This fight is pretty much done, they're just going to talk about the numbers and it's on in February. Going to have to pick Margarito here too, Mosley is really shot and his last performance confirmed it. I'm a big-time Mosley fan so I might change my opinion as it gets closer, will leave my vote for later.
Mosley is no where near active enough when he fights now to really bother Margarito...As the rounds go by, the result will seem inevitable, just like in the Cotto fight...unfortunately !
Sugar Shane Mosley Mosley digs deep and surprises us all in this one....I mean this is Shane Mutha****in Mosley!!!!!!!
Margarito. I think he can possibly take the worst beating of his career. It shouldnt take anything from his legacy though.
I just think Margarito will eat everything Shane throws at him and will either wear him down for the stoppage or Shane will barely survive. Shane is one of my favorite all time fighters and currently my #1 or #2 guy (Dawson) but Margarito is just a monster.
Shane has had problems with Vern Forrest, who like Margarito is tall and rangy with good power, Margarito with even more pop. Plus it's not the same Mosely nowadays. Shane will have his moments, but Tony is even harder to move back than Forrest was.The fight may resemble Margarito-Cotto, but Shane is more durable. It will be Margarito by unanimous decision.
One more thing, if Shane wins this fight, he becomes a top 10 pound for pound guy and his all time stature jumps from something like top 125 to top 100, easily.
Unless The Sugarman changes to the old Mosley overnight...the one that beat Mayorga has no shot against Tony....Too big...too strong and too busy inside there.He ain't gonna give Shane rest in there...and Shane ain't as active as he used to be....Not quite the same pop to his shots....and against The Tornado,that spells trouble. Shane should be fighting cats like Berto instead.... Margarito UD.
yes margo if you look at shanes lat performance, but everyone has to remember margo is beatable, alot of peeps are a little disalusioned now and think he is a monster that no one can beat that is not true and it has happend 5 times before
