Comments Thread For: Merchant: Mosley The Most Dangerous Choice For Pacquiao

[Pullcounter]

Weight is just an excuse for Manny and Arum Manny walked in on fight night 146 for the Margarito fight and Marquez walked in at 145 for the Katsidis you act like PAC is a monster WW both will weigh the same if they fight Marquez doesn't have to go in at 147 Manny never does Arum and Roach just don't want to see him get his ass schooled by a 36 year old man they want to fight A shot Mosley to keep on making him look like he is monster Manny is a joke!!!!

jmm gets murked at 147 lbs. I don't even think jmm can beat anyone in the top 5 of the WW division. I'm not even sure jmm can beat the guy that bradley beat at 147 lbs.

you do know that larry is the OG ******* right?

larry put pac on his top 10 p4p list back in 2001 , 2 years BEFORE pac even fought barrera.

larry fell in love with pac after the ledwaba fight on the delahoya-castillejo undercard.

that's why after that fight , pac became an hbo fighter.

sanchez , barrera , marquez..... all were hbo fights. pac was also hbo's choice to showcase in the hbo/showtime co-promotion for lewis-tyson.

Ledwaba, yet another second rate beltholder Pac beat and then got the **** outta dodge before fighting the best of the division. Ayala was the recognized 122 champ. Larios was a better beltholder. He didn't fight either of them. Yet, he's a legit 8 division champ.

About 90% of fighters and trainers think Pac would get merked by Mayweather. So according to your Pacwh*re logic, there's no need for Money to fight Pac.

What did manny do at junior middle before he won that title? For that matter what did margarito do? So I get it, Manny's cool when he steps up, but marquez needs to prove it...................

I could say about manny what you said about berto.........except it would be weight drained losers

1) that 154 lbs belt pac and marg fought for is garbage.

2) jmm needs to prove himself at 147 lbs. if you don't believe this you're an idiot and want a deathwish for jmm.

3) pac pretty much cleaned out 147 with the exception of wifebeater who is a coward and berto. i have no doubt that pac/berto will happen in the near future. the best fighter berto has fought is collazo who berto went life and death with. come the **** on!!!

[borgata]

and the HBO spin machine starts. didnt merchant just say something about manny killing shane?

i thought the same thing, but it was ledderman who said that not asS whipe merchant..... either way take what merchant said pre/post mayweather mosley fight and compare it to what hes saying now, somebody please fire this man!

Has beens yes,

I never said anything about JMM AT WW.

I have said that Pac vs JMM III should be at JWW. Pac who hasnt ever weiged above 147 (WW LIMIT) can still make the JWW limit as he just weighed 144 for his JMW vacantly handed (plaster free) title.

If he doesn't want to fight at JWW, fine I have no problem. Then fight the younger undefeated WBC WW Champion in Berto (a fighter Floyd didn't just embarrass). Pac IMO beats JMM AT 140 (let alone 147), Berto AT WW and Mosley AT WW. Its about making the best matchups and Pac vs JMM III AT JWW IMO would be a GREAT fight. So much hype and it would sell more than the other two (May 7th c'mon). Berto AT 147 would be a great fight as its something we haven't seen Pac do in a long time, fight an undefeated CHAMPION without any "catchweights" any BS... just WW Champion vs WW Champion to unify titles.

It's a start when attempting to "clean out" the WW division. Nobody can justify Pac fighting Mosley now, especially when some "fans" that hate Floyd so badly they attempted to degrade and bash Floyd for fighting the then #1 WW Champion in Mosley. YET promote this garbage? Blows my mind.

Again Pac beats all the names Arum "selected" for Pac. I just want to see the best match ups as a fan of the sport.

1) JMM must prove he can carry the weight above 135 lbs period. that means he must dominate an elite 140 lbers or convincingly beat a top 10 WW. failure to do so means the fight isn't happening.

2) I'm not justifying the mosley fight. I think it sux. mosley also should prove he's not shot by fighting berto.

I agree with everything that you've been saying.

But at least Berto is young. I don't particularly want to see JMM III either. It would probably end up like Vazquez-Marquez IV, a clear mismatch that almost kills the other man

[WESS]

I agree.

I think Shane is dangerous because he can punch and has speed, plus he doesnt mind exchanging and will look for the KO.
I dont think SSM is just any fighter throwing punches. But i agree Berto is just as dangerous, as he is fast and hits hard.

If Marg could hurt Pac, i think Shane could. Not sure if he can sustain the pressure, but his speed is a big factor.


I think he is better than Marg, just as tough, and better boxer. So it could be interesting.

Shane has lost a lot of his speed. He still even at almost being 40 might be the fastest fighter Pac has faced in a while but he will tire and Pac's movement will give him MANY problems. Mosley can still hurt Pac but wont have the kind of pressure Margarito had. Pac leaves himself open a lot and Mosley might benefit from this, but for how long? Pac by round 4 will dominate Shane with his in and out movement and non stop punching...

[Pullcounter]

If JMM is so garbage above ligthweight, why not just kick his ass and get him outta the way? Especially considering that the media would suck about a mile of Pacdong if if he did drill JMM and they're lambasting him for fightign Mosley.

you're dumb. you can use the same argument for mosley: if mosley is so garbage at WW, why not just kick his ass and get him outta the way?

the truth is, neither jmm nor mosley are good fights for pac. the only viable and good fight for pac is wifebeater, but wifebeater is too much of a coward to fight pac.

berto is better than both jmm or mosley, but he can't sell flies to *****.

Yea. I still think its a step up from Marg.

Id love to see Pac fight JMM who is so different from other WW's, and who gave him real problems before.
