    Default Pacquiao vs Mosley

    I read a few stories now and I'm seeing Roach move closer to to welter 42, 43, 44. I read right after Mosley's defeat of Margarito that Pacquiao made a comment about fighting Mosley but can't find it now.

    I don't know how tough it would be for Mosley to make a 145 catch weight since he barely made weight for Marigito and he had to come back a second time. What was Mosley's fight weight? was it close to 160?

    Mayweather Jr ain't going to fight Mosley next anyway and I think Mosley's ESPN Interview was just ploy to Roach. Mosley still has a little time to to make the counter offer, but that clock is ticking. I think he is showing remarkable composure for a fight he wants badly. So far all Mosley has had to do is wait and Roach's numbers have been going up.

    On FNF, Roach said that he'd settle for 147, but that he'd prefer to fight at a catch-weight in order to "level the playing field". So it sounds like if none of PBF, Cotto, or Mosley will fight at a catch-weight Pac will move up to 147 to fight one of them. However, I'm positive one of them will agreed to a catch-weight in order to cash in and beat out the other two potential opponents.

    PBF could and should fight at a catch weight but Cotto and Mosley can not make it at a catch weight. They would be drained as they barely make 147. Plus, if Pac don't want it with either Cotto or Mosley at 147 then they should say screw that and fight the rematch. Force Pac to fight welterweights at welterweight. That is what PBF has to do. PBF is a small welterweight so he should fight the catch weight. But the Pac/Mosley at 147 is Mosley all day.

    We will see Pacquiao is way faster than Cotto, and look at what his timing did against Mosley. IMO I think Pacquiao won't stop Mosley, but he is way too fast and good on the outside. Mosley will likely try to box him like he did against COllazo and not really use a lot of power, but rely on speed, and Pacquiao as is evident by what he did against Hatton is no Collazo.
