Ask Shane Mosley how he can beat Manny Pacquiao and the answer is match his speed and don’t be afraid to trade punches with a fighter who loves to trade punches. Ask trainer Naazim Richardson how his fighter can beat the best boxer in the world, and the answer is slightly different. “If he can be the best Sugar Shane Mosley there is, then Pacquiao has problems,” Richardson said. Unfortunately, Mosley hasn’t been his best for quite some time. The 39-year-old Mosley will try to resurrect his career with a signature win over Pacquiao (pictured left in photo), who again is so confident of his chances that he has scheduled a postfight concert on the Las Vegas Strip for all his loyal followers.
