    Sorry I meant "Although both Mosley and Margo are considered boxer punchers"

    I don't consider Margo a boxer puncher. At his best he's a swarmer/pressure fighter.

    Margarito a boxer puncher?, you have to be joking. Margarito is a slugger, just walk straight and block punches with your head type of fighter. His tactics are predictable and he's as one-dimensional as it gets, a boxer puncher can be unpredictable sometimes and that's something Margarito isn't. Kostya Tszyu is a boxer puncher, Mosley is a boxer puncher, styles like that are boxer punchers. You should watch more of Margarito, one or two fights should be enough to give you an idea of his style.

    Margarito is a pressure fighter, and Mosley is a brawler-boxer, or speedy slugger.

    Even though I believe Shane won the fight against Cotto, I don't think he could have done anything different.

    I also think Shane won that fight but I have no problem with the decision going to cotto..Imo I think Miguel was able to tie Shane up when he got into trouble and he was not able to do that with Margo because of Antonio's size.

    I don't think Mosley has enough left to beat Margarito. The Mosley of the early 00s I'd pick to win, but not now.

    Mosley doesn't have the stamina at this age to keep up with the ridiculous workrate of Margarito. You see him clinching more nowadays (ex. Cotto fight) for a reason. Mosley has some boxing skills but has always been more of a speedy slugger anyway, who excels in the exchanges, rather than on the backfoot or moving laterally.

    Mosley would probably have some moments, especially early on, with his speed, but there wouldn't be enough of those moments throughout the fight.
