Mosley vs Pac predictions

I think maybe Mosley should take his time and not rush into things. Try and fight defensively for the first 2 or 3 rounds, punch sparingly and let Pac get too comfortable. Don't give him too many opportunities. Then turn up the volume and surprise him. I say this because when Pac fought Clottey, Clottey didn't throw many punches and so Pac wasn't expecting it when he finally did let his hands go. Clottey then landed almost at will and busted Pac's face up.

I don't see this happening however as its just not Mosley's style. Pac stoppage around 9 or 10.

On his way to getting KO'd

De la hoya quit. He knew he was shot and couldn't pull the trigger at all.

Pac wasn't going to KO Oscar. Pac could have continued to hit ODH at will and ODH would have been standing. Ref probably waives it off eventually and is a TKO, but no chance Pac even drops ODH (he has a hell of a chin).

Just saw this quote from Nazim Richardson on Boxingscene and its pretty much what I was trying to say with my post.

"Joshua Clottey really, to me, showed you a lot of openings with Manny
Pacquiao. Because Clottey was so defensive, a lot of times, when guy
covers up like that, it pulls a guy in to start punching more," said
Richardson.

"So then, they kind of start to abandon their defense," said Richardson.
"So that's why Clottey got those kinds of opportunities that he got. He
just didn't take full advantage of them. Shane has no option but to take
advantage of that."

kbyte maybe naz let the cat out of the bag on there fight plan.that plan needs a jab thats excellent that night.unless theres a big improvement in shane i dont think he executes.

Wouldn't surprise me if Mosley has Manny down early or hurts him.

..me neither..im expecting that.8-1 the price is right to bet shane providing you also bet the under..i cant see the fight going 11 n half rounds.

what are the odds that if mosley wins, mayweather will end up fighting pac?

Mayweather isn't counting on Mosley to win. He is just happy that bigger guys are landing shots on Pac, hoping little by little it gives him a better shot at winning.
Pac has taken shots from Cotto, Clottey, margarito, and tonight Mosley. Does Pac take the shots well? Yes. Can taking shots from bigger men take something out of you at some point? Yes. Floyd sees how marked up Pac looks after dominating fights against bigger men. He is hoping that enough fights and enough shots and Pac will lose just a little bit. A little bit can be the difference in a fight that should be relatively even (Pac vs Floyd).

Of course, Floyd doesn't realize he is slipping, little by little by sitting and aging.

I agree that Manny wasn't going to knock out De La Hoya. He was on his way to killing him. Methodical slaughters are the most dangerous types of beatings in the sport. As I've said, I know what it looks like to see a man get beat to death in a boxing ring. Cotto, Oscar D, Margorita, all could've lost their lives. These fights were allowed to go on way too long.

Because of Manny's size, it seems that the referees allow his fights to go on way too long. This is what disturbs me. Some people have appreciated Manny for the fighter he is. Some are still in denial. However, I hope Pac never has to end a man's life to prove his point. It won't be his fault. The official will be to blame.

Pacquiao TKO 9.

While Shane has the power and size to hurt him, he needs to finish him when he's in trouble. I think Manny will get a late round TKO or a lopsided UD victory.

I am calling for a TKO in 8. I think pac will land often and drop shane several times during this fight.

Its his speed. Mosley has lost several steps and pac is going to be just too fast. Mosley wont see any of the punches coming and this fight will be much like the ODH vs Pac fight with the difference that Mosley might be even more shot than ODH was causing the KO.

A genius is when you predict Sergio Mora over Vernon Forrest (1st fight). Of course, if I couple that with all the shitty predictions (with reasoned analysis) since then, I'm just a moron.
