    To the people blaming Mosley for a bad fight...

    This fight was a douche from the get go and all of you id*ots knew it.

    Didn't you see Mosley's last two fights, really are you that d.u.m.b or something? Weren't you expecting something like this. Deserves all you moaning br*ts right...

    Just because Pac didn't get a knock out and out do Floyd some of you are getting your panties in a bunch.

    If Pac fought Berto instead, then we would have got an exciting fight.

    If Pac fights Ortiz instead of Marquez, then we will get an exciting fight rather than a 1 or 2 round blowout - JMM won't be competitive at 147, at all.

    It's Pacquiao's fault; he doesn't know how to cut off the ring; P4P #1 and he can't catch a weak rabbit who's not even fighting back. I can watch 30 Tyson fights where the guy tried to run backwards... He got laid out every time...

      Let's also not forget at 39 Mosley was coming down from fighting at Junior Welterweight, he was bound to get knock down.

        I've got no respect for anyone who blames Mosley for a s*it fight and doesn't discredit Arum and Top Rank for picking him. None at all.

          Mosley at least tried to go after Mora, nobody expected him to be on survival mode from the get go. Nobody expected him to win, but people at least expected him to get hit while TRYING to win.

            You shouldn't blame Mosley, you should blame Pacquiao, & not for his performance; For chosing to fight Mosley knowing he had little to nothing left.

              to be fair though mosley was an aggressive fighter in his last two fights. I didn't expect him to turn into a counter punching back peddling type fighter. Never would have thought I'd see mosley fight like that.

              I was one that believed "styles make fights" and figured it would be a good fight for the first 3-4 rounds, that there would be SOME good toe-to-toe action, then pac would take over and likely even stop him late.

              Mosley usually always comes forward, tries to beat his opponent to the punch, etc. I've never seen him fight the way he fought against Pac before in my life.

                At this point, there’s no question that the time has come for Shane Mosley to retire. He landed all of the mega fights he had been after (against Mayweather and Pacquiao) and he wasn’t able to be competitive in either of them. There’s nothing left for him to do and if he hangs around, he’ll just become a stepping stone for guys like Victor Ortiz and Andre Berto. Many people feel that Mosley ran from Pacquiao and didn’t give it his all. But I feel that those who were disappointed let themselves down by expecting a 39-year-old, who has looked all but shot in his last two fights, to be competitive with the best fighter in the world. In my eyes, Mosley has shown plenty of guts throughout his career. And the only reason he didn’t show that winning spirit against Pacquiao is because he just doesn’t have it anymore.

                  thats not true. mosley was agressive towards floyd for the first 2 rounds & then he tried to fight off the backfoot for the remainder of the fight. floyd knew how to cut the ring off against mosley which defused any potential frustration. thats why mosley was almost stopped....shockingly mayweather is EXTREMELY underrated when it comes to coming foward. pac didn't know how to cut mosley off thats why it became a tap for tap sparring match.......mayweather did.

                  mosley fought agressive towards mora. i must agree to that.

                    Mosley didn't stand infront of Pac and let him beat him up. Pac aint that great you see how many times he left himself open with a simple step to the side from Mosley? A younger Mosley would have KHTFO.
