I'm pretty sure it was.........money. The reason why most people fight other people. Pac gets no credit for the win but hey a win is a win.

Go....
A beautiful KO of Mayorga in the final round with seconds remaining.
Should have got the decision over a middleweight Mora, who wanted to run all night. Well that where Mosley got that tactic from.
Since "Very Casual BoxingFollower" can't name the top 3 Berto wins, maybe you can help him out?
How about this one, what great name did Berto beat in November to put him in frame to win the Pacquiao sweepstakes?

and on the "Roach & Arum had said Floyd won over a old Mosley"-topic...Roach & Arum are the most famous Floyd-haters...they are not different to the Floyd haters on this forum or in the world...no matter what Floyd does they will be hate...
I assume that Arum's presentations are also the most suitable promotionally and as PPV attractions also.

Mosley was much easier to negotiate with, with him being a free agent.
Mosley over Berto everyday of the week.

Berto, Bradley, Madiana all have bigger followings that Clottey could ever dream of.

What I don't get is why was Mosley turned down TWICE after literally going to the WCG and asking for the fight!!!
