    I really thought Mosley was gonna lose that one right up until that weird last second ko. Mayorga must be hating himself for letting that happen. Do you know what official scorecards were up until that moment?

    Yup...if he uses the ring and fights the same way he did against Urango, he could easily win this fight. if he fights the way he did against Collazo, he will surely get knocked out.

    berto can upset shane but if you ask me there little chance as long as shane doesn't get old overnight.

    I think Berto will win. Or at least I'm trying to mentally condition myself to do so, so that if he actually does, I won't be upest by it. I threw a chair across the room when Mosley lost to Cotto. Or a footstool.

    For ****s sake. Mayorga wasn't even close to winning that fight on the cards. Not by mine, not even by the judges.

    Arm chair score cards dont matter , 2 judges had mosley up , one had him down . That doesnt matter now anyway , if you look at any punch stats Berto takes too many punches , he may land more but percentage wise he is way down , if mosley is anything like he was in January Berto will be in trouble.

    I think Berto has a most excellent chacne. He's got quick hands, his problem is he gets hit and Mosley tends to eat up fighters like that. Having said that, Berto may be fighting in terms of how hard his opponent hits, he probably moves around the ring better than Shane, though maybe not in the danger-zone, Shane transfers his weight beautiful.

    Anyway, I lean to Mosley, but I really don't rule out a surprise here. It wouldn't be a big surprise to me if it happened. Close fight i'll bet.

    Berto is young, fast and strong and Mosley is 38, hasn't fought in a year and has been in some tough fights. Of course Andre has a chance. I see Berto winning the first three or four rounds and getting sloppy around that time, with Shane winning by a late knockout. Even Cosme Rivera got Andre in trouble late, his natural gifts are totally wasted on his huge defensive holes.

    I think if Mosley expects to just come out and beat Andre into submission we might have Andre winning this. If it turns into brawl Mosley wins by ko.

    Only if he lasts the distance.
    (AKA him lasting 12 will be an upset!!)
