    Could Mosley get by the uderrated Weston?I dont think so.Weston wins a unaminous decison.

    A good match up, both are about equal but Mosley is a bit faster. He would move & jab to take a UD over fifteen rounds. Shane had trouble with a tall lanky fighter like Forrest, But Weston would be about the same size & would bring out the best in Shane.

    I'm pretty sure I do. Does the fight get stopped because of Weston closed eye?

    I actually think he gave Hearns his toughest fight until SRL 1

    LOL, Weston was good but he was no near Mosley's class.

    Mosley by very WU15

    Mosley's class at Welter saw him lose twice to ordinary, nervous Vernon Forrest.

    Weston was technically superior and would give him a tough fight.

    Forrest is on par with Weston. And Vernon had a hex on Mosley, the demons go back to their amateur days.

    Mosley has no trouble with Weston...:good

    I seen Weston fight many times live, he was ready to be KO'd by Vito A but a cut opened by a head but made them stop it in Harolds favor, he was a well schooled boxer but Mosley was a better fighter in every area

    Weston could win by a close unanimous, or split decison, but I'm thinking Mosley imposes his will on Weston taking a close unanimous verdict.

    Yep he did. One of few fighters to take Hearns past 3 before he met Leonard. Insane to think- Hearns was lik 33-0 with 31 KO's (I think) before he fought Sugar Ray, but as a amateur he had around 14 stoppages with well over a hundred amateur fights.

    Arguably Weston is your better schooled fighter, but Mosely is far more talented, dynamic and problably stronger. I like Mosely to win an inside battle and take a very convincing decision.

    Mosley wins a decision. Weston was good but not on the Mosley level like some have said.

    I could honestly see Weston winning a decision over Mosley in a nailbiter, but he would have to be at his best, Mosley 's speed is no joke.

    I think Mosley is better but the question is whether he is better without his steroids.
