Comments Thread For: Shane Mosley and Sergio Mora Battle To an Ugly Draw

[GRUSTLER]

nah he didnt tell me personally. people lie when they tell you stuff. i saw visual evidence.

pac ducked shane? LOL..... the same shane that miguel cotto beat? the same shane that gassed after the 3rd round vs floyd? that shane that showed up vs floyd & mora would have been murked by manny. as for the roach too good comment, anybody with a ounce of analytical perception can see that roach was trying to placate mosley & tell mosley no in a nice way. Pac vs Cotto was already in effect when all this mosley talk happened.

You are doing the same thing that pac fans do with floyd. claim duck for any fighter that pac didnt face but floyd did with mosley just like the pac fans do with cotto & now margarito.

be honest. we all know who would have won those fights.

& when did pac duck shane? could you please show me a link where team shane offered pac a fight date, fight venue, fight weight, & fight purse that pac turned down?

Shane tried to make a fight with Pacquiao and Floyd right after he
beat Margarito and both declined. Mosley was willing to go down
to 140 to fight Pac and the fight still didn't happen. Honestly man,
Manny hasn't fought anyone out of the Top Rank roster in a long
time. To me that just looks like his fight are being hand picked to
me. I am aware that other fighters do it too but you can act
oblivious like Pac never did it. Shane wanted the fight and Pac,
Freddie and or Arum didn't. No matter how you spin it, Mosley
after the Margarito win was the man to beat at 147. Roach was
saying how Cotto is not the same fighter after the Margarito loss.
MEANING he was playing it safe. Not the same Cotto at 145 for
his title when he was the champ and Manny was the challenger?
Sounds like politics to me. I have no personal grudges against
any fighter, but rather just call it how I see it. Once the fans of
the sport stop walking around blind then the better off things will
be.

This is Ross Greenburg's alternative to showing the heavyweights ... A snoozefest that made Valuev - Haye look like Ali - Frazier iii? At least Haye and the Klitschkos usually knock people out ... Greenburg is really a tool and should be fired ...

HBO's boxing programming is sinking fast ... Greenburg has no idea what he's doing ...anyone who paid the full price for that ppv should demand a refund from HBO ...

you are absolutely correct in every aspect

I just watched the fight.

Mosley won clearly in my eyes. Despite the fact that he looked faded, exhausted, huffing and puffing, inaccurate, etc etc

Continuing on from that sudden drop in round 2 of the Mayweather fight. Concluding he wasn't the same fighter going into the Mayweather fight.

HBO team were overly harsh on Mora though. Actually Jim was on the atack for most of the card.

Goodnight.

I just watched the fight... Thanks to the guy that posted the link BTW. I had it scored just like lederman.... I dont know how anyone could have Mora winning the way that judge had it. I think his name was Kermit or something along those lines. But the entire fight, Mora was just trying not to get hit with anything big. When he finally sat down alittle from rounds 9-12 he started getting hit with big shots. I dont know what happened there but whatever. I thought this fight was going to answer my questions if Shane should fight again, but now I need to see him actually fight. Mora was just in there to survive.

At Staples Center in Los Angeles, a battle of former junior middleweight champions saw "Sugar" Shane Mosley (46-6-1, 39KOs) and Sergio "Latin Snake" Mora (22-1-2, 6KOs) battle to a twelve round draw. The scores were 115-113 for Mora, 116-112 for Mosley and 114-114 for the draw.

i can't believe everyone here was expecting an exciting Mosley/Mora fight. i mean the guys was awesome in his day but it's time to turn over the badge and call it quits.
