Have you seen the weigh in to Pac's final bout @ 130lbs? Versus Marquez? I couldn't tell if he was alive or not, compared to the way Marquez looked.

Going up in weight, Pac finally doesn't have to drain himself, giving him more time to work on strategy and skills in training camp. Being even a bit drained can effect your ability to take punches.
Of course Mosley has more one punch KO power than Pacquiao. Remember, the punches that hurt the most are the ones you don't see coming. There WILL be many moments where Marg gets caught by punches he didn't see coming from Pac.
Marquez is my 2nd favorite active boxer (1st being Cotto), and I do not see him winning against Pacquiao at their current stages of their careers, no matter the weight class, unless Pac can still make 135lbs safely.
Pac forgot what it's like to get pounded on? Hell, I would rather take a 130lbs JMM left hook than a 145lbs Cotto straight right (Cotto isn't known for having a good right straight).

Mental games. Going all out in the first rounds against an endurance fighter who awakens late in the fight is silly. It worked well against Hatton because the guy is not famous for having great endurance and punch resistance, he had to focus on not allowing him to get momentum.

A face is just a face, it can only take so much punishment. Once that Pac lands 3 or 4 of those 6 punch combinations in the first rd, it will be apparent that Margs won't last the distance. He might not even last half the fight for that matter.

He ate some viscous shots from Cotto and stopped him late. He practically swallowed bombs from Mosley, getting put down for good late in the fight.
