Comments Thread For: Mosley Focused on "Landing A lot" of Shots in Every Round

[BillyBoxing]

mosley will get his rib cage busted to ****.

At all...
Don't expect Mosley to be a walkin zombie like Margo or Diaz.

The difference betwen a Margo and a Mosley is, Mosley is a fast puncher and has a good timing...
Both are strong brawlers, but Margo get beat because Mosley has timing and good speed...
And Margo did hurt Manny bad, Clottey busted up his face, on the other hand, Mosley put on ***** street a defensive wizzard like Mayweater who never has a scratch on his face after his fights.

I mean Pacquiao is in danger in this fight, I don't know what Roach is smoking...They are taking unnecessary risks.

Mosley will work with Naz the right punch to hit Pacquiao and Mosley will land more than once clean punches...
Mosley's timing is underrated, and I'm convinced timing is what beat Manny...

This fight will be competitive until the stoppage.

Im rooting for mosley. A well conditioned mosley has a true shot.

Pacman is not Margarito...

...Sugar will have to stop thinking about the Margarito win if he wants to win Saturday. Marg and Pac are two different monsters, Marg is Bear and Pac is Bee.
Instead of thinking slowing down Pac , think about how to catch the bee. Pac learned something about the Marg fight, I doubt Pac would want to get hit again. specially not by Shane. I pick Sugar to win if he can keep up with Pac.

I see a lot of people underrating Shane and overrating Pacquiao in this thread.

I think Pacquiao is gonna win, simply because Shane is not who he use to be, and i'm going by his last two fights.

But to say things like, "for every punch Mosley throws, Pacquiao will throw 3" syke! Shane is still fast as hell, that's the key for him to land on Pacquiao. A lot of you talk like Pacquiao some kind of master counterpuncher all of a sudden. He's not a counterpuncher, he's an all out offensive fighter who does not have any defense, as we see the average punches landed on him recently is 30%[27% to be exact] and that is a high amount of punches landed on him per fight. I am pretty sure Shane can double that or at least land 10% higher than the average landed on Pacquiao.

Question is, with Pacquiao's newfound iron chin, and ability to take monstrous punches from bigger[but B class] fighters, can Shane, the most powerful, but oldest, welterweight even faze this new chin of Manny Pacquiao? He WILL land on Pacquiao, but will it faze Pac. Will Pac's recovery and chin win him this fight? Because to be honest, Mosley is more powerful and I am pretty sure he's not that much slower than Pacquiao, handspeed-wise. So it's gonna be Pacquiao's workrate, chin, and stamina to win him this fight, not speed or power, or the laughable "counterpunching" that I keep reading about.

Shane has a better chance in Chess than boxing.. Unless he Accuse Manny and run away and make some criminal records to avoid Pacquiao.

Sounds good but........

It sounds like a good plan but MOSLEY isn't LEONARD or ROBINSON. He's a power dummy who will get T.K.O.'ed at some point during the fight. When have you ever seen MOSLEY throw an effective jab? Or a beautiful right hand? He has no jab and he loops his right hand. There is nothing straight about it. Truth is, MOSLEY has always been over-rated in my opinion. The only reason he beat Oscar the first fight is because OSCAR had been cheated against TRINIDAD and promised to stand toe-to-toe with him. In the rematch, I think we saw who the better fighter was. Yes? WINKY WRIGHT twice, FORREST twice. MAYWEATHER. MANNY is a smart fighter and power alone won't defeat him. After he beats MOSLEY up, he wants MARQUEZ. He will retire him as well.

From what I've seen of Shane...other than the Mayweather fight, he's not afraid to throw. He has pretty good speed, but loads up too much telegraphing his power punches. Against a slick boxer like Floyd, he missed a lot. Many I don't think is as good defensively, but may have a better chin than Floyd.

Just as Manny has an unorthodox style that makes his unpredictability his greatest offensive weapon...Shane needs to swing when he's not comfortable instead of waiting for a stationary target. Also, throwing lots of hooks to the head would do him well.

It's going to be a fascinating fight because anything can happen. But in all liklihood, Manny will probably come out victorious. I suspect that Shane will get battered and may even go down. He may not even finish the fight. I think it could end up a la DLH or Cotto. A demoralizing defeat where the fighter ends on his feet, but with his heart knocked out.

I expect Shane to come out looking good early in the 1st 3 rds, but fade and lose confidence as he realizes the few shots he lands are not enough to swing the fight in his favor over the course of the fight. Not sure if I really see a knockout, but possibly a TKO like in the DLH fight.

Yeah, Shane has not looked good in his last few fights as everyone keeps reminding us but this is one of those fights where you can really apply the old adage of "Styles makes fights".

Neither guy is going to want to back down and it's not going to be difficult to find each other. I'm glad Cortez isn't the ref. Bayless will let them fight. I'm expecting it to be Manny's toughest fight in a looong time
