Mosley Runs a Bit Slow: Fight Camp 360 Episode 1

Fight Camp 360. We’re talking about boxing precision here ladies and gentlemen, and everything nice with the what-nots of a boxer’s training caught on film should really show us. And Showtime deserve countless thumbs up for pulling off a very good job at filming the last part of a champion’s training that’s made up of a few more weeks before the biggest event spent by two of the world’s greatest fighters of today as they shape up for the upcoming fight on May 7, 2011.

After watching the premier episode of Fight Camp 360 Pacquiao vs Mosley, people immediately gave opinions and even shared sentiments online; saying that Mosley seemed to be looking a bit worn out and a bit old for the sport and he looked rather tired and just plain used.

To make matters worse, he certainly looked painfully slow. Once again, Pacquiao proved that he still has the oomph, besting the last champion for their fight on May 7. Why wouldn’t he? He never falters with that boxer’s glow which he always possessed every time he’s out for practice or basking in the glory of the ring.

Just a review for episode 1, you definitely can imagine what happened, whether you’re a big fan of both boxers or not, just look at how crumpled and weary Mosley looked in the first episode.

That’s one no-show because the last two fights which he had two years ago were all lackluster and plain boring. People speculate on the fact that Mosley may not have a chance at winning over Pacquiao, even if he’s deemed sturdy and undefeated. Bottom line is, he grew too old and a bit slow, and as far as the first episode progressed, it turned out to be pretty boring for some, showing a bunch of videos with Pacquiao and Mosley being shuffled around from one place to another, and Pacquiao grinning that porcine smile in front of the camera, plus old clips to go by.

And for Shane Mosley, the fight clips and snapshots were quite so obsolete and late as well, picture out putting up a slideshow with his age-old fights with Oscar De La Hoya in 2000 and 2003. It won’t be too late until avid fans and enthusiasts would figure out that they are trying to sell the fight like an endorsement all the more, showing how bad and worse Mosley looked in his previous pair of fights. Even Pacquiao’s trainer, Freddie Roach, and trusty promoter Bob Arum were having banter about how Mosley is not that easy people and boxers should mess up about. Te episode was aired on CBS, enabling a lot of avid fans to see it. See you on May 7 for the biggest fight of the year!
