Shane Mosley- If Floyd wanted the fight, it would have already happened

Now post the video of Roach telling the world that they don't want to fight Shane after the Margarito fight please. If Pac wanted to fight fighter that wasn't a shell of his former self, he wouldn't have opted for Cotto over Shane Mosley.

coach roach had called out floyd, the greatest fighter in the world (wink, wink), for like a thousand times. which makes your post totally irrelevant.

Shane consistently has show he knows more about the real situation than anyone else in boxing. Good job by him telling it like it is without any bias

If Floyd didn't care about pac's needle phobia this fight would have happened. There is something fishy about an ex juiced fighter accepting a fight against someone who doesn't want to take the test.

The interesting part about Shane Mosley making a statement like that is he complained that Roach and Arum wouldn't let him ANYWHERE NEAR Pacquiao literally for YEARS! And he was correct.

So for him to now pretend that the burden of making the fight under stipulated terms presently rests on Floyd's shoulders makes him quite the belly crawling hypocrite. Shane has gone on record(and video available on Youtube) discussing how difficult it was to get a match with Manny. He had come to the Wild Card gym several times and practically begged for a match. Roach asked if Shane could make 142lbs. Shane replied "No". Roach then replied "Well then we have no fight".

That is ... until Mayweather completely dominated Mosley by walking him down after Roach said that Mayweather would run all night!

So I wouldn't put too much stock in a statement like that coming from Mosley. It makes him look as foolish and desperate as him climbing in the ring to beg for a match during Mayweather's post-fight interview.

Still, as long as what he says seems bitter and spiteful towards the man who dominated him like never before, peasants will gladly accept and embrace those petty words.

After all, petty things amuse petty minds.

Since you are saying that, I guess you agree with his point when he told Floyd that he should make Pac take the test. Obviously, after fighting him, he things Pac is on something, so I guess your saying he knows the "real situation" in that regard as well, huh? Or does that only apply when it fits your agenda?
