Comments Thread For: Pacquiao's Adviser: Manny is Knocking Shane Mosley Out!

[Cash Cow]

No they weren't.. The only one coming off a lose was Clottey. But Clottey/Cotto was a close fight..

i mean if you consider those BS warm up fights that Hatton, Cotto and Margarito had REAL fights...then OK....

First Mayweather made Hatton come up to 147 where Hatton had only fought once and barely got by a **** Collazo. Pac destroyed Hatton at his true weight of 140. Mayweather was scared to fight both Cotto and Margs and retired when he could have had huge fights with both guys. Mayweather is a very very skilled fighter but he is a huge ***** and is definitely one of the most boring boxers of all time. I love boxing but I can't watch Floyd fight. I don't want to see Pac fight Mosley because Mosley is a washed up bum who got destroyed by Floyd and then couldn't beat Mora. PAC MOSLEY IS A TERRIBLE FIGHT, HE SHOULD FIGHT MARQUEZ AT 140 OR MAN UP AND FIGHT MARTINEZ AT 154/6. ARUM IS A ****SUCKER WHO NEEDS TO DIE IF HE THINKS A FIGHT LIKE THIS IS GOING TO HELP BOXING.

I completely agree with you. Even if he fought Berto, at least Berto is a natural 147 lber and unbeaten. The one thing about JMM is I think if Arum said it has to be at 147 lbs, JMM would take the fight for two reasons. A) JMM can weigh 140.1 and make the limit and B) He knows Manny won't weigh more than 144 especially against a fighter as fast as JMM. If Manny were to come in at 147, that would be to his detriment and slow him down. I believe if Manny fights JMM, it will be 147 lb limit and Manny won't weigh more than 142 or 143 lbs max. But whatever happens, it shouldn't be Mosley. Mosley should have a rematch with Cotto and if either of them looks good in winning, them maybe they would have a case for a big fight (and not necessarily a Pacquaio fight but another big fight none-the-less).

Yes but they were losing against each other.. That what happens when you fight a top WW against another elite WW.. They were not exactly losing against any other fighters...Marg, Cotto, Clottey, and even Mosley..And Cotto's fight against Clottey is not a tune up...

Fair enough, but you could see from the Forbes fight that DLH was done. Roach himself said that he could see that Oscar could "no longer pull the trigger and that the time was right for my guy to fight him"

Also, the Cotto that fought Pac had already been smashed by Margarito. His confidence had been destroyed and you could see it in his eyes as soon as Pac got him in trouble he was reliving the Margarito nightmare

Hatton had already been kayoed by Mayweather. He also fought a remarkably ****** fight by bullrushing Pac and Pac took care of business.

Don't get me wrong. I think Pac is a helluva fighter. I just think that he is benifitting from timely matchmaking and is beatable.

I just don't understand the rationale that because Pac is more exciting it somehow makes him better.

The lineal JWW champ was coming off a warm against top 10 JWW who was also a title holder(granted he got stripped from that title but still didn't lose it in the ring)?

Is this shit fight set already or something. Fuck I hope Mosley Ko's him so it backfires on Arum and Roach, and the rest of the cherry picking crew behind Manny.

[PrinceCharlez]

Floyd was teeing off on Mosley's chin all night, and yet he barely cracked Mosley... Pac will do it while getting hit himself...That's the difference.. And that's the excitement...

Who's going to be hitting him? Never seen a punching bag hit back...

DLH cherrypicked Pac not the other way around..

Cotto was KO'd but he was able to bounce back even after the Pac fight.. As evidence that he is now a contender to Martinez and has beaten Foreman. And also as evidence in the Clottey fight.

Hatton had an impressive win after the May fight at 140.. That was a 50/50 going in

JMM is getting way too much credit for that Katsidis win by the way..
