Mayweather thinks Mosley doesn’t have much left for Pacquiao
January 29th, 2011
By Chris Williams: Floyd Mayweather Jr. doesn’t like Shane Mosley’s chances against Manny Pacquiao in their little mega fight at the MGM Grand, in Las Vegas, Nevada on May 7th. Speaking with Ben Thompson at fighthype.com, Mayweather said “I don’t think Shane really has too much left at 39-years-old. From the outside looking in, people didn’t realize how tough of a fight it was with me, but was a tough fight for him. I think that was his last hurrah.”
Instead of retiring, Mosley chose to fight former WBC junior middleweight champion Sergio Mora last year in September, and ended up taking another beating but was given a tremendous break when the referees scored it a 12 round draw. Believe me, that fight wasn’t a draw. Mora dominated and schooled Mosley, but had to settle for a 12 round draw. That fight showed how hard it is to win a decision over a popular fighter like Mosley.
Mayweather’s win over Mosley makes it seem all the more strange that Pacquiao has picked out the shot looking Mosley to fight instead of someone more relevant Sergio Martinez, Paul Williams or Andre Berto. Those would have been great fights. The Mosley bout won’t be because of how shot he’s looking now.

WTF is E A I T H E R ??????
Mosley/Pacquiao needs to add Floyd as their “Ring Girl” since he’s too much of a PU$$Y!
Look, Shane has one of the best chins all time and can crack. With decent cardio, he will be competitive like Cotto was no doubt. But yes, he will most likely lose by UD.
If Mosely can train and condition himself, then he can be competitive the entire fight. But if he doesn’t go “EXTREME” in his training regimen, he will no fare so well.
Let’s see what Mosely does in training! If he is well conditioned…HE WINS! He will lose otherwise…
@devon. manny wont ko mosley eaither. but he will beat him up badly.
To the Kentukey Floyd Thsikin fans: You are all character assassins like the Mayweather family. You are all driven by hate and envy on Manny Pacquiao, the greatest boxer of all time.
people talk about pacman beaton the same fighters as floyd did but a lot fast that is because they r not the same fighters pacman go for the kill faster then floyd wait for it and if it dont came well he make then like stup in the ring lol
Mosley is one of the greatest boxer in history. I think he can KO Manny Pacquiao like he did to Antonio Margarito.My prediction is Mosley by KO on the 6th round.
u said why floyd dont ok mosley because floyd dont go for the kill dude if it cames then he get it but if not he just make them like stuped in the ring lol
if floyd thinks that mosely doesn’t have much left… why is it that he can’t KO mosley? it was a fixed fight.

The asian midget from some poor country is the biggest coward in boxing history coz he fights on PEDS.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
HAHAHAHA!!!! That midget is a whole lot richer then you, LOSER!!!!! LMAO!!!
@deezy14 = mayweather bloated and fought marquez at 2 weight divisions and cheated him in weight—-are you proud of that?
mayweather retires ‘coz he avoided cotto, margarito and clottey (and a rematch with ODLH), and pac beat them all dicisively.
mayweather bloated hatton and takes him 10 rounds to KO him, whereas pac needed only 2 rounds to KO him in his natural weight. LOL
Pbf iz better then pac man
Hate to agree, but yes Mosley is looking slower but still got Power. I think Emanuel should win by Decision. Mosley would win 5 years ago easy. However, Pacquiao will get his chin checked in this fight. Lets see if Emanuel can take it.

Chrisie Williams: “believe me, the fight wasn’t a draw.” – haha. are you saying that you are better than the referees? How many bouts have you refereed Chrisie?
Pacquiao chose Mosley because the loud-mouthed Marquez asked a lot of money and Andre Berto has very few followers, and your idol Floyd Mayweather is very busy beating women and guards.
It is funny how a scared person reacts. Mayweather is like a barking dog that does not bite. He would rather blabber his mouth than get into the ring with the midget from the Philippines. It is sad to see his fans who are still arguing how he would beat pacquiao when their idol is on vacation and would rather blabber his mouth through the internet calling pacquiao and asians with racial slurs than get into a real fight with pacquiao. Mayweather needs to grow some very big balls and get into the ring with pacquiao win or lose to end this debate. this is the only way for him to prove himself and make his fans happy (if he wins)
Complaining about catchweights, Blood testing blah blah blah…
As a Pacfan, I’m just glad that I don’t have to think of any excuse to discredit Pacquiao’s accomplishments.
To all haters, you can enroll at www. angermanagementonline. com LOL
@deezy .. pac can claim he was at disadvantage comin everytym as bloated at catchweight .. so which is bad? .. drained or bloated? .. d fact is managers/prmoters/boxers hav always acepted catchwt coz dey know its a square deal … its only d fans whor twistin it .. its about tym dis catchweight BS stops .. its d only excuse floyd fans hav left to aknwledge pac as an ATG fyter .. we want to floyd 2 lace up so itl be GOAT for pac
Why does anyone interview this woman beating chump? He’s too scared to get back in the ring and fight a man, so why even ask him what he thinks about ANYTHING?
Why did Floyd cheated Marquez on their fight? Just asking.
@ GOGO
I’ll let you have your opinion on all of that but tell us how long does Mayweathers lay-offs be since everyone cares about Shanes??? Nobody every mentions that about FLOYD…hmmm I wonder why???
@deezy not to mention eric came in drained for thier next 2 fights remember he offered pac a rematch but roach siad ne so eric went up to lose to raheem at this time that is his walk around weight so who steps in a year later after his loss to raheem> pac and roach now they accept the fight on one condition eric come back down in weight. Does any one see a familiar pattern here
Makes you wonder if there isn’t something to Manny and PEDS. Who would leave that much money to avoid a little blood test. People that fought Pac, went in weight drained. They had it worse that Pac would have had with the needle.
@deezy14……lets have a look at Floyd’s dodgy resume…
Genaro Hernandez (Was 32 when Floyd fought him, had alreaady retired once and still lasted 2 rounds longer against Floyd than he did against De La Hoya 3 years earlier. Was also his last fight)
)
Angel Manfredy (Good fighter, beat Gatti 11 months before fighting Floyd, but that was more than 12 years ago).
Diego Corrales (Big name,excellent fighter)
Carlos Hernandez (Handed Floyd his first knockdown and has since been beaten by a certain Bobby Pacquiao!)
Jose Luis Castillo (The only man to beat Floyd
DeMarcus Corley (Was 28-2-1 when he fought Floyd and comes up short EVERY time against top competition. The biggest name he beat was Bailey(avenged), beaten by Judah, Cotto and even Witter)
Henry Bruseles (Shouldn’t have even been in the same ring as Floyd)
Arturo Gatti (A warrior no doubt, but completely shot when Floyd fought him)
Sharmba Mitchell (Unlucky first time against the THE FEARED Tszyu, but destroyed in rematch. Biggest name he beat was Ndou or Tackie, says it all)
Zab Judah (A decent fight for Mayweather, but Tszyu, Spinks and even Baldomir had beat him already)
Carlos Baldomir (43-9-6 with a stunning 13KO’s when Floyd fought him over 4 years ago, seriously…43-9-6!!)
Oscar De La Hoya (Floyd’s biggest fight)
Ricky Hatton (Decent fighter, and yes…undefeated…at jr. welter)
Juan Manuel Marquez (A true legend!….who had been dragged up a stunning 3 weight classes for Floyd. Still went the distance though)
Shane Mosley (Had been out the ring for 15 months prior to the fight, and had struggled in the past against slick defensive boxers)
It’s pretty much ur standard undefeated fighters cherry-picked resume. I’m not best pleased with Pac’s next opponent, but lil’ Floyd is nowhere to be found.
Well, Junior, why don’t you fight Pacquiao?
Oh, right….
That’s funny, you suggest Manny fight anybody and they would say well Manny would beat him anyway. Prove it, Berto is young, has faster hands than Pac and he is undefeated. That is a good match up, more so than over the hill Mosley.
@ evil scotsman
You are gonna pay some serious sterling for a zombie film starring shane mosley. You fail.
Now that cbs will promote this garbage, we get more media sheep pactards to add to the mix. Please shane, do the impossible and put the boxing world right again, knock this clown out.
Martinez and Williams are middleweights you muppet! I would rather he fought Berto than Mosely but he would pummel him just the same!
