    For the first time since his matchup with Shane Mosley was announced months ago, Manny Pacquiao had something negative to say about his opponent. Although Pacquiao dominated Mosley Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena —scoring a unanimous decision victory by scores of 120-108, 120-107 and 119-108 — he wasn’t happy with the way the fight went. Pacquiao (53-3-2) couldn’t hide his frustration at the beginning of his post-fight press conference.

    Although Mexican super bantamweight Jorge Arce doesn’t speak the best English, he only needed three simple words to sum up his victory over Wilfredo Vazquez, Jr. Saturday. “I told you,” Arce said as he took the podium at the post-fight press conference at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. Arce (57-6-2) created a stir at Thursday’s Pacquiao vs. Mosley undercard press conference when he promised to knock out Vazquez (20-1-1). Most thought it was wishful thinking as Vazquez closed as a 6-to-1 favorite in the WBO title fight.

    Kelly Pavlik looks out of place. He’s sitting on a stage in a conference room outside of the MGM Grand Garden Arena with a handful of young boxers who are eager to boost their profile by fighting on the undercard of Saturday’s Manny Pacquiao vs. Shane Mosley bout. Unlike his counterparts, Pavlik needs no introduction.

    One can easily make the argument that Manny Pacquiao’s boxing training has suffered because of his many responsibilities outside of the ring. Pacquiao, who will take on Shane Mosley Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in defense of his WBO welterweight title, has been extremely busy in recent months marketing and promoting his ventures.

UFC 158
Nick Diaz fails to back up years worth of talk

UFC 158 A welterweight title fight that felt incredibly different wound up remarkably the same. Georges St. Pierre manhandled nemesis Nick Diaz with his wrestling. St. Pierre won every round on every judges' scorecard in Montreal for his sixth straight unanimous-decision victory. Diaz had preached his superiority over St. Pierre for years, but when he finally got his chance, he looked as helpless as all the other challengers to the 170-pound division's throne in the last six years. St. Pierre's consistency continued to amaze. Now it's on to Johny Hendricks, who defeated Carlos Condit in the evening's co-main event. Could he be the one to finally threaten St. Pierre?
