    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.
