That is exactly why Shane can't win the fight though, if he had a good job he could (possibly) employ an effective big man strategy and use the jab and straight right to catch Manny every time when Manny is just outside of his range.
Since his jab is piss poor though I think Manny will get to him before he can get 7 rounds in the bank.
Shane should be able to make it interesting though, I have to wonder what people will say if Shane actually gives him a tough fight (if they will deal in reality).Comment

Cotto and Margarito both tried to use the 'big man strategy' and jab Pac, but Pac timed them after a round or 2 and countered them and kept them off balance by constantly turning them. The jab against Manny is only good for 1-2 rounds before it becomes a liability.That is exactly why Shane can't win the fight though, if he had a good job he could (possibly) employ an effective big man strategy and use the jab and straight right to catch Manny every time when Manny is just outside of his range.

Shane not having a jab just means he will be blasted early and often and not win a single round before the fight is stopped.Comment

Cotto has never been the big man before so him not knowing how tyo do it is unsurprising. Cotto is an alright technical boxer but there are limits on what he can do and once pressured and forced to fight going backwards it is over with for him.Cotto and Margarito both tried to use the 'big man strategy' and jab Pac, but Pac timed them after a round or 2 and countered them and kept them off balance by constantly turning them.

Margarito never had much technical skill and never fought really as the big man.
Poor choices for examples when comparing them to Shane.
Shane not having a jabs means he will be that much easier for Manny to figure out, if he had a jab Manny arguably may never figure that out since it would involve him never getting into his range. If Manny can't get into his range he can't win, since Mosley doesn't have a good jab Manny should be able to work himself into range so he should win.Comment

I would say Cotto is more than just 'alright' technically and he has a top notch jab, just was rendered useless by Manny's speed, timing, head movement, and footwork. Just look at how effected a slick fighter like Foreman was by that stinging jab.
Margarito made Manny look like a toddler in the ring and he came out with a stiff jab early, then Manny figured him out and it was a landslide from there. Shane isn't a great technician at all, in fact Cotto is his superior in that department. Plus he has a strange jittery, flimsy shot he calls a jab but will serve him no purpose whatsoever against Pac.Margarito never had much technical skill and never fought really as the big man.

Shane will look like DLH in there and will be befuddled from the opening bell. Manny will jump on his, keep him turning all night and land at will. He will have absolutely no problem getting into range.Shane not having a jabs means he will be that much easier for Manny to figure out, if he had a jab Manny arguably may never figure that out since it would involve him never getting into his range.

Its normal for Pac to take "some" damage in fights that goes over 6 rounds, But he dishes out worst damages to his opponents and While Mosley would have his moments against Pac he too would find that age and years of fighting has caught up with him.Comment
