    I don't like pacquiao vs mosley....

    I don't like pacquiao vs mosley, but if the fight does happen, how do you think the fight will go?

    I think the fight can go 1 of 2 ways...

    scenario #1:

    I think the first 4-5 rounds will be a slug fest with a possibility for both guys to get hurt. It will be a pretty exciting fight in these rounds as mosley can match pac with speed and power and toughness.

    however, past round 4-5, mosley will gas and start holding alot. he'll still be dangerous, but pac will start beating the ***** outta mosley and ****m might stop the fight around the 8-10 round.

    scenario #2:

    It's possible that Roach's gameplan will be to avoiding ****ing it out with mosley early, instead focusing on being elusive and boxing mosley. As we all know, mosley has trouble with boxers and guys with good foot movment. finally when mosley has gased in the middle rounds, roach will tell pac to step on the accelerator and force ****m to stop the fight around the 9-12 rounds.

    whether scenario #1 or #2 happens, ****m will want mosley to box rather than brawl. when pac gets over aggressive he leaves himself open, so mosley will be trained to try and counterpunch pac.

    mosley will do a lot of holding to slow the fight down. he won't want to fight at pac's pace.

    mosley will be the biggest puncher pac has faced, only cotto can possibly compare in terms of power and cotto made pac's face look like pac was in a car accident.

    you have to admit mosley was coming off a long layoff for wifebeater (that is not to say wifebeater wouldn't have beat mosley anyways), and the mora fight was a stinnker because mosley's effectiveness above 154 drops off significantly and mora didn't want to fight.

    having said that, I did say that if mosley couldn't stop or beat mora convincingly, that he should retire. I still believe that and honestly I'm against a pac/mosley fight unless mosley can beat berto or the winner of bradley/alexander.

    It will be an easy fight, I don't see any validity to any of your concerns. Mosley's still old and shot and has cement feet.

    There's nothing he can do with Pac other than to get his ass beaten into retirement.

    He lost to Mora by a wide margin on my card.

      Coming from a Pacquiao fan, I think it's a junk fight, on par with the Clottey fight or worse.

      If not Floyd, then winner of Bradley/Alexander. If not that winner, then Berto. If not Berto, then call it a career.

        I like both fighters and a few years ago I would have been super-excited, after Shane's last two fights, I can't see it going well for him. The payday would be nice but I see little point in this fight.

          This is indeed a soft fight. I hope it doesn't happen.

            Easy win for Pacquiao. Mosley will take a beating for 12 rounds. I hope the Payday is worth it Shane.

              This fight would have been great 2 or 3 years ago. apart from Mayweather Moseley is the only guy that I can see that can cause manny problems. this is a better match than the Margarito one IMO. I would like to see shane get one more big payday.

                not while mosley is fresh

                , I don't see any validity to any of your concerns. Mosley's still old and shot and has cement feet.
                true, but mosley is still dangerous in the early rounds as seen when mosley almost KOed wifebeater

                There's nothing he can do with Pac other than to get his ass beaten into retirement.
                he might catch pac early with a big shot. not to mention, mosley is a great body puncher.

                  If Pac can fight Marg (who is taller and 17 pounds more heavier) then Pac for sure can whip Mosley's ass. Sure Mosley whoop Marg's ass, but Marg had to lose a lot of pounds in a short amount of time before the Mosley fight. That and that was a long time ago, Mosley is an old man now.

                    it won't be easy as long as mosley hasn't gassed. I expect a stoppage. ****m won't garcia it.
