Floyd/Shane V Manny/Shane

First topic message reminder :

I know we've already got a thread about Manny v Shane but I can't be bothered to read 5 pages of people calling each other gay to see if this has been covered so here goes.

In general people seem left a little flat by Manny's performence, with his people either blaming Shane's tactics or a mysterious cramp.

Here I'm asking purely who put on the better show against Mosely out of Pacquiao and Mayweather. I think the man they fought was equal. Against Mayweather he looked very dry in the weigh in and against Manny he looked more comfortable at the weight but was a year older.

Of course Shane rocked Floyd whereas Manny decked Mosely, but people generally still seem more impressed by Mayweather, but depending on your trust of compubox the stats don't back that up.

It has Mayweather landing 208/477 (44%) against a Mosley who was coming at him early, and there for the taking for the rest of the night.

Manny on the other hand got 224/727 (31%) against a Mosley who was running for the vast majority.

Do vote (if I succesfully put a poll in) and feel free to leave a comment explaining why.

PS If you think anything anyone says in the thread is wummish you don't actually have to reply...

good.....You're being more civil these days.

that public school education has served you well

Both beat Mosley by a one-sided UD but I would argue that Mayweather beat a better (if still past his prime) and more confident version of Mosley than Paquaio did.
I'm not really sure how anyone could disagree.

Because they are WUM.

D4, you are so funny! Great thread.
Mayweather worked out an agressive Mosley pretty quick. Manny struggled and got his a$$ beat down to the canvas in the 10th.
Mayweather will school this catchweight clown.

For the reasons I gave above.

I'm not a wum.

if i was a young and upcoming boxer at the moment i would be tearing at the bit to get a fight with pac man or mayweather at the moment, i think mayweather is probably rusty as hell at the moment and has a lot of other things to worry about, and on the last performance pac man looks no where near as dangerous as he usuals does, maybe his heart isn't there as much (with the poltics and things). think the 2 p4p canidates atm are due a upset and now seems the idea time for that. would be very refreshing as well if it were to happen.

Why is it on ESB the votes are 85 to 62 in favour of Pacquiao, while on here it is 29 to 5 in favour of Mayweather.

A few more well placed punches by Mosley in the 2nd and Molsey wins that fight.

Mosley didn't even come close to upsetting the apple cart against Pacquiao.

Because of you're attitude to the matter, people get used to disagreeing with you which goes hand in hand with supporting Mayweather. I garauntee your existence on these boards hurts Manny's popularity.

Don't get me wrong, evreyone has the right to their opinion, and honestly this is mine. You don't grind my gears that much, D4, but I'm sure it's because of you that everyone sides with Mayweather around here.

Just my 2 cents
