im expecting a match between pacman and mayweather and all of a sudeen i came across this article.

MANILA, Philippines – Welterweight star Shane Mosley has called out Manny Pacquiao following the Filipino’s flawless two-round demolition job of Ricky Hatton.

In an interview with ESPN’s Sports Center, Mosley (46-5, 39 KOs) said he was impressed by Pacquiao’s performance, and is very much looking forward to sharing the ring with him soon.

"I thought Manny Pacquiao did an excellent job of putting together … the right hook and that overhand left. I mean, that pretty much rocked Ricky Hatton every time it hit him," the gracious boxer from Pomona, California, said.

Asked if he deserves to get a shot at the current pound-for-pound king, Mosley pleaded his case.

“Why not [get a shot at Pacquiao]? I’m the welterweight champion of the world, the WBA super champion,” he stressed.

A former pound-for-pound king himself, Mosley reiterated his willingness to face top opposition. He stopped recognized welterweight champion Antonio Margarito in January to annex the WBA welterweight crown.

And his motivation in facing Pacquiao?

“I could be the first guy in history to win the pound-for-pound title twice. So let’s do it, let’s bring it on,” he said. - By Dino Maragay (Philstar News Service, Philippine News for the Filipino Global Community - philstar.com)

ok.. will be featuring Cotto, Mayweather, Marquez and Shane Mosley..hehehe

Miguel Cotto is really heavy fisted, Ill consider him scarier that Mosley

Who do you think should Paquiao face next, alot of people wants to see a Mayweather vs. Paquiao bout, but to my opinion, I think the most practical choice for Paquiao is to face Miguel Cotto.

Why? Because Cotto is the current WBO Welterweight Champion, and compared to Mayweather and Mosley, Cotto is the best fit for Manny basing on Physical statistics wise, their height and reach is almost the same, except for the weight, but which should not be a big problem since they can arrangement for a catchweight limit at around 143 or 144lbs.

Mosley and Mayweather may be too big for Manny, height wise, and reach wise... And take note that Manny doesn't have to beat Mayweather to prove he's the best.

By just beating Miguel Cotto, Manny will become the only fighter ever to capture seven championships in different divisions. Then that's a record Mayweather should beat...
