Mosley must hurt Pacquiao on the early rounds

Mosley’s power has declined in recent years. Although admittedly Mosley still have some pop in those fists, as evidenced in his second-round almost-annihilation of Floyd Mayweather last year. Mayweather survived the onslaught and made the necessary adjustments to win the rest of the rounds and eke out a win. Boxing analysts and casual fight fans are not giving Shane Mosley much of a chance they said that all advantages point to Pacquiao. He has speed, foot work and endurance.

Mosley’s only attributes is his granite chin and solid power. I would agree if you say they are even on the power department. But one must take note that it is Pacquiao’s speed and volume punching that causes the real damage. Another thing that goes almost unnoticed is Mosley’s physical advantages. Mosley stands at 5’9”, has the longer reach, and is the bigger guy. But Pacquiao has been demolishing bigger, taller, and presumably stronger guys since he went up against then WBC lightweight titleholder David Diaz that Mosley’s physical attributes have almost become a non-factor.


Pacquiao vs Mosley
What Mosley can do to win the fight – hurt Pacquiao in the early rounds and finish him off. Easier said than done, but if Mosley has to win the fight, he need not to let it go too long. Mosley is a fader. Pacquiao isn’t. Shane needs to do enough damage inside the first four rounds to at least take out Pacquiao’s wind and edge. I also think he can score a flash knockdown if he can catch Pacquiao with a perfectly timed punch. Not very likely to happen though.
