    Mosley did the right thing by not engaging.......

    Lets face it....Mosley knew there was no way he was going to win that fight, even before the contracts were signed......

    He knew Manny was getting cherrypicked over the hill fighters and saw the opportunity to fight Manny by not staying with GBP........he saw the potential earnings of over 4 million dollars and couldnt resist......

    At the end of the day, Mosley is 39...and unlike Margarito.......he knew in his head that there is no fun in getting beat down and breaking orbital bones, just to "show the world Im a warrior"......the facts are that Margarito is struggling to overcome the boxing injuries sustained in the fight.......

    Simply put, boxers should put themselves first and care more about their health, as opposoed to this "Im a warriror, I fight to the end", while getting your face torn to pieces......Im happy that a 39 year old Mosley is able to recover quite quickly from the fight, take home millions and go home to a fine ass B!itch

    The ones who should be blamed for this fight is SOLELY Pacs team (Pac, Arum, Roach)...who tried to crap on Mosley after he lost to Mayweather, only to then fight him....

      At the age Mosley is....and considering how badly he performed in his last 2 matches....I can.....

      At the end of the day...everyone could see that Mosley cant pull the trigger anymore against May and Mora...so why fight him.....

          I dunno. I mean, if you engage with Pac, you're gonna get the kind of beat downs that Marg/Miguel got. And it's easy for us to say that he should have just gone for it, for the sake of the entertainment of the fight.

          But....ultimately, I do come down on the argument that Shane should have gone out on his shield. He got a nice payday and a fight which he didn't deserve at this point of his career, so...to spend the fight surviving....kinda sucks.

              I dont care that he's 39

              He can still throw punches. Just because youre old doesnt mean you cant throw punches especially at a guy whos applying crazy pressure on you

              I didnt respect Marg for doing what he did but i cant respect a guy for simply running aroun, that was ridiculous

                He had Mayweather dancing to Richard Simmons.

                  What about Marg dont you respect.........

                  Its wholey Pacs team fault for this. Im sorry it hurts...Shane couldnt pull the trigger against May and Mora....why would this fight be any different, a year on.......

                  In such a situation, Pac should have been more aggressive..............

                    Well i dont respects Margs corner because theres no reason he should have gotten beat up like that.

                    You're not understanding how its almost impossible to "pull the trigger" against guys who are simply running around the ring trying to survive. I dont know how Pac could have possibly been more aggressive. Mosley has a iron chin and was running around simply trying to survive
