    one and only and cash cow: perhaps floyd fought a "slightly" better mosley from his confidence of the margarito win. but there is no doubt that pacquiao beat mosley more convincingly. punch stats, as well as mayweather being a flurry away from being stopped prove this to be true. mayweather NEVER ONCE had mosley in serious trouble, and mosley wasn't even TRYING to avoid damage!! lol he was just grinning and blinking the whole time. when has mosley ever got on a bike like that before? FEAR - makes a man act funny.

      same thing in the khan fight, doesn't mean khan was overrated, or is suddenly on the decline. . . lol at least paul made it look a lot cooler than shane by using slick upper body movement while standing still.

        both ****** i got respect for mosley hes a classy guy but he is the reason both fights ****** he was too old for both fights. he ran and held pacquiao all fight and against floyd he gassed after round 4 and just stood in front of him not letting his hands go

          I felt disgusted after Pacquiao-Mosley. I haven't been this disappointed in a fight in a long time. Mayweather-Mosley was much better. Plus, Mosley was WBA champ at the time.

Pacquiao PICKED Mosley after Mosley had two DISMAL back to back performances. Mosley asked Team-Pac for a fight right after Mosley DOMINATED Margarito, and was willing to even go down to 140lbs to get the fight....Pacquiao said no. Mayweather fought a CONFIDENT version of Mosley. Pacquiao fought a DISCOURAGED version of Mosley, EVIDENT by Mosley running the ENTIRE fight and NEVER committing to MIXING it up. Mosley wouldve fought Pac differently had Pac taken up the CHALLENGE right after Mosley OBLITERATED Margarito. Again, Pac fought a DISCOURAGED OLDER Mosley. Floyd Fought a "willing to commit" Mosley that was "riding high" after an OUTSTANDING performance against the "most feared & avoided fighter" in the division.
            Shhhh.... you're making sense.

                  or

                  B. A fight where old man mosley is running for his life for the entire 12 rounds?
                  floyd stood IN FRONT of mosley and WALKED him down.....

                      both floyd and pac beat shane pretty badly but shane fought them both different,

                      floyds style confused shane after he couldnt put him away and he was technically destroyed and out-thought for 10 rounds straight, floyd did not look frustrated or have any problems landing when he wanted to and did what he did best..

                      pac scared the sh!it out of shane after the KD and shane ran for dear life and survived the rest of the fight, the thing i noticed is that pac did not look comfortable fighting a different style other than one who tries to trade with him or one who has little or NO footwork, i think if shane traded with pac and opened up shane would have got KOd but thats the point, he didnt because he can no longer pull the trigger and lacks any sort of jab HE COULDNT PUT ANYTHING TOGETHER.

                      but i guess the leg pain is the reason for it all soooo **** everything i just wrote in the red
