The bell will toll in memory of the passing of Sir Henry Cooper and a minute's silence will be observed when Manny Pacquiao and Shane Mosley step into the ring at the MGM Grand on Saturday night, promoter Bob Arum told Telegraph Sport on Tuesday.

I forgot about this fight. And I'll have the night off. Woop.

I expect Pacman to win just for the false hope of a matchup with Mayweather.

Manny's gonna beat Shane half to death. Also sucks for Mosley that he'll almost be fighting for free being that his ex is getting almost his entire purse.

Which is why you can never underestimate the value of a good lawyer.

 

[johnny316]

even against mosley in his prime manny wins the fight 10 times out of 10 lol

will watch but do not share anywhere near same level of excitement compared to haye vs. wlad klit coming up in july.. cbs fight camp 360 did a poor job of hyping the fight compared to hbo 24/7 standards but still here we have just another mis-match like manny's past few opponents

 

[mr. jizz]

Pacquiao is gonna destroy Mosley.

 

[tartanterrier]

Pacquiao is a legend so he is going to win

14-0 in Pac Man's favor. Pound for pound maybe the best on the planet.

 

[TheAdmiral]

Yeah, I don't think there were any votes for Margarito either

Manny is a little mufucka but he could knock my ass out.


I see that "The Ghost" Kelly Pavlik on the undercard. I know he was in treatment for alcoholism but he's out now. Odd considering he was a main draw for so long.

 

[squallumz]

very one sided. unusual!

go manny!

 

[Tittyman5000]

Pac 4 sure!

 

[zdenka]

Can Manny Pacquiao defeat Bin Laden (when he was alive) in a jungle fight... no weapons allowed?

 

[TheAdmiral]

Osama was 6'4" so he definitely had the reach advantage

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

Manny could get gangster with it though and punch someone in the nards and they would struggle walking normal ever again.


But in toe-to-toe, I suppose you could be right but I'd bet on Pac.
