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...

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

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

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

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

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.

Mosley is insane! He's been talking with Oscar I see...

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
Possibly it's a bluff to kep his name out tehre because at the moment we all know the fight isn't happening.
He may have shot himself in the foot though... he's in danger of appearing too confident and I don't think that Roach/Pac will want it.
More likely - 140 won't happen... They want the fight to at least masquarade as a Welterweight one for that belt and to appear to be genuinely in the WW mix, so they have to come up with a catchweight... if Mosely seems over confident he isn't too big to hit it then I really don't think any fight will come off.
At least he can say he offered to come all the way down to 140 though:-\

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
I love Shane and all but now it sounds like he is begging. This is below him and kinda sad. I doubt seriously Pacman will take the bait. I'm really suprised that this is Golden Boy's best idea for landing him this fight. Why doesn't Shane try and make the rematch with Cotto and then neither of them has to agree to a catchweight? I realize Arum won't let it happen but the winner of that fight and the winner of Maquez/Mayweather would now have options and not have to agree to a 70/30 split to fight Pacman.

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
Shane is a Freak of Nature and can probably do it.. Pac and roach dont want it, they couldnt put a dent in a 110lb version of Mosely's chin.. Nazim Richardson wouldnt let Shane talk this mess if he didnt think he had a good gameplan and strategy

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
Shane will have to abnormaly shrink his stomach just to get down 140. He could experience what DLH went through or worst. He'll look like a beef jerky at the weigh in and possibly might not make 145+ come fight night.

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.

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

No doubt. Surely there's good $$$ in a rematch; but maybe they want the dough Pac brns in. Mosley will be hooked up to IV's and rollinh in an electric scooter on his way to the ring at 140 come fight night.

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
shane has nothing to lose if this fight is made. if he manages to get down to 140, he would have the built-in excuse of being dehydrated if he loses. if he wins he'll have a belt in another weight division plus a strong argument for the p4p title. i doubt the team pac would bite.

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
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.
-
Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
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:puncher:

funny that only last year people didnt gave pac even a slight chance against these guys! look at them line up! eheheheh

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
All my props for Shane to offering that, it is the hell of a challenge, especially at his age and if ever he wins, it'll just add tons of cement to his legacy for constantly stepping against the best in their very own sandsquares. Nevertless, he'll really need a Mac Shillestone with him in order to accomplish this gigantic task and i definitely hope for him that he knows things that we don't about this weight drop offer against a VERY tough customer.

No one wants to fight Shane Mosley. He looked too good the last time out.

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
I'm a huge fan of Mosley's, but he's sounding quite desperate with this stuff. He shouldn't be so desperate. He should take the Berto fight... kick his overrated ass... and either take a mega-fight with PBF, or take the winner of the Cotto-Pacquaio fight. Either way, he showed against Margarito he's got a LOT of boxing left in him.

Re: Mosley says he'll fight Pac at 140 for the JWW Belt.
No way Mosley can make 140lb and be effective.
