Off Topic · OT: Manny Pacquiao vs. Shane Mosley (page 1)

Being a Filipino im curious to see your opinions on the fight. Its going to be an intresting fight on my view both fighter like to brawl so its going to be an exciting fight. Im still dissapointed though that Floyd chickened out to fight Pacquiao.

I see Manny winning via knock out not sure though what round.

what is your opinion on this fight?

I cannot wait to watch this one. I still am undecided on how this one will play out. I do hope that Pac wins via KO and Mayweather caves to the pressure. I really want to see Pac break Mayweather's face open... I've wasted too much money on watching crappy Mayweather fights

pacman is a 9-1 favorite

wow...

I'm not surprised, because my immediate reaction was "Pac is gonna whoop some butt" but hadn't really considered the amtch up. That's good to know... dreed up more time to read about the raid and sea burial

pac man gonna destroy this guy

Shane has not looked good his last two fights... especially vs floyd.. but what shane will do is come to fight. He KO's margaritto who took pac 12 rounds although pac destroyed margaritto's face.... Pac should win this one, but it would not suprise me if shane came away with a shocker.. shane is a natural welter weight.. maybe this is the time fighting a bigger guy catches up with pac.. I doubt it, but you never know.. shane is no bum..

well to support pacquiao..... He could have easily KO'D margarito but he had heart... the stupid as* ref wanted to see if Margarito could still go.... Pacquiao showed that he cares more of the safety of his opponent rather than a KO in his record

Did not know there were more pinoys in this board. It thought it was just me and islesfan.

Anywho..Manny is going to destroy Mosley. I say in 7 rounds.

Heads up for the fight! its on tommorow here is the primer for the fight! this is the last episode though so you can just search youtube, for episodes 1-3.

Boxing and a big horse race.

Used to be relevant back in the day. Now they make better movies than real sporting events.

Even Gerry Clooney was relevant.

Ernie Shavers!

Heavyweights used to matter.

where are the great horsed now?

I think it's going to be more entertaining, especially early, than most think. Mosley will throw a lot more punches at Pacquiao than Delahoya, Cotto, Clottey or Margarito did. Even though he'll hit Pacman, he won't hurt him and Mosley will take the worst of the toe to toe exchanges. Give Mosley credit for standing and fighting Pacman but it will wear him out and Mosley will suffer his first KO of his career in the 8th round.

Perhaps they have gone the way of Ali's speech. Remember the man in his youth? How he was always as quick with the verbal jab as he was with the left?

Mosley coming out to LL Cool J rapping(Momma Said Knock You Out) I'm Gonna Knock You Out....lol

anyone have a link?

Round 1 - fighters just feeling each other out. Not a lot of lateral movement from Pacquiao and not a lot of punches thrown.

Round 2 - more action by both fighters. Manny landed several combinations working off his jab. Mosley is keeping Manny at a distance and landed a few.

Mosley down but gets up. In trouble.

Round 3 - Mosley down by a straight left and was dazed. Manny went for kill but couldn't get it. Mosley has to clear his head going into round 4.

Round - Mosley took half the round to get his legs back and came back strong to end the round. Manny was strong throughout being aggressive with his left hook off his right jab.

Round 5 - Mosley very defensive and on his heels but got a few body shots in. Manny is pushing the action.

Round 6 - it's that time in Pacquiao's fights where his opponent is fighting scared like they know they can't win and is just trying to survive. Mislaid confidence is gone after getting knocked down. Pacman is comfortably ahead in rounds.
