Rump-I know Mosley looked like shit in his last two fights, but Mosley has the style to beat Manny. Manny is not going to run like Mora and he doesn't have the defense of Mayweather. Shane will be able to hit Manny easily and Shane has one punch knock out power. This will be a good fight maybe the fight of the year. People forget that Mosley beat and knocked out Margarito with zero problems and Margarito never hurt Mosley in that fight.

Shane is lacking one very important thing in this fight. He doesn't have a great jab. That's probably the single most important tool to beating someone with the speed and movement of Pacquiao. You have to off set his speed with timing.

Shane has never had a great jab, IMO.

I'm just sick of doubting Manny.
I've made every excuse in the book as to why he would have troubles against DLH, Cotto and Margarito. Those were all fairly close fights in regards of Vegas odds. Manny ran through all of them. The last person to really give Manny a fight was Marquez.

Although when Mosley beat Margarito he was a huge dog as well. I think it was around 3.5 to 1.

Vegas is basically giving Mosley about a 12.5% chance of winning.

I'm just not really hyped for this fight. Nothing about it intrigues me. It better have a good under card.

MoreBass- Marquez didn't use a jab at all in both fights. Marquez used head movement, foot work, and counter punching to offset Pac-Man's combination punching. Every time Manny missed Marquez made him pay. Marquez was in front of Manny for 24 rounds because he moved his head. All 4 knockdowns of Marquez by Manny was because Marquez didn't move his head on the inside. 1st off -Mosley can make 147lb with no problem. 2nd off Mosley shines against no defense fighters and Manny is very easy to hit even slow ass Margarito marked him up. 3rd off - Mosley is one of the best body punchers in boxing, and Manny was hurt by Margarito and Marquez to the body. 4th off -Mosley and Manny both loves to stand and trade, so you get them together with their fast hands and you will get fireworks. 5th off- Mosley needs money and he knows that if he has a good showing in this fight win or lose he has Mayweather 2, Cotto 2, and Margarito 2, and even a rematch to look forward to if he looks good. 6th off - and the most important thing Manny is going to remind Shane of his dirty ass ex-wife in the ring because both are of Asian descent.

he also doesn't have any head movement. Which is bad news when fighting pacquiao (see margarito, ricky hatton, david diaz, oscar, clottey, etc).

Pacquiao hasn't even been using head movement for the most part in his last 3 fights. He's not bouncing in and out like he used to either. A jab is still important but if you're not fast enough to get your hand back in time you're going to get countered. A jab is very important against him but it was more important when it interrupted his timing in regards to footwork. Now you need to disrupt his timing in regards to combinations. Through his career he's thrown a lot of punches in his combo's but he stops at 2-3 punches if he's countered, that's better than 5-6 punches that all land clean.

He doesn't need head movement since he has the fastest punches, that crazy hook cross shit he does that goes 80 mph lol...Basically, if anyone comes in on Pac their going to take hits trying to. All he has to do is play defense the whole time and he will win against anyone..
