Thread: Just watched Morales-Raheem

This makes me even more confident that Mosley will put up a good fight. Sure Pacquiao has gotten better since that point, but look how badly Morales lost that fight, then he went on to give Manny a ton of trouble for 6ish rounds of their second fight. Also Mosley doing poorly against Mora is comparable to Morales looking bad against Raheem.

The big difference is most people felt Mosley won where as Morales got badly outboxed. Morales IMO was further past it because he didn't have the natural talents such as speed and power that Mosley has while also having Morales incredible chin and tenacity. This fight just reminded how awkward this fight is going to be for Pacquiao and that a guy like Mosley doesn't need perhaps all his youth to make this an awsome fight. Easily the best fight Manny has had since Cotto, and before that Marquez. I am very interested to see if Mosley can emulate the destructive power he used against Margarito with Pacquiao because he is the bigger man with bigger power, and much more speed than any of Manny's recent opponents.

Lol, your pretty funny. I just watched ODLH against Mosely, and now I think Pac is gonna knock him out before 10 rounds.

Pac will not be a sitting duck for Mosely if that's what you're thinking Taeth. All Margarito did against Mosely was eat punch, smile, eat punch, smile, eat punch, smile, til finally he couldn't take 'em no more.

He doesn't have to be a sitting duck. Pacquiao is no defensive genius. Mosley will land his punches. Interesting to see what happens next

Mosley is past it, gun shy and punchy. Anyone that's buying into this bullshit is ridiculous. Mosley is a lamb for the slaughter... Nothing more. Mosley should retire while he can still walk and chew gum at the same time

I'm with VD on this one. If Mosley lands on Mayweather, he's sure as hell gonna land on Pacquiao. I just think Mosley literally has three or four rounds to land in. Once he starts getting hit from all angles and getting hit 3 or 4 times for the one shot he tries to throw it'll be just like Mosley Mayweather, where Mosley gets gun shy out of fear of getting hit, and in turn, just getting ground down and bamboozled.

I believe Mosley will last a while in there if not the whole fight. Hell even win som roundz (mostlikly the 1st 1z) but he wont knockout Pac or beat him

has anyone noticed that the only fights Taeth comments on are Pacquiao or Mayweather fights?

not true he also gets hard off of Andre Berto, Andre Dirrell, and Amir Khan

I think Mosley is dangerous for 4 rounds. His powerful right hand is enough to do damage to pac if he has the right game plan but its gotta be early. Pac will be hit in this fight but i believe if it goes past 6 round it will be incredibley one sided and pac may stop mosley.

It will be a good fight and I can't wait for it to happen.
