    Speed kills, and Mosley had tons.

    Lloyd's awkwardness keeps him in it for the first half of the fight, but Mosley figuratively and indeed, literally, runs away with it as the fight goes on.

    Mosley WU15 (10-5).

    That's just what I was thinking. I also see a decapitation at the hands of Sir Lloyd

    I recken the Lloyd sharpshooter of the Curry fight would give Mosley a run 4 his money, the Lloyd after that (As Starling pointed out) just looked like a wild ***** swinging a handbag & gets stopped midway:smoke

    Mosley would wina UD, when The Ragamuffin Man came for him Shane would be ready and willing; his additional speed wins the fight.

    Interesting match up, I think Honeyghan is better technically and smarter, Mosley the faster man. There is a good case the Honeyghan handled speed with his domination of Curry but Mosley is a more natural brawler with better chin who fought well when being pressured. I have a feeling it would be a back and forth war and quite close.

    I'm going to sit on the fence and say it would be 8-7 either way or late a KO either way

    Not 100% sure about Honeyghan but Im positive Mosely never went 15 in a fight.

    I think Lloyd takes Sugar Shane in a late round kayo in a competitive scrap.
