    Let this be his first fight at 147. Mosley has been written off by 3 poor performances in a row. Khan wants a big name. Despite looking bad over the last 18 months, Mosley still has a big name. As crazy as it sounds, I think it'd be a good fight.

    I think if Mosley can pull the trigger, he could flatten Khan. But if Khan runs around all fight, Mosley may get tired or the "blister" might come back.

    Shane has surprised me more than once in the past, but I think he's done at this stage.

    I think so too, damn shame, one of my all time favs(despite being about as G as Screech). I would love it if he knocked Khan the **** out though.

    I'd have to agree. Just too big and physically strong for Khan, and Khan is just so easy to hit.

    Even now Shane would smash Khan.

    RJJ is still fighting and he's been KO'd quite a bit. You can't tell me that Mosley won't give us decent fights against Ortiz, Khan, Guerrero, Cinnamon, Berto, Margarito, or Cotto. Hands down we all know Pac and Money are in a very different league than everyone else. I'd still give him a good chance against everyone at 147 now and some at 154 too. He may have burned through his earnings too quick trying to wrap up that young lady too so you know we all do some off the wall things to keep our women.

    Mosley could catch Khan, but I don't know if he could finish him. I think I'd slightly favor Khan simply because Mosley is so shot and can't pull the trigger consistently or accurately enough anymore. Khan will win the rounds by simply throwing and landing more than he gets hit with in return.

    Co-sign!

    Too many people writing Shane off because of him being dominated by the 2 best in boxing.

    Shane can still pop. He just doesn't handle speed and movement well.

    Khan-Mosley is a tough call.

    If Shane lands a few right hands, Khan will be in deep ****! But Khan might have the speed and movement to make things miserable for Mosley. But can Khan avoid being clocked hard for 12 full rounds against Mosley? I'm not sure he can, and Mosley hits a hell of a lot harder than some of the other men who've hurt Khan in recent years.

    Tough call.

    I would need to see Khan fight at 147 first, and I doubt Khan would jump into a Mosley fight to test the waters there.

    Khan may win by throwing and landing more, no doubt.

    But I don't think Mosley's problem is that he can't pull the trigger. I think he's reluctant to pull the trigger against guys with significant speed advantages over him.

    Is Khan's speed advantage over Mosley THAT significant? To me, that's what the whole fight comes down to.

    It would be amazing to see Mosley crush him.

    Mosley is finished. Khan would tap dance all over his ass at this point. I would love to see this fight as khan will not be as favored as he should at the book coming off a loss. Easy money.
