Pacquiao vs. Mosley - Fight Night talk!

[killersheep]

Mosley was in survival mode from round 4 on, lame with the overkill on the sportsmanship. I can respect Mosley as a nice guy, but he made no effort to win that fight.

That looked more like a sparring match than a title fight. I like sportsmanship just fine, but come on! Throw a punch like you mean it!

What I enjoy most about big fights like these is the attention from Mainstream media (ESPN and other news organizations) and people actually asking be about the fight. Feels like it is a sport that is still prominent.

What we need more of is for one of these truly big fights to be epic Vasquez/Marquez to get the non-fan public really hooked.

Horrible performance by Shane, I hate to say it, but he couldnt pull the trigger just like everyone had been saying about him. Was in survival mode, the only thing he could land was touching Mannys glove after a headbutt. Boring fight. Pac seemed like he could have done more as well.

[Ghost]

Boring fight..

Seemed like just another pay day.

For Godssake, just say you want to fight Mayweather. PLease.

The best fight of the night was Arce-Vazquez, i'm happy that the tough little mexican was able to win a 3rd title.

Pac-Shane was a stinker, I hope Bob Arum gives us a better opponent for Pacquiao next time, this fight sucked.

There's no one else really unless Pacquiao has a catchweight vs some of the Jr Middleweights.

Or is willing to come down to 140. It's not as though he is boiling down to 147.

Marquez in the fall at 140. Only at 140 though, Marquez would be coming up in weight already.

Im bit worried for my boy JMM, because he's getting marked up alot now. And he's been getting dropped and hurt, the man is a warrior and is my favourite current fighter. I also think he beat Pacquiao twice, but i would be really worried about him fighting Pacquiao at this point.

But he certainly would give a much better performance, than Mosley did whether he wins or loses.

Or takes a suicide mission to become an immortal by trying to beat the reigning middle king, Sergio Martinez!

True, but there still has to be someone more competitive then Mosley for Pacquiao to fight next. I realize the bottom line in boxing, is making money, but stinkers like the one tonight just hurt boxing.

I wake up this morning still mad I paid to see Shane Mosely run and run not willing to fight or counter. It was one of the most despicable showings I can remember. Mosely was there to pick up 1 last big pay day and that was it

[the wiz]

A couple points/observations about the fight came Pac's future opponents. After the knockdown and the look on Shane's face, it was over. He was just trying not to get knocked out. Mosley is shot, plain and simple. As far as Manny not looking great, it was kinda tough too look great with his style against a guy that was just in there to survive. Now the top fight for Pac is obviously Mayweather, it just won't happen though. So let's look at future opponents... I believe in Pacquiao's agreement with Top Rank there's a minimum amount he has to make for a fight. I think for that big reason is why we'll see him with big names not necessarily the best opponents. The next fight will probably be Marquez. 144 is being thrown around, too high of a weight for Marquez. Manny will get the knockout this time and look good doing it. Then we'll probably have a Cotto rematch because he's the "biggest" name out there. The angle would be Cotto has a real trainer now, Cotto will never be the same after the Margarito fight. Personally I'd like to see him against Ortiz. But we have the whole Golden Boy issue. Hopefully that issue can be solved. For the record there I personally can't stand Golden Boy. Their stealing of fighters has just gotten old, try to develop some talent. Hell, they even stole Ortiz with that bankruptcy nonsense.

That was an amazing display by Arce. The guy has guts on tap.
