I gotta be honest. The pattern started with Morales after the Raheem fight even though the rematch was still somewhat necessary. He catces these guys just at the right time when they are coming off unimpressive performances. It doesn't take a genius to figure this out.
The Barrera rematch - Barrera had just came off a war against JMM and lost.
The JMM rematch - This is the only guy who you can honestly say was at thet op of his game that Pac has fought in the last few years
David Diaz - A total gimmie fight for Pac. Struggled with a nobody with a knockoutless record on the undercard of JMM-Pac 2.
Oscar - Got busted up by a non puncher in Steve Forbes with the cheek bone thing
Hatton - He destroyed Malinaggi and all that, but what about the time he nearly got KOd by Lazcano
Cotto - Barely survived against a low intensity fighter in Clottey
Clottey - What was the point in this fight?
Margarito - I can actually understand this fight and wasn't all that mad with it, just the aspect of the title even though I didn't like the way Margarito looked against Garcia
Mosley - Coming off two horrible performances.
And another thing that needs to be touched on too, is the fact that even though this fight with Mosley isn't at a catch weight, it's gonna be at 147 which in reality makes the fight less competitive in my view because Mosley last fought at 154 against Mora.
It seems like Pacquiao just catches guys at the right time. He could've put all this criticism to bed if he just sat idle for a couple months and await the winner of the Bradley-Alexander fight since their excuse was that Berto is unproven (which he is) and JMM is too small or priced himself out or whatever.
And even though Mosley might beat JMM due to the size factor, that don't change the fact he's still not a tougher fight for Pacquiao like Merchant and the rest of Pacquiao's blind fans are letting on like. His jab and foot work has always been garbage and he's lost to every boxer he's faced except for the first Oscar fight. Pacquiao just fought Margarito and let him come in at 152 so why can't he let Mosley come in like that too? Pacquiao deserves all this heat he is getting even though it seems tiring to get on this site and see the forums are filled with this very topic. Floyd shouldn't have anything to do with Pacquiao's choice of opponents now because there are still top guys out there for Manny to fight.
