    Mosley was throwing bigger bombs and he was bigger then Pacquiao. Plus Margarito was bigger against Pacquiao.

      that is true. margrito was so tall.

      tyson or hamed or frazier should never fight on taller man.

        Shane with hitting him with big 1 punches shots over and over again as opposed to Pacqiauo landing quick combos, which will have mor effect on you, and Shane hits harder, so thats why.

        Some fans in this thread say Pacqiauos wins compared to Floyds are better because of the KO, but then say Pacqiauos win was better than Shanes win because he beat him for 12 rounds straight, Which one is it? I mean, wheres the consistency?

          mosley is a monster puncher and he was teeing off on Margarito putting full force behind his shots

          pacquiao is the much smaller man and was peppering him with alot of punches

          he actually rocked Margarito with a right hook late and he hurt him to the body plenty of times

          plus i think tony's mind wasn't on the job against Mosley thats why he was knocked out so badly

          what pacquiao did to him was just as impressive if not more

              Yes, what Pacquiao did to Margarito was Sweet Science at it`s best, which is hard to do by a smaller fighter. It was simply awsome.

                sweet science is better than brutal knockout?

                    So by that logic, Floyd's win over Hatton was more impressive right?

                    To answer the OP:

                    Shane is a lot bigger than Pac.
                    Marg was weight drained vs Shane
                    Marg got caught with the plaster before the fight so his mind wasn't fully on the job.
                    Shane hits harder than Pac.

                    I don't necessarily agree with all of those but they are the excuses you'll hear.

                      Perhaps because the Mosley camp didn't go very well for Margarito. Thats the excuse Capetillo used to explain why he "panicked" and went for the "training gauze".
