Mayweather-Mosley!

[Rantcatrat]

It looks like this is the fight that is trying to be made! Not only is this fight nearly as big as Mayweather-Pacquiao, but it should destroy the ppv numbers Pacquiao-Clottey generate. I mean even casual fans know who Mosley is because of his fights with Oscar De La Hoya, and together I think they could break 1.5 million buys with relative ease as long as boxing is retaining any of the momentum it had before Mayweather-Pacquiao fell through. This may actually be a stylistically tougher fight foy Mayweather than Manny because Shane is so big and fast and he has said that he would keep Floyd on the ropes. I still think Floyd`s style is too slick for Mosley and that he will outbox him, but Mosley is one of those guys who is so gifted you never truly know whats going to happen until the fight has started.

First off It's nowhere near the same level of fight between Pac/Mayweather. It will do bigger numbers than Pac/Clottey but so what? Is that your dig at Pac? Pac's resume shits all over Mayweathers. Mayweather will be to good for Mosley.

I am not trying to discredit Pacquiao at all... I think Clottey is at least competitive with Mosley, but fighting him doesn't perpetuate the sport the same way Mayweather facing Mosley does. IMO this is just making me even more excited for Mayweather-Pacquiao should they both win. I truly believe that this will make that fight way bigger, and that they should have had one more fight before facing eachother anyways. The fact that Mayweather-Mosley is yet another boxing classic that will capture the sports world as a whole just helps whatever will come after that.

To boot this will mean that the winner of Mayweather-Mosley and the winner of Pacquiao-Clottey will be fighting for the p4p belt and for all intents and purposes the linear crown to the most prestigious weightclass in boxing.

I am going to ask that you guys please don't turn this into a competition between Mayweather and Pacquiao. This is a great thing for the sport and we should realize the sport's good fortune, even though it came under such dark circumstances.

Very strong post.
