* "What I have done in boxing, I am satisfied, I'm happy, and I'm not really pushing that fight hard. If that fight happens, that's good for me and the fans, because the fans are very eager to see that fight." -Manny Pacquiao (on a Mayweather fight

Money for 41

He is still undefeated and on top of the world!

I predicted that Shane Mosley would win the fight via KO and not through the scorecards and Floyd Mayweather Jr. would win by unanimous decision and I was kinda right in there; however I picked Sugar to win.. sad.

Well, it was all Mayweather's night! The win by unanimous decision had lifted his career stats to 41W-0L-25KOs while it handed Mosley his 6th lost with 46W-39KOs. Floyd's counter punches had done more damage than the Mosley's offensive strikes. Sugar played with Mayweather's forte; it was obvious, the outcome was very predictable after the 3rd round.

Congratulations Money!

Now, hopefully, the fight that everybody would like to see Pacquiao-Mayweather. Just get it on.

Sugar or Money?


With the Mayweather-Mosley fight just few days away predictions for the fight keeps on pouring; that's normal though. Both camps even predicted a knockout victory for their own fighter.

Well, I want to share my own.. duh.

Both camps predicted a KO victory right? Well that will happen, most likely, if both will play offense like both fighters will just put it on, street-fight style (not like the past Pacquiao-Clottey fight). However, I don't think it would be a match of offense-vs-offense. Why?

Both fighters would like to win, that's an undeniable fact.

First off, Floyd Mayweather, Jr. is undefeated and he would do anything to keep his record clean from defeat; and when I say anything, that includes coming up for a random blood-test for dope - Olympic style. Floyd will play defense on May 1, that's what I think, and most of his punches will be from counter-attacks. I hope he will not stay in a 'turtle-house' defense, like Clottey did against the Pacman, for there's a chance that Shane would unleash a fury of punches that may make him a human punching-bag. Oh well. If ever 'Money' wins it would be by unanimous decision.

Shane Mosley, on the other hand, would do anything to win this fight not only to prove that he is one of the best boxers in the world but even to strengthen his credibility to be in the Hall-of-Fame of boxing. Also, I think he would like to fight the pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao as well so he must win. Mosley may be 38 years old already but that doesn't mean he can't fight; he demolished Antonio Margarito the last time. He is the one I am feeling to win by KO if ever the match will not go the distance.

So, Money or Sugar? I'll go for sweetness himself, Shane Mosley.
