Pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao has settled to fight Shane Mosley this May 7, 2011 at MGM Grand Las Vegas and his decision has created a controversy over the globe not just by boxing fans but of everybody. This also happens during the Clottey and Margarito fight where in the fans had a boycott.
Would you agree that this Mosley-Pacquiao Fight is a mismatch? Many criticisms are going around like Shane is too old to fight versus Pacquiao. Others said that Mosley did not do any good in his last couple of fights and still others just plainly said they do not like the idea of him fighting the eight division world champion. Berto or Marquez are two options for the the fans to fight against Pacquiao even both have uncertainties.
Why pacquiao's next opponent is Shane Mosley is the question now of fans. When is the Mayweather-Pacquiao Fight?
Pacquiao has a very big edge if Berto or Marquez is chosen. Matching Pacquiao would push Marquezt to go up two more divisions. Track record wise, Andre Berto has a lot to prove.
Top Rank and Bob Arum had chosen Mosley because of financial sense, critics said. Mosley and Pacquaio would sell the most pay per views. But in terms of pay per view Pacquiao doesn’t need a really big name opponent just to sell it. In fact he managed to sell 700 000 buys during his fight with non entity Joshua Clottey.
Quiet true lame justification. the link of Mosley to Floyd Mayweather is they said the real reason why he is chosen over others.
Mayweather has remained the pound for pound best fighter in the world for others even he had been resting for some time already. Some Top rank boxing list has Mayweather as number one and some has Pacquiao with Sergio Martinez in the second spot.
The title as the number one pound for pound fighter in the world will be given to Pacquiao if he will beat Mosley impressively than Floyd did.After all is said and done, let's expect for a Pacquiao-Mayweather Fight. There are only two options for Mayweather to regain the title, the first one is to face Pacquiao in the ring and the second one is that he must successively win over Pacquiao's former opponents.
