    Prime-for-prime I see Shane being competitive, but dropping a UD to Curry. The Cobra wasnt as fast as Shane, but he was ALOT better technically, and more accurate. At his best I see him countering between Shane's fast combos, and hurting Mosley. Shane would have his moments due to his speed, and heart, but I think Curry outboxes him for the majority of the fight.

    Go with the Curry UD, better slicker boxer, but maybe Mosley could score a come from behind KO?

    I don't know.

    The thing with Mosely is that he's definately a guy that scores upsets. And he has the far better whiskers. Curry is just one of those "on top" fighters and he looks like a hall of famer when he's facing somebody where he is on top. But when he isn't on top, he looks ordinary and flawed and all of a sudden those weaknesses become huge.

    In a 3 fight series, I'd go with Mosely to win at least once. Neither guy is going 3-0 because the one time they didn't have their A+ game, they'd lose.
