Manny Pacquiao wins over Shane Mosley (Boring Fight)


The pound for pound king Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao wins via unanimous decision over the challenger Shane "Sugar" Mosley. As Pacquiao's winning streak continues to 14 straight wins and he retained WBO Welterweight World Title.

In the first round both boxers look and wait for chances and mistakes there opponent might do. Waiting for slow and wrong punches then counter punch them. As both fighters trying to feel each others aura and defense at the same time looking for openings to unleash there will of a knockout.

On the second round as both fighters collide once again. Pacquiao showed some aggressive moves while Mosley started to do his thing. Mosley was throwing power shots that somehow find it's path even if Pacquiao is defending himself. And Pacquiao would also love to trade punches and combo's to Mosley as the round continues. And Pacquiao would also land some huge body shots to Mosley.

But on the third round Manny Pacquiao unleashed two powerful punches that sent Shane Mosley to the canvas. Mosley got rocked and the referee was starting to count Shane Mosley. Seeing Mosley's face was like he could not believe what he got and was clueless what hit him. He was lying on the floor and trying to feel and struggling to get up. But Mosley Managed to get up before the 10Th count that the referee was counting. As soon as Mosley got up Pacquiao started to massacre Mosley leaving him running and avoiding the punches that Pacquiao is throwing. Mosley would also try to hold Pacquiao just to survive the last minute and seconds in the melting clock.

But on the late rounds Mosley would just use the ring in running and avoiding Pacquiao. When it was just a run and chase fight after that third round knockout Mosley suffered. Somehow Mosley's game plan in order to survive and reach 12th round was to avoid, hug and if a chance for a counter punch is available he would take it. But there will be just some instance that Mosley is being punished because of the combo's and quick punches that Pacquiao releases. Mosley could not predict those punches and end up being hit and stab in front of him.

In round 10 Kenny Bayless the referee in charge of the fight called a controversial knockout as Pacquiao slept int he floor. Pacquiao stood up and he was shocked why the referee was counting him but all he could do was smile and laugh as he wait for the count to be over. But on the end of the fight it was clear that Pacquiao was not being knocked down instead he slept and was pushed by Shane Mosley. And Kenny Bayless would asked his apologize for counting it as a knockdown.

MY REACTION TO THE FIGHT

The fight was quite good in the start of the round were in both fighters were so excited to face each other. But after that 3rd round TKO that Mosley received. The fight did not went into distance and also age matter's start to take place on the late rounds. Mosley was like melting the clock inside the ring with running and avoiding punches.

Pacquiao would find himself tired and exhausted in chasing and trying to corner Mosley. But it all went to round 12 with just a boring sport to watch. I admire Shane Mosley for answering the call and challenge on the sport that he is active at the moment. He was trying to defy his age and took the challenge. Not like Floyd Mayweather Jr. who is full of excuses and random issues to avoid the fight. And for the fans this is what we get and this is what we watch if some athlete's who are still capable and on there prime years refusing to the challenge. Athlete's who don't care about the sport and the fans that appreciated them. Pacquiao's next opponent should be Sergio Martinez or Floyd Mayweather Jr.
