    I just realized a big fight is coming up and I haven't made a prediction on it yet. I was 0.5 rounds off making alot of money on my last bet on a fight, DLH-Pac. Anyways on this one Im putting down £50 on Mosley by points 6.2 odds on betfair.

    At first I thought Margo KO 8, considering how Margo handled Cotto and how Mosley handled Mayorga. However I put 2 and 2 together, Mosley is alot more durable than Cotto and Margo is slower than Mayorga. Mosley will get hit alot but he can take it, he has better footwork than Cotto and he will outbox Margo clearly for the first 5 rounds. Later on the rounds will be much closer with Margo winning most of it. I can see Shane digging deep in the 10th and 11th and win a close UD end of the fight.

    Margo will close in on Mosley as he usually does, Mosley lands a combination whilst taking 1 or 2 from Margo in return, then he will circle away. This will go on for pretty much of the fight except this will be alot more effective for Mosley in the earlier rounds when he's fresher. I can see Mosley footwork fading later on in the rounds, trading against Margo where Margo would obviously get the better of him. Expect the right hand for Margo to land constantly over Mosley's left.

    Ultimately though, a very past prime Mosley will show just how limited Margo is in a tough and close fight. Cotto UD Margo in a rematch BTW.

    It's going to be a Split Decison Loss for Margarito, in a close fight with no KDs.

    Yeah I'm expecting a really good showing from Mosley he looked up and ready for the fight at the weigh-in.

    A close fight with Mosley winning is very plausible.
    I think this fight will be close too.

    I guess I don't see Shane outboxing Tony, because Shane's never been much of a slick boxer. He's a toe-to-toe guy, not a potshotter. He likes to get in there and scrap.

    He outboxed collazo. Dont get me wrong, he wont run but he will land more punches. Mosley will be the more worn out fighter end of the fight but the winner.

    Molsley, W12 Margarito, via split decison. Judge Glen Hamada will have it 116-112 Margarito. Judge Tom Kascmarek, 115-114, SSM. And judge Jerry Roth, 115-114, for the winner by Split Decison and NEW WBA welterweight Champion of the Woooooorllllld, Sugar Shane MOOOSSLLLLEEEYYYYY!!!! As Sugar gets lifted into the air, and Bernard sticks his face in the camera.

    I agree with Post #1 and #[url]5[/url]

    I see this Mosley wining a close points win. Possibly a SD or MD.

    Made some good points guys. And I agree!

    Also with the Bernard showing his mug in the camera too hahah I actually pictured that **** as I read that :lol:
