    He let Margarito off the hook when he could've gone for the kill, but that was at least understandable since Tony looked like his head went through a meat grinder. But the love tap **** with Shane was excessive, no aggression in that fight whatsoever besides Pac being pissed about the fake knockdown.

        to me, that friendly stuff in the ring is a mockery of the sport. i get the we are cool outside the ring. but inside the ring, be about business. no time for niceties. for those 12 rnds, that man is ur enemy. act like it. manny had a very hard time with that saturday.

          Shane was the one looking for hugs and kisses all night long. The old man better keep hold of that 5 mill cos Bella ain't gonna be around for much longer.

          But Manny should have mopped the floor with Shane the same way he dismantled Margarito. Oh well the fight was always going to be one sided and that is why we are all frustrated right now.

            It was quite annoying as a spectator. Both guys there to get a paycheck. Manny didnt force the issue, Mosley pussied out. What a pathetic performance from shane. he should be ashamed of himself.

              Shane was trying to dampen Manny's killer instinct.

              He reached out to touch gloves after he climbed off the canvas and he also embraced Manny for a long hug at the beginning of the 12th, when Shane was in full survival mode.

              He was begging Manny not to hurt him.

                this...people need to realize that it was Mosley who was always looking for the ****** high fives. Do you really expect Manny to sucker punch him? Just not his character. But yeah, the fight was too friendly and I really think Mosley was just trying to survive all 12 rounds so he can pick up his check and fuck Bella in the ass, instead of spending time in the hospital like Marg did, and who can blame him?

                    Mosley was the one who was initiating the touching gloves. What is Pac gonna do just dart in and throw a uppercut? Shane and Naz have been extremely classy during the build up of the fight and you don't fight dirty against someone you respect.

                    And I think Shane was trying to play mind games. After getting hit harder than you've ever been in your entire career and that includes against USS Cunninham than you would be trying to touch gloves ever chance you got as well.

                      I'm not totally convinced yet with him losing his killer instinct. Like with Margarito, Pac was proven right to not continue to hit him hard since Tony is still out to this day. We can only imagine what state Marg would be in right now if Pac didn't stop beating on that brocken socket.

                      However at the same time this proves to Manny that he made the right decision and this will probably prompt him to continue to do this in future fights. Good for his opponents, sucks for us.

                      I'm on the same page as everyone w/ the glove touching shi.t. I hate it, but that's not necessarily new with Pac. He tries to do that with everyone. Most of the time people ignore him because they have the proper mentality to win.

                      Jump to 1:17 after the KD and a furious exchange, at the end of the round Manny taps JMM's gloves.



                      It's almost a testament to how much of a kid Manny still is in the ring. Here he is having a war with someone and after he almost drops JMM again, he wants to touch gloves to pretty much say, "hey good round, no hard feelings alright?"

                      Sh.its annoying.
