Action star Seagal picks Pacquiao to stop Mosley

By Chris Williams: Photo credit Chris Farina/Top Rank – 58-year-old American action star Steven Seagal is predicting that Manny Pacquiao wills top Shane Mosley by the 3rd round on May 7th in their fight at the MGM Grand, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Seagal, one of the biggest action stars in the 90s, said this in an interview at Abs-Cbn- News: “He [Pacquiao] will [beat] Mosley by the 3rd round. I’ll always bet for him. He’s my brother.”

An overwhelming amount of people are picking Pacquiao to win this fight, much more than some of his recent mismatch fights against struggling fighters. It could be that fans have bothered to take a lot at Mosley’s last two fights against Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Sergio Mora and have come to the conclusion that Mosley is utterly shot and has no chance in that fight. Obviously, Pacquiao, his promoter Bob Arum and trainer Freddie Roach, are hoping fans do bother to pay out the $54.99 to watch this fight on pay-per-view despite the one-sided odds.

The undercard has a number of decent match-ups with Wilfredo Vazquez Jr vs. Jorge Arce, Humberto Soto vs. Urbano Antillon, Kelly Pavlik vs. TBA, Rock Allen vs. TBA, Jose Benavidez vs. TBA, and Mike Lee vs. TBA. However, it’s highly unlikely that boxing fans will care much about any of the undercard fights because there isn’t one that really grabs you on this card. It’s basically going to come down to whether you want to pay the $55 to watch Pacquiao destroy an old Mosley. If that floats your boat, you’ll dump the cash on the fight. If apparent mismatches aren’t your bag, then you might want to save your money and wait to see someone a little more interesting when Pacquiao is finally matched against someone that has a good chance of beating him.

    Really it is hard to accept an athlete from third world country like the Philippines will be much popular that everybody can imagine. And that’s why accusations from others become paranoea, very hard to accept!
    On my opinion PED issue is the only tool other party have enable to tarnish the current popularity of Manny Pacquiao.
    The United States of America is not an ordinary country and the technology to detect enhancement drug user is so easy yet some of you guys criticized your own testing agency, it’s too shameful!!!

    Just to elucidate how the human body works.Bones do not grow, including the cranium, in size once a person had passed 18-25 years of age.
    The thickness of the bone may increase but not in length, even if your bones had ossified, only if a person has too much growth hormone in their body. This is a disorder called “ACROMEGALY”.
    Now, if you’re refering about anabolic steroids, as the name implies—anabolic is for building. Anabolic steroids help build/increase myofilaments ( muscle proteins);Thus,increasing
    muscle size ( hypertrohy is its medical term ).

    If Pacman is really taking roids…will your Pres.Obama wish to invite him in White House? Pres. Obama really appreciate Pacman for his performance in boxing as well as a very good person. Anyway,both Pacman and Floyd Jr are famous nowadays. Imagine Pacman meets Pres. Obama and Floyd meets the highly distinguished Judge in court. It’s the same right?Hahahahahahaha!

  • F4iLaPiNoS says:

    congressman phooquiao has made his head so big that its about to drop to hes shoulder if he keeps takinig roids look at this picture is so ovious..

    no one can deny this fact the head is growin like a pumpkin guess why…

  • Pisot Ka! says:

    Can’t you see how famous and incredible Pacman is? Steven Seagal is a real Martial Art expert as an Aikido master with additional commando self defense. Seagal even trained Pacman secretly on how to attack in different angles. Can’t you see in his previous fights?lol
    Pacman is now in white house with Pres. Obama while Floyd Jr is in court facing his trial. What’s the difference? lol

    It will be great great if Bob Arum would allow Pacquiao to fight a real champion or contender. Bob Arum always cherry picking for Pacquiao.

  • Peter Marinelo says:

    Congressman Pacquiao has made the Executive Decision that Shane Mosley is Marked For Death.

  • Peter Marinelo says:

    @ Rusty Belt,

    Mosley better summon the Fire Down Below otherwise Pacquiao might leave him Half Past Dead.

  • Gard says:

    Mismatch? If there is a mismatch,it is in favor of Mosley….he is bigger. Other than that,a Pacquiao win will just show that he is good.JMM and Pacquiao have almost the same stature.Do you think JMM have a chance of winning against Mosley?NOPE.

  • Rust Belt says:

  • Harry says:

    Pacman will smash up mosley in 7 rounds and it going to be a bad beating that will put an end to sugar shane mosley.

  • Peter Marinelo says:

    Steven Seagal has stepped on deadly ground and held the boxing world under siege when he declared that Pacquiao is above the law and hard to kill.

  • Pete says:

    Its not that anyone thinks Mosley is rubbish – it’s just Pacquiao is so damn good.

    It’s not like Mosley is at the peak of his powers these days is it?

  • Carmelo's coming to the Knicks says:

    People think Mosley’s that easy, He’s fought Winky2x, Forrest2x, Oscar2x, Vargas2x, Floyd, a undefeated Cotto, and he he knocked out Margarito. He may have lost some of those but he’s been around the block. Don’t ever count a Hall Of Famer out. It’s going to be an awesome fight.

  • UrSuperHero says:

    TBA love thoses, im buying staight away.. segal wouldnt know sheit from clay . . mosleys never been stopped and wont be stopped in 3rnds .. il give segal 20-1 that mosley gets stopped in 3 .

  • jonnyl says:

    no way pac stops mosely by the third round thats just crazy. pac does not have the power to do that. if he does stop mosely it will be by late round stoppage by overwhelming mosely but i doubt pac will stop him cuz mosely has a rock solid chin and has not been put down by much bigger fighters than pac

  • Lou says:

    I pick Pac to stop Mosley in about 9 rounds not 3 Steve.
