    Pacquiao in 4 rounds.
  • Raw Dawgin' it
    PacMan no question. 6th.
  • SportsAndLady
    Definitely Pac...I'll say 6 as well.

    Pac easily, I'll go with 7th round. Y-town boy Kelly Pavlik on the undercard. Finally back after his drinking problem. I wish him well, but really annoyed with how his life turned once he became champ.
  • Hulk Smash
    Great undercard on this ppv. I'm buying this one and will be having some friends over for it tomorrow night.

    Mike Alavarado(29-0) vs Ray Narh(25-1)
    If either guy ever wants to be on the shortlist for a big fight then they must win this fight.

    Jorge Arce(56-6-2) vs Wilfredo Vazquez jr(20-0-1)
    Arce has always been exciting in the ring but may be outgunned in this one....................I'll be rooting for him anyway.

    Kelly Pavlik(36-2) vs Alfonso Lopez(21-0)
    Glad to Pavlik see getting back in the ring and with an opponent who is at least good on paper. I don't know anything about Lopez but Kelly can get himself right back in line for some good fights at 168 with a win.

    Pac/Mosley
    If Mosley lands a big shot on Pac the same way he did on Mayweather(2nd round) the fight will be over shortly afterwards. imo, that is pretty much the only chance Shane has at winning, he has the punch to get Manny out of there if he catches him with something hard but he is not going to outbox Manny.
    Referee Kenny Bayless will not allow Shane to take a severe beating from Manny, he will stop the fight if it starts getting lop-sided.

    Manny was in a wreck about an hour ago, should be good to go for the fight though.

    Anybody watching? This Pavlik fight is boring. Too much grappling instead of punching.
  • DA isn't having fun
    Ya I'm watching...this fight is boring...I'm gonna go outside to palmerfest

    I'm not at all impressed with Pavlik tonight.
  • iclfan2
    Ugly win. It doesn't help that the stream I'm watching is in Turkish so I have no idea what was going on besides what I could see.
  • ICEMAN59
    Anybody have a reliable stream . . . Veetle is not working for me any longer?
  • iclfan2
    If you have Sopcast I am watching one, but it is in a different language.
  • End of Line
    The stream I've been watching has been pretty reliable and it's in english.
  • SportsAndLady
    Pretty weak fight..Pac seemed afraid of the haymaker, Mosley just seemeed afraid in general
  • se-alum
    Very boring, but Pac is QUICK!!
  • killer_ewok
    Pacquiao-Mayweather has to happen.

    It has to.

    Boxing is dead without it.
  • hoops23
    I'm sorry, but boxing is dead anyway. When everybody is begging for 1 fight at 147, the sport has no drawing power.

    I love boxing and it's sad that the sport has become what is has, but it's the truth. Just not enough "big names".
  • Hulk Smash
    Pavlik did ok. Lopez came to win not be an opponent and showed a great chin, Pavlik was a little too much for him though. I'm not sure I would like Kelly's chances against guys like Kessler or Bute yet.

    Arce vs Vazquez was a GREAT fight!!!
    All action war, I don't know if he was behind on the cards going into the 12th but everyone in my living room thought he was and all of us were rooting for him. Great fight and great win for Arce.

    Time for Mosley to retire but it was pretty obvious that he intends on getting in the ring again. He will be a stepping stone for some youngster the next time he is in the ring.

    Based on everything that keeps happening with Mayweather I'm not expecting to see him in the ring again anytime soon, if ever.

    I would like to see Pacquiao fight Khan, Bradley or Victor Ortiz next.

    Yeah, it is...the biggest problem is there are no heavyweights. Pac-man is the most marketable boxer, and he is 145.

    I miss the days of Mike Tyson...still my favorite boxing video on youtube is:
