he use to.

    He is not a come forward brawler according to me, but this is according to those who claim guys like Morales Barrera, and Cotto were. If those guys fit the description then Mosley definitely does, because all three aforementioned fighters are more versatile than this current version of Shane.

      "A come forward brawler"

      Ok, so now you didn't mean that. Got it

      And none of those three guys fit that description unless your a dumbass. Then again, only a dumbass would describe Shane as a come-forward brawler.

      Anyway, who cares? From Jan. 2009 to May 2010, Mosley was the division's toughest challenge. And he would have given Pacquiao hell. In fact, I wouldn't have been stunned if he knocked Manny the **** out. Especially without the testing

        Honestly If you think Manny is afraid of Mosley, then why has he fought two guys who arguable beat him (Cotto and Oscar) and was willing to face the guy who dominated him over 12 round (Floyd Mayweather)?

        If anything Mosley style is tailor made for Manny, whereas Floyd style would give Manny the most problems. If there was a fighter Pac and his team would duck, then it's Floyd, but they didn't.....hence then trying twice to make fights with him.

        Hell Marquez style is a nightmare for Manny (atleast at that time) and Manny fought him twice...even after going life and death in the 1st fight. He was even gonna fight him a third time until Beristain killed it with his ridiculous demands.

        Again....tell me what in Shane's game would cause Manny to duck him. A come forward brawler who rarely counters......to me that sounds like the type of fighter that Manny gets accused of cherry picking for easy fights.
        1.He came off of destroying Marga's who ya boy is about to fight.NO.Mosley and Manny are similar they fight with their heart and will.Roach knows Pacmonsters eagerest to trade and you don't wanna be in there trading with Mosley.I do believe the x factor in that fight is roach because he would calm Pac down and get him focus on their game plan.But if someone could take him off track it would be Shane,oh and Shane is a harder puncher then Pac as well.

        Remember Shane fought the best version's of these guy's you talking about in Hoya and Cotto.He also fought guy's Pac what not have dreamed of fighting.Like Forest could you see Pac fighting him??Or Wright do you see Pac monster jumping in the ring with that beast??Think long and hard before you answer those questions...

        How long did it take for Pac to fight Marquez again??His Career could not move forward until he did,It had nothing to do with him really wanting to fight Marquez so badly come-on man..

          Out of curiosity....If Shane beats the **** out of Mora and then goes on to beat someone like Angulo, Cotto or Berto....will you have an issue with Manny fighting him if the fight with Floyd falls through for a third time?

          I say this because I really want to see it happen to shut up the people who feel Pac was ducking Shane when it was nothing more than a smart move by Top Rank to keep Cotto.

            i don't know why a ***** would bring up a williams or a martinez match up for pac but would not push for those options for floyd? it's like they're looking for a shortcut...if williams or martinez beats pac then there's no more reason for floyd to fight him.

              Depends on what Manny's other options are and how Shane looks. Reality.

              I say this because I really want to see it happen to shut up the people who feel Pac was ducking Shane when it was nothing more than a smart move by Top Rank to keep Cotto.
              He didn't duck Shane. He didn't duck Paul Williams either. He just didn't fight them. Let's go, Margarito!

                Cool. So if Shane gets some good wins under his belt would you get mad if Shane and Pac fought?

                Also I have followed Marquez for a while, I can't say I'm a fan, but it was hard for him to get fights with the top guys. Manny could have ducked him like everyone else and no one would care but he gave the man two fights and could have been a third if it wasn't for Beristain.

                My thing is this, those matchups were hard for Pacquiao but he didn't duck those opportunity. I agree that Shane would be a good fight for him, but if there was ever a style that Manny would avoid...it would have been Floyd's as his style is harder to face than Shane's, yet Manny entered negotiations with Mayweather twice.

                  LOL @ the stans asking if it's ok for Manny to fight Mosley a year or two from now. The moment has passed. Just like Floyd-Margarito circa 2006. Clottey and Tony. SMH. Pretty ****ty year for the Fighter of the Last Decade but his fans loved it.

                    pac should take it easy while floyd is on vacation. he should preserve his energy. margarito is too much for a waiting-for-a-vacationer fight. i love to see pac against a zero-risk opponent like a malignaggi maybe so he doesn't need to train hard. just coast along and take paulie to a ud win. maybe a sight like would make floyd to come out from his hole and fight pac eventually.

                      As it's not hard to tell I'm a hugh Mosley fan,I like May and Pacmonster both.But I look at all their careers with an honest eye.Mayweather has the hardest style to beat out of all of them..Pac is the fastest and Mosley has the most will.In a fight between Pac and Mosley someone would get KO'd Mayweather vs Pac I still don't have an answer yet as to who win's it,but Pac is the only guy who would come close..I don't really care much for this Marga's fight I would have much rather had seen him fight Bradley TBH.I believe that would have been a real good fight...
