Mosley isn't a hard man to bring down, don't get me wrong. The former title holder, even at 39, way way past his peak and two years since he last won a fight, wasn't there just to collect the guaranteed 5 mil. Well, he was mostly there for it. But he wasn't going to get knocked out with everyone watching. He did get knocked down in the third by the eight-division World Champion for only the third time in his career. It was on to full survival mode after that for Mosley.
Pacquiao kept hammering away at Mosley throughout the fight but by accident hit the canvas in the 10th. Don't worry, Mosley didn't really manage to land a punch, it was more of a push and slip by Pacquiao who got up quickly to keep his beating going. It was hardly a shocker when the Filipino boxer/politician/singer/mega-idol won by unanimous decision. Taking home more than 20 million dollars wasn't a bad way to end the night as well.
Pacquiao has won his last three fight by UD and hasn't not won by a KO or unanimous decision since his Split Decision win over Juan Manuel Marquez on March 2008. The 37 year old Mexican who has already faced Pacquiao twice, drawing once as well, is supposed to make it a third time in November if they manage to work out the deal. Rivaling promotion companies (Top Rank vs Golden Boy) is usually a problem.
