Comments Thread For: Mosley: Pacquiao's Power Could Be Key With Mayweather

[GRUSTLER]

Why's that? Floyd got dropped by Zab even though they didn't call it a knock down when his gloves hit the canvas. Shane rocked him with a single right hand..To definitively say he would have no problem would be crazy.

Zab and Mosely got shut out.

Floyd has a VERY good chin.

No Floyd has exceptional reflexes, he has not been hit flush very often in his career. The couple of times that I have seen clean shots he was hurt to some extent. I believe one of the reason's he has not fought Pacquiao is Manny's speed, for once in his career Floyd would be the slower fighter. He fears that fact, along with Manny's power.

Zab didn't get shut out...Shane was already washed up at that point so who cares, he still rocked him with one punch did he not?
Point is, he's been hit and dropped and rocked pretty bad and it's not out of the realm of possibility it could happen again. I think Floyd wins but to think he won't get hit is ridiculous.

Pacman is fighting Bradley...so the discussion on this thread is useless. Can we just focus on reality, not just a dream boy!

"After losing to Mayweather, Mosley got the chance"................... lol

Much like the Cotto fight, when Floyd looses at least 1 or 2 rounds (like vs Judah and Mosley) a lot of people consider that a loss due to the fact that Floyd typically shuts fighters out. It's just the standards that are placed on Floyd which are higher than any active fighter today.

The conversation has nothing to do with people seeing him losing the fight..it's the point of Manny having the power and speed to catch and maybe drop or hurt him. FLOYD is the master of making adjustments in the ring and I'd expect the same against Manny but he's also never fought anyone with the speed and power and movements/punching angles of Pacquiao.

wow! Mosley is in the Phillipines for a charity event and is building up a Filipino?

Yeah thats all that needs to be said

"Johnson knew the hard fights were the black boxers"...the two fights were I can truly recall floyd getting tapped were against..black boxers. Both who used feints perfectly to get off. I always wonder what if...Mayweather hadn't found Mosley's arm...what if Mosley did have stamina issues and had been just smidgeon younger...I still feel like if he hadn't tied Mosley up he would've not been able to get up from a follow up punch.

Sorry, its true. He's been hit flush plenty of times. There really isnt room for debate.
