Comments Thread For: Mayweather, Mosley Nearly Brawl at NYC Presser

[jayhova29]

I'll put y money on Mosley over Mayweather 7 days a week. Floyd hasnt wanted to be in a fight since the first Castillo fight. Shane puts him to sleep

lol, wow, like your confidence, i dont know too much about how to bet points on this site and what not, but if your willing to teach me, ill bet all the points i have on that, and ill also bet that pacquiao loses to clottey, dont think its likely, but if there was ever a fighter that Pacquaio might be overlooking its the one he's scheduled to fight next week. that bet goes to anybody who is willing to show me what i need to do to bet points. Ive been undefeated in my predictions this year, i bet that Kendall holt would lose last week, and thats only because i live next to his training ground in paterson,nj and know 1st hand he didnt take Mabuza seriously.

I highly doubt Pac would be overlooking Clottey, Roach wouldnt allow it.

Normally i would agree, but i think pacquiao's camp realizes that his refusal to comply with olympic style drug testing did cast a shadow over his recent accomplishments. Even when they announced that Pacquiao will be fighting Clottey instead of Mayweather, you can't find an interview with Freddie Roach where he didn't bring up Mayweather's name. Trying to save face with boxing fans because hardcore fans know that 14 days is more than fair, and pacquiao's camp has not giving a legitimate reason as to why he wouldnt agree. Bob Arum even went as far to say that he ended negotiations because mayweather's camp didnt want to agree to a 24 day cut-off. But he never even acknowledged that Mayweather's camp countered his offer with a 14 day cut off. Honestly this fight is going to happen, but from the time that Pacquiao last fought, there wouldnt be enough time to properly promote the biggest boxing fight in history. But still Pacquiao's camp seems eager to go out of there way to mention mayweather or criticize his antics, whereas mayweather doesn't really have too, because hardcore boxing fans know why this fight didnt happen, its not because mayweather asked for o.t.

THE ONLY ONES THAT ARE CASTING A SHADOW OF DOUBT ON PACQUIAO's accomplishments are the dumb ass haters, gayweather nuthuggers. PACQUIAO can retire tomorrow and his legacy is far better than CHICKEN MAYWEATHER...for as many people who likes GAYWEATHER, there are far more people that hates him..shoot..KFC won't even endorse that CHICKEN ****....PACQUIAO is a legend...GAYWEATHER will always be in PACQUIAO's shadows...as far as how they both fought three different guys (dela hoya, hatton , marquez) pacquiao did it better and more convincingly...

Corrales / Castillo were in their prime, Barrera / Morales weren't.

De La Hoya / Hatton were leftovers. Do you realize that?

And Marquez arguably beat Manny, Floyd shut him out with skills.

Floyd rematched the guy he struggled against and won decisively, while Manny struggled AGAIN against Marquez in the rematch leaving doubts he'll ever beat an elite boxer. Look at his pattern of opponents after fighting Marquez.

Cotto was in prime and was a very dangerous fighter. Great timing, jab, good speed, power, angles and footwork.

At that point, and the Floyd at Oscar, Cotto would have had a chance to win.

I feel that Mosely is the only guy other than Pac to have a chance at winning.

However, that all depends on how Mosely is after this damn lay off.

I mean, I never saw Cotto as a threat to Floyd. Maybe it's just me
but Cotto style was tailor made for Floyd. No defense, open for
every big punch. I don't know why everyone thought Cotto was
a threat. In my opinion, Cotto was a work in progress and should
of took time to work with the right people that could bring out
his hidden potential. On top of that, Cotto is not a thinker in
the ring and the minute you take his punch away then he struggled
or lost. Floyd to me would of then and now be too smart for
Cotto. I wanted that fight to happen when both were undefeated
but I think more the less that the timing was off.
