    must be the first completely shot fighter to put on a more dominating performance on another guy than the current p4p King.

    Roach said a year ago that Shane was too good and that the fight would have to be at 142/143. Theres your answer.

    Shane is well past his best. He's slowed down considerably, his reflexes are gone. All he has is his bravado, a hard looping right and a very good chin. Not exactly what it takes to beat Pacquiao.

    BECAUSE WE ALL SAW SHANE'S LAST 2 FIGHTS THAT'S WHY!!!

    What are you fucking blind? Shane was getting caught with big wide shots from slow-ass Mora. He was gassed out and stumbling around the ring toward the middle of the fight with his mouth wide open gasping for air against both Floyd and Mora, and his punches have nothing on them anymore. Even when it looks like he's swinging fast and hard you can look at the punches and see they don't have anything on them. Look at these highlights from his last fight and tell me you still think Shane has a chance.

    Only a top drawer can demand Oympic style drug testing.

    And Pacquiao will get through every demand he has now that Mosley has exhausted all other options.

    Pacquiao wants to defend his 154 pound title in a 147 pound fight, he´ll do it.

    Because Mosley isn't one himself and has no stamina to boot.

    Pac is fighting Floyd's leftovers again. Is anyone surprised?

    Shane's only chance is an early ko! he has to go in there looking to hurt Pacquiao early or get Kod himself.

    I still think that Shane is dangerous in the first 2-3 rounds. Against Manny he'll have his chance early because given his age I doubt that Manny will have too much respect for him.

    I think they will engage early and if Shane can't hurt Manny he'll get stopped early.

    The reaon the fight won't go long is because of Nazeem Richardson. This is not Garcia with Margarito. Richardson won't let Shane take too much punishment.

    Shane is a proud fighter but as old as he is I think Richardson will have a short leash when Manny starts to batter him.

    The only thing Shane has over Manny at this point is physical strength. He'll have to try to get Pac against the ropes and mug him. Clinch as often as possible and grind away. Basically fight Ruizesque. He might be able to at least make it uncomfortable for Pacquiao.

    but he has a small window of opportunity to pull that off. The more the fight goes the more tire he will get. He has to get it done early or he'll get killed early.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    In a recent boxingscene interview with Jeff Mayweather,...

    Mosley’s rebuttal to Pacquiao…
    “Even with this fight being made, with Manny and Shane, Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach demanded that Shane do random testing. Shane said he would do random testing if [Pacquiao] did random testing. All of a sudden, random testing didn’t exist anymore. What’s up with that? They demanded that this guy do it but they didn’t want to do it. That’s crazy. I read that in an article my friend put on Facebook but the issue disappeared once Shane wanted to match their demands.â€￾

    Mora isnt slow. He hand speed has always been slightly above average. Very sneaky. Definately not slow.

    Wow. If that's true I'd have to say it's very telling.

    If it's true, then PAC is definitely juicing. In which case I hope Shane beats the shit out of him.

    I hope that's not true but at the same time Jeff's always been a cool straight up character though,so it might be.

    Shane's too brave for his own good. I hope his corner is merciful and stops the fight early in order to prevent serious brain injuries.

    Shane will be by far the hardest puncher Manny has ever faced. We'll see what happens if Shane lands the kind of shot he landed on Floyd.

    I'm getting odds of 15-1 on Shane by KO. FIFTEEN TO ONE.

    I'll be taking this bet, covered with the straddle of Manny to win.

    EDIT, Im also getting better than even on Manny by both decision and stoppage elsewhere. These are gimme odds.:crafty:
