    Your thoughts fellas? Shane has a good chin, but I believe his age will catch up to him in this fight.

    i really cant say.

    i would guess no tho. but there is a big possibility with his tendency to want to fight instead of box.

    Hell no ... Mosley has never been stopped and only knocked down once in his career ... Mosley has the better chin of the two ...

    I have predicted a Margarito stoppage......

    But wouldn't be surprised to hear Shane hear the final bell, or nick a decision.

    He might not go down, but either his corner pull him, or the ref stops it late. Maybe 9-10.

    I cant see a stoppage, I think people are forgetting how good Shane used to be, he has slowed down somewhat but he definetly isn't shot worn, he has just slowed down.

    He will last the distance but he will lose the last 6 or 7 rounds due to low work rate. He fights in spurts, once that tanks empty he will be there for the taking but I think he will be good for this fight in terms of being able to go the distance.

    If Clottey can, Mosley should, whether he can is a matter of opinion and I for 1 will love to see him make it to the end, but I want Margarito to win...

    Mosley has the better chin of the 2, have you not seen Margarito before or something ?

    Most likely.

    Unless Mosley is much fresher than his last fight, maybe it will serve as a wakeup call.

    I think the majority of people won't be surprised if Mosley hears the final bell or gets stop late, we just don't know because of Mosley age.

    I really don´t know. The pressure which Margarito will put on Shane will be tremendous. But I don´t even know who is winning the fight...maybe Shane by stoppage :)

    I think Shanes right hand is going to play a big factor ... because Margarito's chin hasn't been tested.

    Cotto shouldve fought him the whole fight in the southpaw stance --

    cotto should have made it 12 with margarito but lack of experience with that type of fighter lead to his demise.... he mentally couldnt take it any more...

    i think shane being the crafty vet that he is will make it to the bell... i think the mayorga fight is mis leading
