    Whether he punishes Collazo or not is another discussion, all I'm saying is that the win over Collazo won't be looked at any different than a win over Clottey.

    Credibility or not he's not a good enough opponent for Mosley right now, Berto at least offers an 0 and the WBC title, this guy doesn't offer anything.

    I'm not one to make excuses, if Mosley loses then he does. I just don't see it happening and not even close.

    He earned that position, Mosley is already established as an ATG. Big fights only matter at this point.

    Cotto don't ever have to fight him again because he already beat him and he did it convincingly. You can let that Mararito fight gas your head up all you want but Mosley took out a guy who shouldn't even been champ in the first place because he's ****in bum and got caught cheating cause he knew wasn't that good to compete at a top level.

    Mosley by decision, I'd much rather see Mosley-Cotto II

    It was a clear close UD for Cotto, that's how I saw it too. Still a rematch shouldn't be completely ignored based on that, Mosley's win over Margarito should attract Cotto to give Mosley a rematch he deserves. Let's face it, Mosley is the #1 Welterweight right now, if Cotto wants that spot back he has to beat him again.

    Speaking of Margarito, a lot of us knew Margarito was a tomato can anyway, it's just that people here were too dumb to see it.

    Well at least we agree on that. Well everything remains to be seen. We'll IMO the smarter move should be Clottey vs. Berto and winner could fight Mosley. Unless Mosley wants to fight Paul Willaims because we know Floyd ain't gonna fight Mosley anytime soon.

    Well Mosley dont have time for small timers and he's not going to bother with it.. This fight isn't appealing anyways.. MOsley is looking for the legacy and big $ fights... Not no freakin clottey.

    Could be an exciting fight but realistically on Mosley's part this is pointless. Hes gonna be fighting a guy who Margarito already beat

    Williams is a wrong fight for Mosley and doesn't offer enough money for the huge amount of risk it involves, even Mosley's win over Margarito is better than Williams' so that kills it more. It's all about business now with Mosley, if it's a mega event with a major payday then it will happen, he's 37, already established and earned that spot.

    Clottey can fight Berto though I'll be surprised if Berto's team take it as it would also be too risky with not enough reward but Berto is no Mosley to ignore that fight as he's in need of making a name for his self so this fight makes sense and should be considered. Mosley made a career taking risks, Berto can start now.

    I think Mosley will do what he said he will, just stay inactive till Mayweather/Marquez and Pac/Cotto are done with. If the winners of those two fights decide to meet then Mosley will have to do some more waiting or take a tune-up/mandatory to stay active, if not then I expect Mosley to take on the winner 100%.

    Now you know damn well if Clottey doesn't break his hand in that fight he would of shut Margarito out. Margrito ain't no where in Clottey's league.
