If Pac fought Shane last week instead of Floyd.....

[Majesty]

I'm under the impression that Shane would have hit Pacquiao a lot more often he hit Floyd and wouldnt have expended so much energy trying to find him.

[Taeth]

I think Pacquiao would have won, but in a very difficult fight because its Floyd's elusiveness and ability to draw you into a boxing contest that makes guys like MOsley so ineffective against him. In either a slug out or a boxing contest against Pacquiao, I think Mosley does much better simply because Pacquiao isn't as skilled as Floyd.

This Question kind of has me wondering if Manny will try and challenge most to try and prove some point? Stlyes Make fights though i cant guess

One things for sure I don't think that Shane would have gassed out as badly as he did against Floyd.

He burned up so much nervous energy standing in front of Floyd trying to second guess him/look for shots, he couldn't just relax and let it flow like he did with Margarito... Because he was finding it hard to figure out were Floyd was/was gonna be.

Don't think he would have burned up half as much energy trying to find Pac. Pac's got a lot of Athleticism but I still don't think that he's that smart of a boxer.

I also think that the worst thing Shane could of done was hit Floyd with his money shot (right hand over the jab) so early... once Floyd has been stung there was no chance it was going to land again and Shane spent the rest of the fight looking for it.

It could've gone eitherway, PAC is hittable compared to Floyd but PAC has more power and more relentless than PBF. So If Pac got nailed by that right hand in the 2nd he could've been stopped otherwise Manny stops Mosely late in the fight.

This is the single best post on what happened in that fight. It's clear that Shane can't deal with guys who he has to figure out (Floyd, Winky & Cotto early). The difference with Floyd is that he never found anything after that 2nd round and used all his energy up trying to create openings. Pacquiao stylistically is a great fight for Shane, comes at you with a leaky defence. Shane has one of the best chins in boxing, and I still think hits harder than Pacquiao, and even if Pac does hurt him, he's not the amazing finisher that many make him out to be.

Exactly, if Clottey was too tough of a nut to crack then how is he going to break down Shane and stop him?

[mularvar]

i think pac could of stopped shane, shane looked done if im honest

[piye]

I really think Shane beats Manny, Styles make fights and Manny whilst awsome is kind of easy to hit, against Mosley that's a problem if Mosley land a few big shots this fight is over.

[g3org3]

shane knocks out pacman if he hit him like he hit floyd in the second, no amount of roids would of saved him.

[Boxer4life]

theres no way to really tell, imo it would ve been alot more competitive. Mosley was simply mentally crushed after he landed those hard shots. Mayweather came back from that strong and started landing hard shots. When you you hit someone with all youve got and they dont go down, something in terms of "o sh*t" pops into your head. Mayweather proceeded to make him miss, which further made him give up.

that being said, Manny is much more hittable then mayweather is, if mosely was getting off, he would have some momentum going, dont know who wins until i see how mosely does in his next fight because honestly, i dont know if mosely got old or if it was maywaether
