Breaking down Pacquiao versus Mosley

When two surefire hall-of-famers meet in the ring, there is a huge possibility that it will be a tremendous match, even if the combatants are not necessarily at their primes.

Manny Pacquiao has not looked back since beating Erik Morales in their second fight. Everyone who tried defeat him failed, some failed more miserably than others. Shane Mosley is the next contender and at an advanced aged of 39, he will finally get a shot at the world’s best fighter.

For Pacquiao, the key to this fight is to stay on his feet. There is no possible way for Mosley to win unless he hurts Pacquiao badly. He will need either a knockout or multiple knockdowns to win a decision. Pacquiao’s punch output is on a league of its own and Mosley won’t be able to come near that. Pacquiao will win rounds easily as long as he does not get hurt.

With Mosley’s reach advantage, Pacquiao needs to find the perfect distance; the spot where he will still be able to connect with his punches but far enough to get the chance to evade Mosley’s attacks. He does not need to do anything different on offense. Pop Mosley with lead lefts, attack him to the head and body then move to the side when he throws a counter, and catch him with right hooks every time he tries to attack.

For Mosley, he will need to connect with something substantial and, if you ask me, the only punch in his arsenal that can cause trouble for Pacquiao is the lead right hand. If you ask the best boxing trainers in the world how to fight a left-hander, they will all tell you to concentrate on lead rights. If he catches Pacquiao napping, Mosley has the power to hurt him. The power of a fighter is the last attribute to go for older fighters and Mosley still has the power to hurt anyone in the welterweight division.

Freddie Roach told Pacquiao that they will need to stay in the outside for the first few rounds as this was where Mosley will be at his most dangerous. However, I highly doubt that Pacquiao will heed that call. As soon as Mosley connects with a pretty good punch, Pacquiao will want to get it back as soon as possible.

I see Pacquiao dictating the tempo of the fight from the start. Mosley will have his moments but Pacquiao’s speed will be to much for him. Pacquiao will dominate the early rounds and by the middle rounds, you will see a drop in Mosley’s punch output.

Pacquiao will step on the gas pedal around the sixth round and Mosley will be left behind. Pacquiao will connect with a hard right hook follow by two lefts to knock down Mosley in the eighth round. Mosley will get up but Pacquiao will finish him off with another flurry. Referee Kenny Bayless will call a halt to the bout if Naazim Richardson does not beat him to it.

I have Pacquiao winning by eighth round TKO.

“Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto have reached an agreement to fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Saturday, Nov. 14,” said Top Rank Chief Executive Officer Bob Arum. Top Rank is currently working on a major media tour to commence immediately following Labor Day weekend. Details will be announced in the near future.

Pacquiao (49-3-2, 37 KOs), of General Santos City, Philippines, has won six world titles in as many different weight divisions ranging from 112 to 140 pounds. His performance in 2008 was described as “Henry Armstrongesque” as he won world titles at 130 and 135 pounds with victories over Juan Manuel Marquez and David Diaz, respectively, and knocked out Oscar De La Hoya at 147 pounds to complete the trifecta. The winning streak continued in 2009 when he won another world title in a new weight division, dealing defending junior welterweight champion Ricky Hatton a second-round knockout in May at MGM Grand.

Cotto (34-1, 27 KOs), from Caguas, Puerto Rico, has held a world title every year since 2004. Puerto Rico’s most exciting fighter, Cotto held the World Boxing Organization (WBO) junior welterweight crown from 2004-2006. He successfully defended it six times before vacating it to capture the World Boxing Association (WBA) welterweight title at the end of 2006, a title he held for nearly as long. He won his second welterweight title earlier this year as he knocked out Michael Jennings in the fifth round at Madison Square Garden to become the WBO Welterweight Champion. Notable victories on Cotto’s belt include Sugar Shane Mosley, Zab Judah, Joshua Clottey, Pauli Malinaggi and Demarcus Corley.
