    Not many, Mosly didn't look that great against Mayorga but he closed the show.

    I think Shane at this point is becoming a stepping stone...He'll make Berto a big name in the sport and probably become a more sought after Champion than Tony...

    I give all the respect to Mosley for being one of the dying breed of respectable boxers out there that are willing to take on the big names for **** money and not really care about flawless records but rather putting on a great show and taking on the best...

    serious accolades to a TRUE boxer...

    ****ing Oscar is fighting Forbes and then Manny Pac. Shane is chasing after Margarito, and now gonna take on Berto as a backup plan :deal

    ****ing Oscar! :patsch I'm done defending that guy, he has been retired since the Floyd fight as far as I'm concerned. I hope Pac beats him so at least we might see a Pac/Floyd fight :deal

    Massive credit to Mosley for this. A true warrior. There really is hardly any other active boxers as brave, as Margarito would've eaten him for breakfast judging by the Mayorga fight.

    I can see why the fight doesn't appeal to Margarito though. Mosley isn't hot property anymore after losing to Cotto and performing poorly against Mayorga. Margarito wants big fights.

    Paul Williams?....c'mon now, it took him 13rounds to KO Carlos Quintana....no way he stops Mayorga

    but i agree, i thought up untill he KO'd he looked well past it....but the fact that he KO'd him, and considering how much Mayorga weighed, and how tough and awkward Mayorga is made up for it all

    besides this is Mayorga we're talking about....it aint like he was fight some bum or something

    Realize this. When Sugar Shane is done boxing WILL miss him. The guys a throwback and has been always willing throughout his entire career to fight anyone. Thats a pro`s pro.
