    How would this have gone if it happened during Oscars Lightweight and Light Welterweight years of 95-97

    Mosley never started peaking till around 1998. Oscar looked awesome during theese days but we dont know how strong he would be down the stretch in a hard fight.

    I go with oscar on points

    I think it goes the same way their fights went at the higher weights. Oscar tries to overwhelm Shane with size and power, learns he can't do it, uses his better boxing ability to win a rematch and gets dudded on the cards.
