Thread: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.

Whatever...If team pac doesn't take this fight then that Margarito asswhooping must've really put fear in them...I mean Mosley is basically saying come beat me just so long as you pay me a healthy check...

Mosley says he’ll go to 140! | Fightnews - Boxing News Updated 24/7

I'd say team pac should take it just kicks. They should impose 1M dollar penalty per excess pound. And let's see if Mosley is really or just bluffing.

If Moseley can make the weight (Which I doubt) what do you think he would rehydrate to? 160? if this is done properly (Not like ODH) then this is a genuine mismatch. Unless shane is just doing it for the money; surely he must have learned from ODH's beating.

20 pounds is a lot to sweat off and put back on, I'd guess if he dryed up to that much he'd probably not get past 154.

All depends on the confidence he has in the people around him. He says he walks around at about 160 when he's in shape... that's a lot of H2O and Glycogen to be taking out of your body's cells.

I got Bio-Electrical Impedance tests done on me, it measures your body composition, I had ideal hydration levels I'll dig my results out and let you know how much H2O I have in me!!

Mosley needs to realize that he's not getting this fight right now, no matter what.

yep. i dont even think he can make 140 to be honest.

Either it's a bluff to keep his name out there or he doesn't mind taking a beating for a pay day... that or he's being genuine, don't think he could do 140 somehow though.

One thing I do think... if he's bluffing then the Pac Camp are going to think that if he is asking for 140 then 144 won't be that much trouble for him... if so I don't think they'd want the fight.

Damn Mosely sounds serious. Actually's he one of the few fighters I can imagine making the cut and still being successful such is his dedication to the sport.

I'd rather he stayed at 147 though. I think Manny and Mosely are slightly too far apart in natural weight to make a fight really viable.

Although Shane obviously wants in on the action, its tough for him right now. Floyd, Cotto and Pacqauio all involved in big fights and Shane has nobody to really fight as he's conquered Margarito already.

For me the best fight for Sugar Shane is Andre Berto, but that wouldn't generate one fifth of the money he'd get for Manny so little wonder he wants that fight and is prepared to go to drastic lengths to secure it.

I'm still trying to figure out why Mayweather and Mosely aren't fiighting each other

According to floyd. Shane isnt a big enough draw, he takes steroids, basically he isnt that good right now and is just an old man looking for a pay check.



Here are floyds opponents...

JMM then a rematch against a ruined HATTON in ENGLAND. But I think they might even tell him to keep it close against JMM so that he can milk a rematch and sucker the casual spectators into buying a rematch so that he can "steal" some more money from boxing as he puts it. He's really smart and i don't blame him for it. He made his mark in boxing for what he did before he moved up to 140. It's a shame that a mega match up against mosley won't happen unless mosley looks completely torn and washed against his opponent. Then mark my words. All that shane mosley isn't a draw, and he took steroids nonsense will be out the window and they will fight...Just like floyd didnt fight hatton until he looked beatable after the fight with collazo. But floyd claimed it was because Hatton called him out, but all Hatton said was "his fights were boring"...I remember a big dude named margarito wanting to fight him. I remember Paul williams verbatim saying "I want Mayweather", after he beat Tony.

Love ya Shane.But dumb,dumb move.Pacquiao must feel like a living breathing lotto ticket right about now.

i remember the first time mosley approached roach for a possible fight with pac, freddy asked him, "can you get down to 142?" and that was the end of it. now shane is bluffing and this fight ain't happening, at least not at 140.

Mayweathers excuses for not fighting Mosley are lame. Nobody wants to fight Mosley because they know that even in his late 30's he has a very good shot of beating them up.

Pac is chicken shit too with his catchweights and slavery to Arums desires.

My friend, I def agree. 140 is an insane drop for Shane. Shane stays in constant shape a la Hopkins. He does not bloat inbetween fights but seriously?... Shane can stil make Welter at his age but friggin barely... Light welter is a no no. Pac would make him look silly at 140. Shane is looking for a pay day, clearly. He has delusions of grandeur if he thinks he can make 140 and perform like he did against Cotto and Margarito... He's a lamb for the slaughter at light welter

Can somebody tell me why Cotto V Mosley 2 is not being talked up?
I would have thought that Mosley would have a score to settle there before going completely insane and dropping down to 140lb to fight Pacman?
