    Pacquiao vs Mosely

    Anyone going to watch the fight this weekend? I'll be in Vegas catching it an open circuit.

    Though I'm a big Pacquiao fan, I really like Mosely. His speed was always an advantage but now he'll be fighting a faster fighter and might have the same issues he had with Mayweather, plus I'm sure his age has caught up to him already.

    I'm hoping Pacman is focused as I was worried at his last fight with all the distractions he was going through. I guess that's how he rolls. GO PACQUIAO!

    There is one thing that Mosley has over Pacquiao.......his girlfriend! Bella Gonzales woooo! I wouldn't mind getting my *** kicked and coming home to her.

    Dude all I have to say is the Camp 360 series leading up to this fight has been so much of a letdown compared to HBO's 24/7 series.

    Ugggh.

    Pac took this fight knowing there was nothing to gain out of this [outside of a big pay day of course]. I don't necessarily knock Pac for taking the fight but really if he wins, so what? If he loses, the internet won't ever shut up about Mayweather.

    Although if I'm Mayweather I'm rooting for Pac every fight because the more Pac wins the bigger pay day is coming for the both of them should they ever settle this embarrassing fiasco. It's an embarrassment to the sport and to athletic competition in general.

      Easy 12UD for Pac.

      99% of fights made today are lopsided. Sure, you get the odd bout that doesn't go as planned (Salido-Lopez, Berto-Ortiz come to mind), but for the most part, promoters don't like to gamble on their cash cows.

      And that's what this fight is. An easy payday and a way to keep Manny active.

      Mosley has a puncher's chance, but I don't see this going well for him.
      Because he's never been stopped, I'll predict that he'll end the fight on his feet. But I see 12 lopsided rounds and Pac retiring Mosely.

      It's too bad because Sugar Shane is one of my favorite all time fighters. But the lighting he captured against Margarito is done. He looked every bit his age against Mora and Mayweather.

      Pac presents too much speed, aggression, power and angles for Mosley to contend with.

        Dude thanks for letting me know about that chick. She's Smokin!

        Mosley better worry about his face man. You don't want to lose a girl like that.

          For real, this show is a let down. I really hope HBO doesn't **** up again next time. I will be so mad if Paq/Mayweather happens and its on showtime. Actually the only good thing about the show was seeing Bella Gonzales' photo shoot.

          I agree a fight that doesn't seem to make sense but atleast if Pac wins can prove he can box with American Black fighters.

          Well its time to get packing for vegas, going to head up tomorrow for Cinco de Mayo, betting on playoff basketball, vip at Tryst and then Pac fight!!

            Sounds like Pac isn't taking Mosley lightly:

              Im so on the fence about ordering this fight. I want to but I really don't think it will be worth it.

                I'll be watching. This will be a dangerous fight for the first few rounds, but Mosley's age will start to show and Pacquiao will go to work. I will however be very nervous in the opening rounds.

                And Fight Camp 360 pales in comparison to the 24/7 series, but at least we get a different commentary crew this time around. Jim Lampley and company get on my nerves sometimes.

                  Mosley lost to the only southpaw he ever faced - Winky Wright

                  he's also lost his reflexes more than than his power. that was evident since the Floyd fight.

                  Pacquiao via TKO, theres no stopping the Pacman, he is a machine.

                  And its funny how the people who wanted to boycott this fight are probably going to be clamoring to watch it, either via PPV or illegal stream. I bet Floyd wont miss a minute of it either. Cant blame them, the Pacman is bigger than boxing at the moment.

                    Me too. But the undercard looks pretty good too. I'm very interested in seeing how Pavlik looks and there's a few other prospects on the card that intrigue me.

                    Still, $60 is a lot of cash. If this was $40, I think I'd be all over it.

                      I'm getting a hearns/hagler vibe about the 1st 3-4 rounds of this fight

                        I think Mosely has a slight, tiny shot to catch him early. He wont have to chase Manny like he did against Floyd, so him catching Manny with something is possible. But if it goes past 4, its all Manny.

                          I got a sneaky feeling about this fight, the same one I had about Ortiz vs Berto. Something tells me that if Mosley doesn't win it'll be a SD or really close UD. 147 is the natural weight for both guys, I feel. I may be delusional, I dunno. Like I said, a sneaky feeling.

                            I think it'll be similar to Pacquiao vs Cotto. Mosley will be able to sneak some strong shots in here and there and be able to outbox Manny at times, but Pacquiao will overwhelm him with combos for the majority of the fight and eventually have Mosley on his heels towards a UD12.

                              TMZ has just reported that Manny was in a car accident.

                              EDIT: He is just a little shaken up. He will still fight tonight.
