chop chop picks shane by KO

@ both of you.
chop chop is in for a big surprise if he really thinks this...shane isn't the same shane everyone thinks he is, he's past his best days...everyone will see saturday

He's pretty old but he's a southpaw with decent handspeed who gave Maidana a tough fight, well so did shot Morales. Two considerably past it fighters giving Maidana trouble says more about Maidana than the two fighters.

I think Judah would have been a better southpaw because he's faster than Corley. But we'll see.

i agree but what's the likelihood of zab agreeing to be shane's sparring partner? or being anyone's sparring partner for that matter.

i respect your opinion but I am of the opinion that pac is everything that people say he is...I like to see him fight but he isn't "elite"...I mean he is hot right now but he aint gifted...just my opinion

I can agree with you. Only reason I think pacquiao is going to beat mosley is because he is catching him at the right time. Mosley hasn't looked good since the margs fight, so it's easier to picture pac taking this fight. mosley pulling an upset would be crazy, and make it interesting for boxing, but I don't see it happening due to mosley's age, not pacquiao's skills, you know what I mean? I would've betted on mosley if he fought pacquiao when cotto/pacquiao happened, that would've been a better fight. But respect to you for being a true fan of SSM and sticking by him.

oh and I was laughing at you and throwedessay with the first comments of the thread, i had this tab open for a while, didn't realize til later many commented on it, my bad if you thought i was laughing at your opinion

I believe he sparred with Mayweather as recently as 2009-2010. Judah is a different person now, he's not the hot head he use to be. If Shane asked him to be his sparring partner, Judah would have probably said yes. I bet you Shane never even asked him.

I hope Corley is right but Corley saying Mosley will win by KO is just common courtesy from your sparring partner. They are not gonna say you looked bad in sparring and that you're gonna get knocked out. Look at all of Pacquiao's sparring partners, they're forever saying Pac will KO his opponent in x amount of rounds and those predictions have been way off recently. We heard Clottey was gonna get stopped, we heard Margarito was gonna get stopped, we heard Cotto was gonna get stopped in the 3rd round, none of that happened, it's just sparring partners talking good about you cause that's what they're supposed to do. Last good prediction was Roach predicting a 2nd round KO of Hatton and after that, people ran with whatever Roach predicted.

has mosley really fallen off that much in a year and a half or was the margarito fight just a good style match up for him? old fighters always do better against naturally slow fighters who come forward because they still have fast enough reflexes to get off and their target is right in front of them. look at mosley-margarito, morales-maidana, roy jones-lacy. when they fight boxer types with faster reflexes they are unable to get off as much because their reflexes have slowed.

margs/mosley, neither of them were slow or shot, margs's mind might've been elsewhere due to the wraps they found before the fight, but margs was still good. i know what you mean though, i just think mosley would've put up a better fight in 09. getting a lopsided loss to mayweather, going to a draw with mora, you don't think that's gotten into mosley's head? let alone the fact he is a huge underdog? plus, there's signs in those two fights where mosley just isn't the same, reflexes, stamina, hunger. then there's other people who think pac/mosley will be competitive because they both come forward. i just think mosley really hasn't got it anymore, perfect time for pacquiao to whoop him. if it was two years ago, right after the hatton KO, you don't think this fight or mosley's chances would've been better?

Sorry Corey but Shane is getting demolished Oscar style.
I give Shane 1% chance but it will be a great fight to watch.

[Maidana vs Rios]

chop chop nailed it
