    Well, just treat this fight as a tune-up fight then. We all know you gonna be watching come fight night.

    BTW, people also dissed the Margarito fight when it was announced but no one who paid PPV for it felt robbed afterwards, even if it did turn out to be a beating. We all know we're guaranteed excitement every Pac fight. Better than taking a vacation, I say.

      Roach doesn't even believe this himself. He knows Shane is past it he's even said so himself in other interviews. He says everything. One minute he says Manny will KO his next opponent easy then in the next sentence he turns around and says it could be a war. Typical Freddie "The Dope Coach" Roach

        Too bad the dope-coach Roach is gonna get his fourth-straight Trainer of the Year.

          No doubt about it. Pac is always exciting but that doesn't validate as being the BEST P4P fighter either.

          Fighting "good" or "too good" fighters will be exciting too, but we don't get those now do we?

          I like Pac but don't hold lower standards for him. Accepting Clottey, Margarito and now Mosley is just not acceptable. Especially if one's agenda is to discredit Mayweather... there is no logic to it and all you can do is say "its better than taking a vacation"... That still doesn't justify pac picking and choosing fighters at certain weight classes at certain weights... let alone somehow never fighting fighters coming off wins, or are undefeated or are at the top of there game. Its a trend that you can only counter or argue with opinions. Not to mention Arum just making it perfectly clear that fighting the best isn't what he's about. he doesn't care what anyone thinks. As long as it makes money.

          But yes exciting? Pac makes it exciting. I'm just ready for Mayweather, Martinez, Berto, JMM, Alexander, Bradley exciting. Not a 40 year old losing Mosley who's the fighter of 5 years ago followed by Cotto again. Its just disappointing as a fan of Pac, as a fan of the sport and a fan who tries to stick up for it when a dumb ass tries to call boxers p*ssyies compared to MMA guys (not implying that you do, but some of my friends do. Them bastards)

            Now thats the attitude. As a boxing fan one should be happy that Pac is even getting in the ring rather then taking layoffs and not caring about the fans.

            This isn't the first time fans were withheld from match ups that they deserved to see.

            You folks should just enjoy it rather then complain so damn much..

                I love Freddie but people wake up lol, he'll say this now and then 3 months later he'll say "I watched Mosley's last fight, I think Mannys going to knock him out late in the fight, it looks like it'll be an easy night"

                    Man, I like Mosley. One of my favorites but he wont last 12 rounds to win with Pac going and going and going and going..... It just wont happen. Team Pac waited to see him lose and not look "too good". Mosley will bring power but he won't have the legs or stamnia to capilize on Pac that will not just sit there.

                    Pac hits Mosley all night long to a 12 round UD, and some people call me a Pac hater? Nonsense. I like Mosley more than Pac but Pac takes him.

                    You know some people think Brother Naaz is good for Shane but his stamina has been giving him trouble since their hook up. Don't know whether it's Naaz or the roids he was on but the thing is he'll be able to re-roid for this fight cause Manny will be on his special serum.

                      In what kind of f'ed up reality would this be any kind of test for Manny? Easy option, let's not encourage this.
