    If that doesn't tell you who's going to win- I don't know what will.

    Like I said before, that's the reason Canelo is even fighting him, because it's a win over a past-his-prime boxer. Fight is set up as a way to solidify Canelo as a future star.

    Bottom line: Mosley will not win.

    Style wise / experience wise Canelo shouldnt be a problem for him, but Mosley is totally shot.

    if mosley can land one of his patented right hands on canelo's china chin, it would be a major upset

    odds dont tell you who win. DLH was a favorite over Pacquiao ( I won $3000 on that fight) Mosley was a 6-1 underdog against Margarito (made $4000 on that fight). Now Canelo should be a favorite but I think its kinda of a dangerous fight. Why you say? Because Mosley will be the hardest punchers Canelo has ever faced, and even though old, probably the fastest hes ever fought.

    I dont mind Canelo taking this fight as long as he fights Kirkland or Cotto next, which he will. wouldnt mind Lara either.

    If u cant tell Canelo has pure skills then u dont know **** about boxing!! So people need to quit talking like hes Chavez Jr, hes 10 TIMES the boxer Chavez is and 4 years younger and has a better resume so suck on that

    9-1 odds
    LOL

    but yet most anyone i see on here not only picks mosley to win but knock him out....

    bookies dont live in the past basing every future fight on what someones best performance was...... everyone that thinks shane wins is because of the margarito fight
    , but they forget he looked like **** when cotto beat him before that , he wins against a clown in mayorga...wrecks margo , and hasnt won since....
    the bookies have it right...and if it drops much if anyway then people will be betting on shane...but they wont be betting to win, only to hit a jack pot should he win
    and he is ****ING 40 years old

    Odds tell me that -900 favorites win most of the time. Implied probability on a -900 favorite is 90%

    Of course there's always a chance for an upset-- that's part of boxing and every other sport. But I wouldn't go betting against such a big favorite.
