I'm assuming the reason for Pac fighting Mosley is Floyd?

    Come Floyd Mayweather,destroys Mosley and now Pacquiao knows Mosley isnt the same fighter after that destruction.This is just careful match making just like fighting DelaHoya because he 'couldnt pull the trigger' or Hatton because 'he's finished',or Margarito because he has no defence.

    These guys have no intention of fighting Mayweather.They got the chance and left to sign Clottey,what was that all about?
    u must be dumb enough to believe all that crap!! its a marketing thing! if roach tells u to go jump off a bridge are u gonna listen to him too? how did floyd destroyed mosley to make him a different fighter now? like mosley isnt already done when he fought floyd.

      I've agreed it's match-making. Not only once, but twice.

      And like I've said, Arum isn't trying to convince people on BS. The people that bought and turned up for Pac-Clottey, you think they're clued up on all of Roach's sayings about Mosley? Hence it will sell and the comparisons will be made.

        Pac fighting Mosley is because that makes the most money for him...

          It does make money sense no doubt, but it doesn't make sense in any other way.

          Mosley was past his best when he fought Floyd but was coming off a very good win over Margarito. In this case, Mosley's coming off a wide decision loss to Mayweather and a dull fight with Sergio Mora (although arguably he won it).

          And lets be fair, if it is all about money like a few of you are saying, surely there's more money in fighting JMM for a third time. Mexicans would buy it, Americans would buy it, it would sell out any stadium and if it were PPV in Britain I'd buy it for sure.

          I'm not a Pacquiao hater but his promoters are giving him easier options with similar paydays. Marquez makes sense in every single way possible, Mosley doesn't.
