Of course, Manny won. That is already a given. Many people, especially in the Philippines, would not be willing to accept any other scenario. What we didn't expect is the fear that we saw in the eyes of Shane Mosley, who after being knocked down by PacMan in the third round, avoided Manny Pacquiao like the plague. Some parties are speculating that Mosley during the fight, suddenly developed a rare sickness which previously manifested its symptoms to Mexican boxers. That rare sickness is called Pacman-o-phobia, or the fear of Manny Pacquiao. What do you think?

I had fun reading your post..it is definitely intuitive on your part. Personally, I feel elated that Manny Pacquiao won..again! What Mosley exhibited during his fight with Manny is beyond me..perhaps his main goal from round three onwards is to remain standing all throughout the match.
I admit that I was kind of disappointed. I religiously followed the fight, expecting for an exciting match. What I got was frustration on Mosley's performance.
Anyway, our fellow kababayan won. That is more than enough reason for us to be happy of the outcome.

I think mexican boxers are some of the least fearful fighters there are ...
Can't deny Pacquiao beat one or two fair and square, but also one or two fights against mexican boxers were clearly given to Manny.
Pacquiao is a great boxer but this last fight made me and a lot of people, think (I may dare to say "confirm") that he's being sold and elevated by his promoters while he still has it.
Mosley clearly had nothing to loose. Welcome to boxing's mob.

Funny! I cannot agree more! True that! Yes!! Indeed, I saw the look on that face, it was totally freezing cold. And after he stood up, I can say that he was a bit shaking. But I pity him. I think it would be better for him to just surrender if he thinks he cannot make it. He seemed totally disturbed during the fight. I can sense his trembling since the fight started. But still we have to salute Mosley for being such a good sport and for surviving it till the last round!
And yeah! Congrats Manny! Pinoy pride!

This is true in a sense Mosley has lost his abilities a bit but I still think Pacquiao is a tank and he has proven that in all fights, I already knew the victor but I still say Pacquiao is a destroyer no matter who challenges (at least at this point in time).

at least, Mosley is a true warrior....
even that he knows he'll been beaten, still he fights manny in the ring.....
and to refuse the fight is a sign of a chicken like what mayweather did....

Hi there, first of all I want to congratulate Manny Pacquiao for bringing again honor to our country. I was not able to watch the Pacquiao-Mosley fight yesterday because I was busy preparing for mother's day celebration. However, I was able to watch the news on TV lastnight and saw the highlights of the event. Mosley was knocked down in 3rd round. Pacquiao ran after mosley the rest of the fight. mosley was afraid of getting knocked out and i can see it to his face. hahaha. oh well, that's life. better luck next time mosley!

Hahaha. If I were in Mosely's shoes, I would also develop this rare sickness. I mean who knows better of how powerful Manny's punch is than those who experienced it first hand? LOL. But I'm guessing it's more powerful than a horse kick. :)

Pacquiao is amazing, by far favorite boxer, he shows great skill, power but most of all is speed. He in my opinion is the reincarnation of the late Julio César Chávez in the demonstration of speed and power. I too used to box until school got in the way (so sad about that) and I love Pacquiao I do belive in this phobia. He is even a person to make the supposedly undefeatable Mayweather quake in fear (calling bull**** tests and requirements) avoiding him like the plague as well. Pacquiao is going far I promise that.

Without doubt, Manny Pacquiao is the winner!! He is noted to be the most notable boxer ever alive. His blatant display of faith in God (making a sign of the cross before, during and after a fight) is also a good indication of his being a good person..Perhaps he is abundantly blessed because of his "goodness". I hope that he will continue to be blessed.
