@SugarShaneM: I think it's going to be a really tough fight, @ballerstatus. Both of us have our strong points, it's going to be a good fight
@BallerStatus: Everyone wanted Mayweather/Pacquiao, but there was controversy. What's your take on it? (@SugarShaneM)
@SugarShaneM: They are both good fighters, @ballerstatus, but my mind set is on Mosley vs Pacquiao, and I would say Mosley will take the fight! :)
@BallerStatus: Opponents can't handle Pac-Man's speed, but you're quick. Combined punching power, can Pac-Man brawl with you? (@SugarShaneM)
@SugarShaneM: we will see @ballerstatus…it's definitely a good matchup!
@BallerStatus: You nearly sent Mayweather to the canvas, do you think Pacquiao suffer that fate from you? (@SugarShaneM)
@SugarShaneM: Yes. You will see on May 7th @ballerstatus!
@BallerStatus: In recent years, critics said you were done, but you've always made a comeback. What drives you to continue? (@SugarShaneM)
@SugarShaneM: The love of the sport, @ballerstatus & when people say I can't. Those really drive me to step my game up to prove everyone wrong!

@SugarShaneM: This fight has the same meaning to me as all of my other fights @ballerstatus. I love to show the world my abilities @ballerstatus and what better way than on May 7th!
@BallerStatus: The Mora fight wasn't the most exciting, due to his boxing style. Pac-Man fans expectn a "fight". Agree, Why? (@SugarShaneM)
@SugarShaneM: Yes, Manny's style & my style make for an intense & great fight @ballerstatus. Manny is going to be at his best & I'll be at mine #sugartime
