One of the HBO commentators, I think Emmanual, was saying when they were discussing Pac's next fight, that he would actually much prefer to see Pac fight Mosley. Because Mosley is a much more attacking and offensive fighter, and isn't afraid to trade, especially when someone really lands on him, as Pac does...
I mean, Floyd is the undefeated unstoppable number one, and the Floyd fight just makes a tonne more sense and basically MUST happen at some stage..
It is almost like, unfinished business in the fans eyes, and for that reason I want to see that fight more than Pac v Mosley..
But as HBO said, for the actual spectacle and excitement and fights to look back on as a real classic, I am really being sold on what a great fight Pac vs Mosley would be... I originally felt disappointed at the thought of those two fighting rather than Mayweather, but now I would probably not feel much disappointment at all.
It is often hard to image ANY fight Pac is in being anything less than completely action packed and exciting, but with this Clottey fight, you can get an idea of how that can be nullified against a guy who is incredibly defense oriented, as Floyd is.. Although he's certainly not afraid or even cautious really, just intelligent and incredibly good at what he does.. But defensive none the less and can sap the urgency and excitement out of any fight.
For the build up and the questions that need answering, Floyd would be a great nail biting fight, but I think Mosley would be more exciting..
Which would you prefer?
