    This should be called what it is....


    The Biggest Heist ever in Las Vegas. Manny and Shane just went in for a exhibition fight

    People saying Mayweather would beat pac-man....bull****.

    This wasn't the real Manny.

    This was a friendly big name money making fight.

    Don't fool yourselves....if it was Manny and Mayweather...there wouldn't be handshakes after every round.

    Did you see that 360 special? Mosley was signing memorabilia in a small room and Manny came in before Mosley finished. And they acted like buddies signing stuff together. This was a day or two before the fight.

    Yup, sad to imagine but nothing else explains the lack of a "fight" in either of them. That wasn't Mosley at his best, even at this age, and it sure as hell wasn't Pacquaio's best. Sure Mosley was blocking well and keeping the distance, but on a regular night Pacquaio would've taken advantage of the angles, the speed and the huge open spot where Mosley hung his dead right arm not blocking and not using it to throw anything.

    Like RoxSquad said, too much hugging and kissing. They tapped up every time they got separated from their hugging, tapped up after the end of every round except the one where Manny got pushed/knocked down. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much "sugar" in this much. Paychecks for everyone.

    I have no clue where this would put the Pacquaio v. Mayweather issue, I know Mayweather is not stupid enough to think THAT was Pacquaio.

    I guess I'll spend this left over 50 bucks from not spending on the PPV and use the money to buy the Rocky Balboa box set, LOL...

    That was the equivalent of two guys arguing over who would pay for the bar tab.

    LOL. Is this the first time you saw Manny fighting? Maybe you should take a look at his last fight against someone who he isn't friendly with. Even though he gave that guy mercy at the end.

    He was friendly with Hatton too and destroyed him. They were even playing darts together before the fight.

    Exactly.

    Hopefully this makes Floyd think he can beat Manny.

    I watched all the 24/7's for that fight and never saw that. Mayweather Sr. was just talking **** about Pac the whole time.

    Hopefully after seeing this fight it will finally lure Gayweather out of his hiding cell.

    I dont think it was in a 24/7. It might've been in an Elie Seckback piece or some youtube vid.
