    it's the whirlwind approach that got him where he is and what dropped ssm - he's not a cute boxer.

    he is upping the pace in bursts now if he maintained it he would have got him out.

    Yeah you can see his output picking up for sure!!!

    You don't think though over the last few bouts Manny is becoming more complete as a fighter? He uses more angles, paces himself more, better defense etc...He knows that he is aging and can't keep the super speed mode forever especially if he keeps fighting bigger men

    That was a horrible fight and told us nothing and yes I will be critical. I was supporting Mosley, but criticised this fight time and time again and it has only confirmed to all of us why there was no need for this fight to be signed in the first place.

    Mosley used the Barrera 2 model and threw about 7 right hands all night. He circled effectively, but showed that he cannot throw more than a 2 punch combo without running in and holding. Manny Pac merely did what he had to do, he showed us nothing new.

    What this has also showed is that Manny Pac is nothing more than an opportunist when it comes to matchmaking. A cheater followed by a former great who hasn't won in a number of years.

    I am sure I am not alone in feeling this way. Few of us believed that this fight should have been made and the boos in the crowd confirmed why.

    It was a very poor fight.

    I thought MAB done better than Mosley though, i had him winning 3 rounds if i remember rightly.

    But yea poor effort from Mosley, he actually touched Pacquiao's gloves more than he hit him LOL.

    Mosley did have success with the armpit up push in the clinch, he should have done that more.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Barrera did. Unless you are Margarito it seems that Pac has that mental edge from the go at these weights. Nobody outside of Marquez is willing to box him smartly with conviction.

    On the way up people thought they could trade with him, now it's gone the other way and it's a case of not being willing to throw your own punches whatsoever. Well, not quite true Margarito gave it a fair shot, he just didn't have the skills.

    I gaven't read the thread and don't know what you guys thought but here's what I saw:
    1. An overmatched Shane realized he was over matched.
    2. Shane stopped being able to let his hands go 18 months ago
    3. Manny's worst performance since before the Diaz fight. Lousy balance, on one foot way to often, wild right hand, fighting in a straight line. It was the old Manny.
    4. Manny's will and desire remain undiminished and startling

    My big question is the following. Did Manny overtrain (a risk in older fighters) or has Father Time really begun to make an impact on him?

    I agree it was a horrible fight. It went like a lot of Floyd's fights. But it doesn't reflect on a damn thing except what Mosley was incapable of. I think he caught the Clottey syndrome.

    As far as Pac picking opponents, it's more a reflection on Top Rank. We all know who's next in line. I think the only chance for Floyd to get the big money fight with Pac is to step up to the plate now because I think there won't be any more opportunity in the future. Floyd will be kicking himself for not taking the last offer till he reaches his grave.

    One has to take Bella Gonzalez from Mosley and give to a real man.

    is Marquez next? hopefully its Ortiz or one of the other beltholders so PAC could unify the welters.
