Comments Thread For: Reasons Why Mosley Should Get The Pacquiao Showdown

[SluggerFan]

team pac wanted nothing to do with mosley after he KO'd marg but after he gets his ass whooped by floyd then looks like shit against mora all of a sudden he's in line for a shot at pac. and on top of that he's not even a big draw. try again son

Not a big draw. It takes two to tango boy! Pac fighting a nobody (Clottey) does 700k PPVs. The fight with Marg did anywhere between 1.2 and 1.4mil. A fight with Mosley will do the same, probably 1.2 to 1.4m. Who else other than Floyd Jr can he do 1.4m against? Nobody! Everything you stated may be true to an extent however it has nothing to do with my question, dumb a$$...

Why is everyone dead-set against this? I know Mosley has slipped, but he is still reasonably effective at 147. He has power and speed. A good chin etc. I wouldn't read too much into his fight with Mora. Shane never looked any good at 154 and always struggles with "boxers"

Pac will trade at some point and that's when Shane is effective. He likes to trade. He likes a dog-fight. He wants to go toe to toe and match his speed and power against yours.

We all know mosley is old and past prime, but why didnt he get the same treatment while fighting Floyd. Just in fairness people should also say floyd beat a past prime mosley.

Mosley has too much money already, he had fought most of the cash cows out there, why does he need more money, let other people take a chance

cause he was coming off an impressive KO of marg and was the #1 welter at time

No it won't. I'd bet real money that SSM vs Pac wouldn't even hit one million PPV buys. Shane is a recognisable name, but he's not a huge draw. Not on Margarito's level. That fight was in Texas, in a stadium and had the Mex revenge factor going for it. I predicted that it would do good buys 1.4 or over when everyone else on here was saying no way.

Sometimes you can't reason with idiots like Shadowboxer. I've given up, he has no answer to my question. And when you think of it, if Pacquiao fights Berto, he destroys him. If he fights Bradley, he wins easily because Bradley will not be able to hurt him. But if he fights Mosley, we all know Mosley can punch because he rocked Floyd Jr. Mosley would only have a punchers chance but it's more of a chance than Bradley or Berto would have (and I like Bradley, just think he is too small and doesn't punch hard enough)....

I love how you bend everything in your favor the way you want. I am done with you. Too narrow minded to see the big picture. You can now get back on Floyds d*ck....

i think Berto does ok. He is explosive and his signature punch (the uppercut) is one that lands with regularity on Pac. He can sldo throw explosive right hands. Berto is a good matchup.

So all of a sudden ko'ing margarito makes him back on his prime, after losing to Cotto by UD.

I just want someone to admit Mosley was past prime before Cotto and before Wright. He got a lucky break from Margarito. But overall he is still past prime.

Dont you see the double standards here. Hes either past prime or not.
