shane mosley will be manny

ApricotSinner32 · 03-28-11, 02:20 PM

I think there's slight value at the current market price on mosley as I think manny is overrated but I think manny probably wipes the floor with shane. Shane can only win by knockout as he doesn't have the skills/stamina/output to out land manny through 12 rounds. I think mosley may be brain damaged after this fight. Poor guy is fighting just because he gotdivorced and his wife is taking him for everything he has... Shane by ko within 6 rounds or he has no chance.

How did that "kansas has the easiest road to championship" thread work out?

You are beyond clueless when it comes to sports.

Mosley has no chance of beating Pacquiao.

I second gates and nuts

I really see no way Mosley can win this fight. Manny won't give Shane a chance to even land a big shot. His offence is to relentless, he never stops throwing punches.

Flexin · 03-28-11, 06:20 PM

There is always a chance in a fight. I wouldn't count Mosley out at all. Mosley has the skill and power. His speed has slowed a bit over the years but he is still quick. He will have to deal with Manny's machine gun punches but I feel he can do it. If he comes in to the fight feeling good we will see an amazing fight now matter who wins.

If you're going to put money on it at those odds, Mosley is worth a small play. I'm looking forward to just watching, though. Manny is a special athlete.

Fukin spell properly.

Maxmillion · 03-28-11, 08:29 PM

shane is going to lose, he may have a moment or two like he did with money may but he loses, like 10 rounds to 2. Manny is a bit overrated as he has been matched very well, with the exception of the Cotto fight I have not been impressed with any of Manny's wins. Mayweather toys with Manny.

Manny is a better style matchup for Shane than Floyd was, but he still won't win. It might be a better fight than a lot of people think though.

There are reports of manny getting hurt sparring amir khan and that is focus is shit right now. Not sure if its just media stunt or the real thing this time you never know.

Ochocinco85mvp · 03-28-11, 11:08 PM

mosley has a chance, but not really. Pacman will pretty much dominate the fight IMO. Mosley has gone soft

stikymess · 03-28-11, 11:16 PM

Mosley at this point is way too slow to catch Manny. I see another one sided fight.

Philavanh · 03-28-11, 11:22 PM

Manny is going to dominate the whole fight...Shane has no chance of winning

Shane is going to get outworked and dropped late.

Grits n' Gravy · 04-01-11, 01:44 PM

shane is shot. floyd ended his career and he is just going for a final big payday. manny takes this easily. odds are inflated, but putting money on shane is like leaving ttwarrior alone in a room with a bag of cheetos and expecting them to still be intact when you return.

bobby heenan · 04-01-11, 01:47 PM

shane will be gassed out quick...manny will be moving in and out with his feet and throwing flurries from different angles....yawwwnn....

trust me....arum aint putting pac in with anyone who is an actual threat.....hes making money hand over fist on this guy without having to.....

if floyd were fighting a guy who is 0-1-1 in his last two fights there would be a huge outcry......the guy shane drew with in his last fight just got beat by bryan vera who is a b-/c level fighter

sugar shane has a great shot, hes got power and size ove manny.

i remember him solidly winning a round against mayweather too.

that would be the 1 round where he landed a punch. then floyd said "game on" and toyed with shane for the rest of the fight.

if anyone thinks shane wins this fight you likely think jj has beautiful fabio hair as well.

HauntingTheHoly · 04-06-11, 02:57 PM

It's not difficult to imagine Shane having KO'ed Mayweather in that second round, but it didn't happen. Then he appeared gassed before the fight was half over and it was obvious he missed his only opportunity to win. It'll be the same against Manny - Shane's got a shot for a KO early in the fight. The line on the fight is roughly correct, I'm not betting it.

donkdown · 04-06-11, 04:19 PM

Sugar Shane had trouble with Shaq!! No way he wins here!!

I think he still had a chance later. Yes he was slightly gassed but still had a chance. The question is can Mosley land a big shot like he did on Mayweather and can Manny handle it?

I think this could be an exciting fight. I'm a fan of both but I would like to so Mosley win this one.

The reason Shane was able to have that big second round is because Floyd had not yet "cracked his code" - hadn't gotten used to him yet. Once that happened, Shane could no longer find the defensive expert with his punches, and I really don't think he had any chance at all. Throw in what I said about him being gassed - by the sixth round his punches looked nothing like the first couple rounds - and I think it's fair to say the fight was over and the rest was a formality.

I do think this fight with Manny is more interesting b/c Manny is a "tough guy" just like Shane. Both fighters have ALWAYS been the stronger, tougher fighter in all their fights. The only time they lose is if they are outboxed. I do think Manny is a better boxer than Shane, and that may be the key. I could see Manny winning a tough fight or an easy fight. I could only see Shane winning by a very early KO.

Manny seems to be in another league right now. Even good boxers like Cotto have not been able to touch him. And if someone tries to stand up to him (Margarito, Hatton) they get murdered. Throw in the fact that he is really a 140 lbs fighter, and it's just unreal.

hankcream · 04-06-11, 08:20 PM

7 years ago I would have taken this bet, but not now Sugar Shane is like a 60 year old man at this point in his career.

Manny>Mayweather Jr.>Mosley

If you have showtime will you be able to watch the fight? Or will you still need to pay-per-view it?

Manaconda · 04-08-11, 12:44 AM

manny will win this in another brilliant display... Mosley will be lucky to catch one solid punch on the guy

robert_wrath · 04-08-11, 03:33 AM

Mosley is washed up just like De La Hoya. Face it, Manny has 2-3 more fights prior to retiring as the champ. Time has taken its toll, Shane's last shot for real glory has diminished.

cranzter · 04-09-11, 06:09 PM

I have always been very impressed with Manny. But right now I am watching the rerun of the Pacquiao Vs. Morales fight from 2005. Pacquiao is looking sloopy and not that strong. Makes me wonder is Mosley has a chance. Any input?

That is 6 years old. Watch the Margarito, Clottey, and even the De La Hoya fight. Manny is a different fighter.
