This is when you know you shouldn't be fighting someone: When EVERY SINGLE EXPERT expects you to win.

Hard to believe that no one picks a hall of famer who still has power in both hands and also hit very hard to the body and has never been stopped! I am picking Mosley, not to go against the grain but because I think he can win and we have seen tons of upsets lately!!

[WESS]

Pac wins by UD. Coach Richardson might throw the towel late if Mosley looks tired. He damn near seemed like he was going to vs Maweather. If Mosley can't catch Pac early he gets out worked

[LeadUppercut]

Yes but dont deny people the chance to see a underdog cause a massive upset!

People wish they could have seen Tyson get beat by Buster. Historical moments in history.

Fair point, just getting sick of Pac fighting old men who are massive underdog's.

Then after Pac demolished mosley, you're goin to say he beat an old and washed up fighter..

Ummm..... did you just have a brain-fart ?

Mosley IS old and washed up noddy, so Pac will get NO credit for beating him, and nor should he

If Pac wants " credit ", then why is he fighting old men, faded champions, and no-hoper's?

That is like demanding a catch-weight for a faded and vulnerable Cotto, and then expecting everyone to give you full credit for the win.

That is like ducking a random blood test, and then wondering why everyone is calling you a steroid cheat.

*** me, the Pac-circus continues.....

The experts picked Pac 16-0 huh? So pretty much everyone agree's that this fight is nothing more than a sparring session against yet another old faded champion.

* sigh *

Go Pac.

Well who else was Pac suppose to fight considering Floyds not thinking about boxing... I mean Shanes a big name and a legitimate Welterweight.. Atleast were not being fed Pac versus some P4P lightweight two divisions down south..

Mosely is old and washed up tonight and was old and washed up when Floyd fought him.. Not the best match up that fans want to see but when Floyd comes out of vacation again hopefully we can get the fight we all want..

[lutenco]

I think that what happened in OSCAR vs MANNY,the same thing will happen tonight;like NACHO didn't let OSCAR go out for another round of beating so RICHARDSON will do in the 6 or 7 or 8 round.....................!!!!

After watching Hopkins-Pascal and Maidana-Morales i truely think anything is possible in this fight.

After watching Hopkins-Jones 2 who would have thought Hopkins would put up the performance he did against Pascal or who thought Maidana-Morales would be so competitive?

I expect Pacquiao to win but at the same time i'm not sleeping on Mosley. He still has the speed and power to be a threat.
