    Team Pacman,pfp#1 & best fighter in boxing was being blatantly disrespectful for offering a shot 40 year old a big payday that ****** fans would pay 60 bucks to watch.That's disrespectful.




    When U turn down more than 5 million of legally earned funds then come holla with that bull****.
    Alot of ATG's and HOF fighters have done this.

    Marciano offering Louis a fight
    Robinson offering Armstrong a fight
    Holmes offering Ali a fight
    Barrera offering Kelley a fight

    I mean I could go on and on. If you follow the history of the sport, then you would know that team Pacquiao didn't do anything that hasn't been done countless times before.

      How many times has it been done back to back??How many times did the boxing community fall for it hook,line & sinker.How many times was the culprit considered the best fighter of his era & could do no wrong??

        Now a man with any kind of common sense would say,Mosley is shot to ****,why exactly did bob arum & team Pacman pick the shottest,most shopworn legend to fight??And when they do pick him,why would the smart boxing fan blame the shot 40 year old for a dud??If U wanna bash someone,bash the people that Chose the shot fighter,not the shot fighter himself.Is he supposed to turn down the payday??
        this is the FIRST TIME that shane fought like that. and he's been pretty shot for quite a while now. you act as if we expected mosley to run. did you expect mosley to not even try?

          Glad I paid $5 to watch that "fight" in a sports bar and not $65 to watch it at home, ouch!

          Chicken fingers were pretty good.

            Again, Alot of those same fighters would go on streaks of facing opponents with 20-30 losses on there record, and yes they were considered the best of their era.

            It's boxing.....it happens. No fighter goes out and face elite compitition each and every time they step in the ring.

              I didn't expect Mosley to leave that ring after going 12 rounds with the pfp king & arguably boxing's best fighter,I'll tell U that.Did U??If that were Martinez or maybe even Cotto across the ring from Mosley,he's be exiting on a stretcher.Just saying.

                  He was the underdog, but it doesn't mean he isn't expected to upset the favorite.
                  He didn't fight at all. Look at the KD of Pac, he literally pushed him with open palm. He didn't even attempt to make it look legit by throwing a closed fist, he couldn't wait to get Pac off of him.

                  Bernard Hopkins was also the underdog against the lineal champ at 175. He came to fight and got a draw and now got a rematch.
                  Bernard is no where near his best days... like Mosley.

                      I respect Shane....But that fight was bullshyt....I paid 65 bucks for that...If it wasnt for the ARCE fight the whole card would of been a bunk. That was the only excitement the whole night.

                      Since the cotto fight...Shane has been declining...The Margarito fight was a fluke. Sugar needs to hang them up.
