Why Did Pacquiao fight Mosley after the world had called Mosley (Shot)?

[turbotime]

145 cw...Cotto weighed 146 the fight before. And said there was no problem maing that weight being his last 6 fights have ranges from 145-146 and 147 once. Remembered. Cotto was given a choice.
Marg cheated. point blank! Even if he wanted a CW...Pac was still the smaller guy. heheheee Pac is a beast!

Pac is a beast when he needs catchweights...oh except for the last Marquez fight heeeeheeeee!

[I Love Jesus!]

The media, fans, Freddie Roach and even Bob Arum had all said that that Mosley no longer had it, that he was Shot.

So why didn't Pacquiao take that chance to go after a young hungry lion like Andre Berto or someone else?

Can't be money, because Berto has 10 times as big of a following as Bradley could even dream of.

of course its money. money is the reason for every fight

Manny saw the fire in Mosley's eyes. It was the best possible opponent at the time. Stop hating...War Manny!!!

hes still the smaller guy beating the bigger guys...At All weights! CWs or not...hes the smaller guy beating the nanny out of everyone....Machine. Guess what...JMM got beat in in his last fight. You sould have watched it. But JMM did better than most...He always has. And Manny beat him on an off night. Manny is a beast...

You are full of donkey doo that`s why non *******s don`t take you serious on here.

Nice try .... that's what Floyd fans do when they are presented with FACTS ... they either name call, state that your English is bad or shoot out some off topic comments but never back up their comment with facts of their own ...

Who cares if Pac is smaller beating bigger guys. Smaller guys beat bigger guys every day in boxing. Big deal

This is B.S, Mosley looked way slower in the Pacquiao fight then he did the Floyd fight.

Also Floyd called out Mosley when he was in his prime and Mosley avoided him.Pacquiao called out Mosley when he was completely shot.

At least you had a comment on this one .....

but

Floyd called out Mosley when he was moving up ..... but Floyd calling out people's name doesn't mean anything .... "MANNY YOU ARE NEXT" .... "YOU TAKE THE TEST AND WE HAVE A FIGHT"

I wasn't overwhelmed with Manny picking Mosley either .... but I do remember that until Manny picked Mosley, Floyd fans were calling him scared ... but I said, no point now ... Mosley was old against Floyd so .... he is still old.

I call it the way I see it .... FACTS BABY! I admit things even when its Manny but after Floyd admitted to cherry picking how can Floyd fans defend that? That is just too hilarious!!!

The old Margarito? Do you mean the one that got caught cheating? Also i remember reading where Cotto said these fights were all that was offered to him by Arum. But now Arum gone and this fight is made. Food for thought

Perhaps Margarito was cheating ... but we will never know for sure ... but Margarito was way more healthy in the previous fight ... Margarito was still able to take everything that Cotto gave and more .... and connected on Cotto much more and walked him down better ...... he did everything way better in that fight than the one that they just fought .... some I credit Cotto for making some adjustments but if one is being objective about it, Margarito from old would have presented a different fight.

I was cheering Cotto all the way in both fights ... but you have to admit, Margarito vs Cotto I, was not the same as Margarito vs Cotto II .... and I will cheer for Cotto against Floyd but I just haven't seen enough of a turnaround from Cotto to say this will be competitive ....
