Mosley or Pacquiao?
- Thread starter Timm
- Start date
never know, pac really doesn't belong at welterweight and mosley will be the physically strongest fighter he's ever fought. Pac looks pretty small next to sugar:
sugar has fast hands, margarito doesn't. And he's more powerful. And he knows how to clinch.
I think mosley will be dangerous first four rounds, after that pac can take over and overwhelm him. Just needs to be careful early imo. I mean look at floyd. When has floyd almost been knocked down/rocked? very rare. pac will give shane more opportunities so the chance is there.
But like floyd, pac needs to counter/attack when shane throws that lazy jab of his

Shane can't get out the way anymore though....
Shane "had" fast hands, I'm not saying he's slow now but he's declined. If Pacquiao and Shane were fighting in their primes, I'd pick Shane by knockout because Shane would've traded with him. But both fighters would have had to pass Olympic Style Drug Testing since Shane already beat the system once.

I'm not saying he can. I fully expect shane to get rained on by combinations but after round 4 or so. Shane never really had good defense though, but he knows how to clinch and if you think about it, who has ever clinched as a form of defense against pac? Hatton was the only person who attempted recently but that was disastrous lol. Part of that is manny's style, it's hard to clinch him when he's bouncing in and out like he often does.
They have but he still has very fast hands. Faster than Margarito, Hatton, Marquez, Cotto & Clottey....
Lots of older guys still have fast hands. Shit, look at roy jones. You could argue that his hands are faster than anyone at light heavyweight and cruiserweight right now and you'd probably be right. Even at 40-41 years age or whatever he is.
Hopkins also still has pretty fast hands and he's 46 now.
shane was a beast in his prime I think he always would have been a bit too big for pacquiao but who knows, pacquiao loses every fantasy fight but wins against everyone in real life.

My question to Floyd fans is this, if Mosley wins this fight, are you going to say he is shot? I ask because I didn't see many Pac fans saying Mosley was shot when he and Floyd fought, but as soon as Shane was announced as a possible opponent for Pac, I saw a couple of you saying he was a shot fighter.
again don't lump everyone together. For one, Mosley was coming off a huge win against Margarito. And two, I'm a manny fan but I gave floyd all the credit in the world for his performance against shane. You shouldn't be saying anything about "shot" fighters you call everyone shot who loses.
Anyways, to answer the question I think a lot of people will say stupid shit like, "Pacquiao was exposed! I told you he aint shit!"
That sort of nonsense.
