Pacquiao Metes Out 12Round Punishment!

Manny Pacquiao came to fight.
Shane Mosley, evidently, came to run.

After a stinging third round knockdown, Shane "Sugar" Mosley spent the next 9 rounds running, dancing and sidestepping around the ring, all in a bid to avoid Manny Pacquiao's blazing fists.


In the 10th round, Mosley was simply trying to survive when he pushed Manny Pacquiao to the ground. Referee Kenny Bayless, who will never hear the ned of this incident, mistakenly ruled it a knockdown. Still, the scorecards of 2 judges showed that he won all the rounds, despite the "knockdown".

There is simply not enough things to discuss about the fight. Manny Pacquiao was his usual aggressive, brilliant self. Shane Mosley was nowhere near, preferring to survive than to fight.

By the last 2 rounds of the fight, the crowd was switching back and forth from chanting "Knock him out" and from booing Mosley.

The official scores read as 120-108, 120-107 and 119-108.
