Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao-Shane Mosley ‘Done Deal’ For May 7

[Rome-By-Ko]

Dude you know this too, they'll be haters regardless. But to boxing experts and fans who will follow boxing after Pac (not Manny fanboys or haters) Pac gets credit for beating Berto, PERIOD! He would also get credit for fighting JMM unfortunately won't happen at 140lbs so that one is out of the picture. If you unify a division, you take away any question marks. Plain and simple, no one can hate or discredit Pac if he unifies the WW division. So there are options. and if he doesn't want to then he either retires, tells his whole team to STFU and goes after the money OR face a respectable opponent and still make bank. If not he'll be disgracing the sport with all the rubbish talk. But like i said i call it how i see it people may not see things the way i see it but the fights are there. Timmy Bradley (i like what he's doing so far)/Alexander winner respectable, Martinez (lived in that JMW for years) respectable, one of the JMW champs if he chooses to go that route respectable, Cotto would have been respectable were it not for the dumb catchweight, any champ at 147lbs i say is respectable (only if he wants to unify the division). My opinion like i said there will always be hater.

Shane does not hold a belt to the best of my knowledge correct me if im wrong so there is no belt to get from shane. Berto hasn't fought the better guys we agree to that. He is however at the point where he will and wants to. Were it not for the unfortunate Haiti earthquake the fight would have happened with Mosley earlier and we would have has some questions answered. idk wtf happened after that, Berto wanted 50/50 and it was cuz he got greedy and big headed. DUMB move i agree

For me i don't blame him for wanting to fight Pac the best guy out there and i am for it BECAUSE the WW divison is not stacked and Berto is one of the few guys left who in many boxing experts and fans eyes is a legit guy and holds a belt. Not only cuz he holds a belt is he legit to me but he has some intangibles we have not seen Pac in against. But he won't fight Pac now and that's done with it's unfortunate. I agree that now since he can't get that fight with Pac he should shut that baby cry Cintron up. As for the Collazo fight, it wasn't a robbery. it could have gone either way and i think SHOULD HAVE been a DRAW but were Collazo to have won i can't dispute that cuz it was close. BUT Berto fought a ****** fight and could have made the fight so much easier for himself. He was not outclassed he just was DUMB in the ring. He got into trouble and out worked when he stayed inside and fought inside. Collazo shoe shined and mixed in some solid blows. Now on the outside Berto was controlling the fight he stuck behind his speed and he boxed. His trainer Morgan told him to "box" but he didn't. So i know what i saw in the ring against Collazo he did not get outclassed. Should have been a draw.

This was/is a really good post and it was a close fight so you are right it was not a robbery..Not to much to say about this post it was good oh and I totally agree about the Bradley alexander winner he should fight umm..Im still all in for a Mosley fight,Mosley is a name a HOF and that at times is a lil better then a belt...

i'd ROFL if pacquiao got KTFO in this fight

[Rome-By-Ko]

and let me ask you no bias no BS. just honest thoughts then of Manny's wins for the light weight title (Diaz), light welterweight title (Hatton), WW title (Cotto), and JMW title (Margarito). the guys he beat for these titles and the circumstances behind them according to you it DOES matter who you win the title from and defend it against. so i'm curious what you got to say about the the guys and circumstances he won the titles from

I will answer this with no bias Pac is not one of my favorite fighters at The moment but like May I respect the hell out of umm..

Diaz/This fight was B.S. imo he should have fought Casamayor..

Hatton/A legit win Hatton was the Champ and this was/is Hattons best weight..

Cotto/Also was a legit fight imo..The weight had nothing to do with the outcome of the fight..

Margarito/This was the worst nuff said..He should have been fought Mosley imo,I still want to see it tho its a good chance it might be good..Styles make fights NO??That's my veiw on those fights..

[Uturn]

Shane will get knocked out for the first time ever in his career.

But don't worry, I'll be more than prepared for a brutal ending to his career.

R.I.P Mosley.

**** Manny and Bob Arum!!! What a disgrace to the sport of Boxing!!!

[-EAGLE-]

lmao! ****** fight

There is only like one or 2 guys that Pac can fight that will really help his resume at this point besides Floyd. Mosley is a good name and if you hate Pac for facing him, then you also have to hate Floyd too. It'll do good numbers, despite the fact that many people don't want it to. Probably 1.2-1.4 million buys.

I feel bad for Mosley because I honestly feel that he will quit in there against Pac. I hate to see that happen to him but he is going to get punished badly. Mosley will retire after this loss for sure because it will be a brutal, one-sided beatdown.

How the *** can u hate Floyd for fighting Mosley?! Where have u been? The media and fans were on Mosley's bandwagon saying that Floyd is ducking him. Floyd told us before the fight that Mosley is washed up with five losses, but nobody listened, they all say he was being disrespectful and ducking Mosley. Freddie Roach and Arum are on record saying that Floyd should fight Mosley instead, because they don't think Manny is ready and that Floyd is ducking Mosley.

It's funny how when it comes to a certain fighter you guys have seem to have convenient memory loss.

[WESS]

Arum's plan all along...

Nobody should be surprised as no matter what, Mosley was selected way ahead of time.

Regardless of how many fighters deserved the fight. No matter if Floyd was around, no matter if Berto didn't look so good in his last fight, no matter if JMM "priced himself out" for asking 5 million (same amount Mosley's getting?).

No matter what, Arum had Mosley selected well a head just like he did Clottey. Yet again said Floyd was scared (again), JMM "politely"
didn't want to fight, Martinez is "too big", Berto is not known etc etc etc....

These are the excuses for Pac to hand select certain fighters AT certain weight classes AT certain weights... yet its Floyd's fault...lol Yea I blame him because Arum doesn't like to deal with him so its all his fault. Yes that makes sense. Just like fighting Mosley makes perfect sense. We know who the real coward is now folks..... Its been exposed and Floyd has nothing to do with it because remember "all roads do not lead to Mayweather"... remember?

Pac is hand selecting certain fighters AT certain weight classes AT certain weights. After Pac "selecting" to fight Mosley, i'm pretty sure he will never step in the ring with Floyd if he wont even step in the ring with JMM, the undefeated WBC WW Champion in Berto, let a alone a real JMW who wants his title back.... Mayweather is too much of a threat as are the names I just listed. Sad part is, Pac could beat JMM AT 140 or 147 and Berto AT 147 yet he wont even prove it. He takes another easy subpar hand selected fighter who hasn't won a fight in 2 years with his 40th birthday right around the corner. Shameful. But yea, I blame Floyd Mayweather......

Everybody knows Arum's agenda now and Floyd was never on it. Let alone any top threats from 140 to 154. Rematch of Cotto at 154 will follow this. Arum's already hinted it. Just as he did with Mosley. Dont act surprised about that either......
