I think Manny is now above Mayweather in the p4p ratings (in my p4p ratings at least).

I think Manny will smash Mosley and give him a real severe beating from about 3 rounds onwards, much like he did against Magarito

I think Mosley is not underserving of the shot

Firstly I'd say credit to Mosley, the guy is already a legend and would fight anyone they put infront of him.

But sadly, I think Pacquiao will stop him between 6 and 9. Mosley won't live with him beyond that.
Pacquiao definitely defeats people more convincingly than mayweather if it's a "fighting" performance you wanna see with cuts, bruises, etc etc but if it's a boxing masterclass your judging it on then mayweather schools everyone!

My preference is still Mayweather and although I can appreciate that pacman is dynamite I will still rate mayweather as the main man until the two meet....... If they do!

Which in & of itself is amazing when you think about it, seeing as his team are all over everywhere going on about the twelve protein shakes a day & the 7000 calorie diet...
Manny has to drop weight to make Welter, there is no doubt about that! He probably enters camp about 10lbs above Welterweight limit!

He can make 140lbs, no doubt about it!

All the talk about twelve Protein shakes a day or whatever, is all exaggerated! I mean, who has that much a day? No one!

But who else is manny pacquiao?? Lol.

There's a book out recently about manny that claims that his height has increased by 2" since he turned pro at 16. The book says that he had a late growth spurt after he finally could afford the lifestyle to eat healthily etc. That to me gives a reason why it's more likely that he couldv risen threw the weights drug free!

Pacquiao is a machine. Hope mayweather fights him and takes him out tho.

I don't see Manny stopping Shane at all, he's as durable as they come. What I do see is a wide UD a la Mayweather fight.

time will tell but i think this might be the last we see of Sugar Shane! (in the ring)

Personally think Berto wouldve been the right choice.

I don't mind this fight, as Manny's been on a stonking run. But I would probably say this fight's only redeeming feature is whether Manny stops Shane.

Manny wide UD for me.

i was a small 18 year old when i turned pro i was around 5ft 2in over the past 2 years ive grew 5n half 6 inches in height http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer . so i can see how pacquiao says hes grew. i dont reckon he's took any PED's i just think alex ariza his strength and conditioning coach has done a top job with him and had him on a good clean bulking diet as he's been moving up in weight divisions
