Victorious Manny Pacquiao: Shane Mosley was always running away from me

MANNY PACQUIAO QUOTES FROM POSTFIGHT PRESSER:

Paris Hilton sitting on dais next to Manny’s wife, Jinkee…

LAS VEGAS?I did my best trying to give a good fight to all of you.

You know I think because my opponent he does lot…he felt my power…and he is running just to finish the 12 rounds. I did my best.

That is a part of the game. You can’t push (the other) fighter to fight (differently) if he cannot..

The fist knockdown I felt I got him, I am stronger than him, I can finish him.

Next round I had a problem in my foot.

I went back to the corner told my strength coach to press my legs because it was too tight.

ON THE MISTAKEN KNOCKDOWN CALLED BY REF KENNY BAYLESS:

(According to Freddie Roach, Bayless came to him after the bout and apologized for the gaffe, saying he made a bad call.)

I think the people (booed) because they want us exchanging a lot of punches. But Mosley does not want to fight toe to toe, he is always running away… Advertisement

You know, I tell you the truth I am expecting him to fight toe to toe with me for at least five of the 12 rounds but what am I going to do if my opponent does not do this. I want the people to be satisfied with my performance.

I don’t care if I hurt my face, I want the people to be happy in my performance.

He felt my power in the third round. He was a little bit surprise. Since then, it was run, run, run.

(Mom wants him to retire from boxing question)

We will talk about that in a secret place.

People know I am trying to do my best.

Whatever (next opponent) my promoter gets is OK.

PARIS HILTON SAID:

I thought it was a great fight. I wanted to be up here (on the dais) with Manny and his wife, they are a beautiful couple.
