Its a money fight and Pacquiao is in a no-win situation, just like the Margarito fight, it's a **** fight. Shane is done, has been for a long time, even before the Margarito fight it's just that Margarito was tailor made for Shane's slug and hug style. Pacman beats him easily, easy work.
If Pac Struggles With Mosley....

Mosley hasn't looked good in two years and suffered a pretty one-sided loss in that interim. This fight is all about the check for him. He's not beating no Manny Pacquiao and he'll be lucky if he wins more than two rounds. I do believe Manny will stop him early. Just a hunch.
i dont know about early...unless PAC comes in with ZERO respect, which i think will be the opposite, the feel-out stage should afford Shane at least 3-4 rounds...but the 4th or 5th, the handspeed advantage will become defined and that's when we'll probably see PAC go for the kill
or not
i didnt like what i saw in the Margarito fight...towards the end...too much compassionComment

That would be a most fun scenario, I like Pac but poetic justice for cherrypicking is deserved.I hope Sugar beats his a$$.This fight is not on Mosley,who says no to a cashcow.I just know this was some serious cherrypicking & I hope they get a monkey wrench thrown into some gears over this.That said Manny is gonna beat the brakes off of Mosley,or at least he should.Comment

I think it's Mosley who will make the same mistake most Pac opponents do, come forward thinking they can handle whatever he dishes out. And Mosley's going to walk into a huge left and down he goes. He'll get up. Couple more lefts, maybe a round or two later, ref steps in. He's going to get murdered. We agree though - I say within 6 rounds.i dont know about early...unless PAC comes in with ZERO respect, which i think will be the opposite, the feel-out stage should afford Shane at least 3-4 rounds...but the 4th or 5th, the handspeed advantage will become defined and that's when we'll probably see PAC go for the kill

And damn, you didn't like that Manny had compassion on Margarito at the end? Man, you didn't see what he did to him the first 10 rounds???

for real, PAC should have forced the ref's hand in that one...IMO, he could have forced his hand by the 8th or 9th round...although the beating from rounds 9-12 was 'watered down', it was still a beating...could have been avoidedComment

I agree that he was too nice even before the final rounds. I think margarito's broken orbital and that wound flapping in the air every time pac hit it really made him not want to punch him anymore.i dont know about early...unless PAC comes in with ZERO respect, which i think will be the opposite, the feel-out stage should afford Shane at least 3-4 rounds...but the 4th or 5th, the handspeed advantage will become defined and that's when we'll probably see PAC go for the kill

IF pac did decide to not really punch that hard upstairs, would've been been nice to see him work on margarito's body.Comment

You know what though, I feel like Manny did kinda force the ref's hand (and Margarito's corner). But those dudes must ****in hate Tony or something cuz they kept sending him out for more. That fight could've been stopped from round eight going.Comment
