    This fight wouldn't be so bad if there wasn't the sergio mora draw.

    I'd rather seen Berto vs Mosely, then the winner fight pac.

    Which if Berto won, a win over Mosely would have possibly given him enough exposure to sell some tickets so manny wouldn't have to carry the whole fight.

    Seems the storyline in this one will be, "Can Manny be the first to KO Mosely" last time we had that storyline in a Mosely fight it was "Can Margaritto KO mosely"

    No one knows what will happen for sure,
    but I'm guessing Manny UD taking 10 out of 12 rounds.

      he should have.

      manny could have proved a lot more fighting berto, and berto was there for the fight.
      berto will come soon enough..then people will complain bout that..watch

          I think it might have something to do with the fact the fight was declined when Shane looked impressive and was accepted when he looks like utter ****.

              this is floyd all over again.

              jmm should not be fighting over 135, yet you know manny vs jmm is gonna be at 147.

              140 at absolute highest.

                Lost to Cotto
                Beat Mayorga
                Beat Margarito
                Lost to Mayweather
                Draw to Mora
                Not a bum but he has seen better days. Last time he looked good vs someone was Margarito.

                  It was the obvious choice financially if you look at how greedy Arum is. People put more focus on how shot he is and that's why the fight was made, but it wouldn't have been made at all if he hadn't left Golden Boy and become a free agent. The same is happening to Marquez right now who some people still say Manny is ducking, even at 147... I don't know if a Berto fight is possible with his 'awesome' popularity and overpaid salary. Manny's at the last leg of his career and it's mostly high career paydays from here.

                    he had a 15 month layoff before floyd.
                    The Cotto fight was pretty close and Pac already fought Cotto, Berto is not a better fight than SSM......it is actually the best option for him now.

                      of course they will, but it would at least be against a young undefeated titlist and could shut up the whole "never fought an african american slick fighter thing".

                      plus there's money there. shane DOES NOT sell PPV's. manny sells the ppv's.
