The fight day of Manny Pacquiao and Shane Mosley is very fast approaching. It's a holy week now in the Philippines where Manny Pacquiao came from, noting that Philippines is the only Catholic nation in Asia. And probably, Manny Pacquiao is currently at rest now observing the important celebration of his religion while Mosley I think is still busy training and preparing for the showdown.
It has been two weeks before the fight. So far, according to the revelation of Bob Arum the owner of the Top Rank promotion promoting the Manny Pacquiao versus Shane Mosley fight, Manny Pacquiao is in good shape and is already good and ready to fight Shane. However, the major TVs in the Philippines is still silent about it and we don't know yet what will be the expectation of the Pacquiao team.
However, as a fan and fellow country man of Pacquiao, I believe and confident that Manny Pacquiao will win and the crown will remain with him. The fight will interesting considering that Shane Mosley even if he is already in his decline is still fast and strong.
The Pacquiao team will win the fight not because the Pacman is strong but because their strategies are best and effective. You see, Manny Pacquiao everytime he fights in the ring is mastering multiple of strategies that work best on his opponents. Since every opponents has his own mannerism, position, physical capabilities and advantages, and other factors, then the Pacman team always came up with different tactics.
Actually, I love the strategy of Pacquaiao where in he ducks yet his left hand flew into the face of his opponent.
The only thing that I didn't like in Pacman style is the way he allow his opponent to punch him in the body just to excite the people watching. It's not good. He's just giving his opponent the time and the chance to defeat him. I noticed it not only once but everytime he has the fight.
I understand that he wants his fans to enjoy his fight. But doing this is his disadvantage. And I know, Mosley is already studying this and he already has a thing to do in the ring if ever Manny will do this again to him.
The only thing that I have seen in my vision is that Mosley's strategies are not so good for Pacquiao in the sense that Pacquiao is playing different movements everytime he steps on the ring. Except of course of those thing I mentioned above.
So, what Mosley can do on the fight night is to wait for Pacquiao to do careless acts like what he did before. If ever Pacquiao will be careful at this time, then there will be no chance for Mosley to win.
Of course I know, Mosley is strong. You already have seen what happened to Mayweather on the early rounds. If Mosley is as good as Pacquiao during the Mayweather fight, he already had put Mayweather on the canvas during the time when Mayweather felt the hurt of the punch of Mosley.
But fighting Pacman is not the worst thing Mosley did even if he will lost on this fight considering that Mosley will be earning money too.
It might be true that Pacquiao has bigger purse than him but millions of dollars is still huge. Anyone who will fight Pacquiao will really earn not just Filipino followings but also money from the fight. That is the thing.
