Forever Alone: Mosley Needs to Take Hold of The Title or Else…


Dragging Manny Pacquiao into the chasms of Shane Mosley’s list of knockout victims is just breathtaking to the former three-division legend who deals with his ace on the 7th of May, the big day which he makes one milestone of a crucial bid to dethrone the defending champion for his current WBO welterweight belt. Seems financially mouth-watering, considering it’s a paycheck worth more than a million bucks, courtesy of a huge chunk of ancillary earnings.

Is that pot of gold enough to spark that energy of a challenge drawing Shane Mosley to a mind-boggling upset of the favored boxing king? Is it ample to shake ground for the current pound for pound sensation?

One thing for sure, Sugar Shane Mosley really needs to halt Manny Pacquiao or he’s dead meat. That’s his lone and probably sure way into victory. This is the only way because Manny is just too nimble and sleek for Mosley.

Pundits suggest the Sugarman has a serious chance of beating the Pacman owing to his workmanlike versatility. Apart from the fact that he is just as comfy as an easy welterweight, he doesn’t even have weight problems, and no extra pounds t take out of his flab, and no sweat at all.
But even if he’s from California, no one will definitely bail the American out if he can’t pull off the trigger in this Russian roulette of boxing.

If Sugar Shane Mosley would be able to defeat the Saranggani puncher from the Philippines, certainly, he’ll be larger than life when he wins the belt once and for all. But as long as he doesn’t have the strength, endurance, and power to hold it up against Manny Pacquiao, he’ll be mashed potatoes before the 12-round bout ends.

Most spectators have their own inkling of who will win, better than not, there’s nothing to lock horns about at this time of the week. Saturday is near and all you have to do is clear out the signal off your cable tvs or subscribe to the most convenient pay per views, and just go on and enjoy the rest of the show on May 7.

Sugar Shane Mosley’s Twitter Banter @congMP, Just Nasty at Earshot

Pacquiao vs Mosley - Come May 7 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas the three-division world champion "Sugar" Shane Mosley will lock horns and boxing gloves in a fistfight of a lifetime with Manny Pacquiao for the WBO Welterweight Championship. According to Bodog Sportsbook, Manny "Pac Man" Pacquiao is a fan magnet as of the moment and is currently listed at -625 (which means that you should need to bet $625.00 to win $100.00 on Pacquiao), while Shane Mosley holds the underdog role and would pay a bettor $425.00 on a $100.00 wager. Sweet cash! Apart from the oddsmakers, nearly every boxing expert and fan across the globe has Pacquiao winning this fight while relying on sheer boxing skills alone. Even President Barack Obama will be giving thumbs up for Manny and had him and his wife visit the White House to talk about shooting hoops and boxing. So with everyone from the oddsmakers to the leader of the free world backing "Pac Man", does Mosley have any shot in this fight? Think hard. It’s worth it.

Morris East from the Philippines Says Pacquiao Still Has the Edge

Taking a glance at the Pacquiao vs Mosley fight, one-time champion boxer of the world Morris East is still determined that Manny Pacquiao will eventually win in the May 7 fight between the two betted fighters, and the once-champion believed that the prime, 39-year old Pomona-native Sugar Shane Mosley is no longer that terrible threat he used to be. Well, Morris East was born in Olongapo City in the Philippines, and that’s just a surprise. He believes strongly that the World Boxing Organization welterweight fist sight between Manny Pacquiao and Sugar Shane Mosley would be good enough to be dubbed a close call, but gives the cutting edge straight to Pacquiao mainly because of their age gap. Pacquiao in his thirties, and Mosley almost forty, hours from having a receding hairline. And oh, before I forget, Manny Pacquiao is actually seven years younger than Mosley.

“It’s going to be a tough fight, though. But from my point of view, I feel it’s going to be Pacman,” the 36-year-old former World Boxing Association light welterweight said in one interview. East has a strong hunch that Mosley has declined in graded performance over time, through the years, which was proven by his lackluster fights two boxing seasons ago against Sergio Mora and Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Mosley, as you can remember lost his glory to Mayweather Jr via unanimous decision last May and buckled up with Mora just four months later.

“Mosley has slowed down a bit. He’s not the same compared to his younger years,” said East of the three division world title holder. East also ponders on the fact that Mosley will have the edge over the fight if ever he will take the fight immediately to his 32-year old ring match in the earlier rounds. He also said that if only Mosley would keep up with his opponent’s feat and to get to start out on the round first, that way he’ll have more advantage. Well said, don’t you think?

Well, if you’re missing something, East is one of the previous world champions from the Philippines. In the past, he bagged the WBA light welterweight belt after beating Japanese boxer Akinobu Hiranaka in 1992, Tokyo, Japan.

One year later, he lost the belt to Argentine Juan Martin Coggi in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
