Were talking Shane Mosely here. The guy who has extreme handspeed, as strong as Hatto and hates being landed on without returning a punch. I don't think Shane Mosely is a guy who can be beaten by trading with him, but he can be beaten with a counter style.. When has someone out FOUGHT Mosely? He's been countered to death by Wright, and beaten from range by Forrest.
Do you even ****IN WATCH BOXING? Or KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE SPORT?! Every thread you start, and every time youy post, is ****in nonesense.atsch
Kosta was the champ, so ****-weak argument there already...also, it seems to me you think Hatton will beat Mosley and you're 'crying it in' (as they say here) before the fight's begun. :good
I'd say Mosley is "post-prime", but far from being a shot fighter. A post-prime Mosley is still a top fighter. I'm one of the people who thinks Hatton's win against Castillo, while impressive, is being blown completely out of proportion. If he fought and beat Mosley, anyone who didn't give him credit for beating a live Hall of Famer would be on crack. Mosley can't put the 5-6 punch lighting combinations together any more, but he can still put together some pretty fast 3-4 punch combos.
It won't happen. De La Hoya wants this fight and that means it WILL happen. Mosley works for him and isn't going to get first crack at Hatton. Next May the fight between Hatton and DLH is going to take place at 154 lbs. Hatton better start lifting weights.
I think Hatton gets beat here, convincingly. Mosley is too good all round. He can bang if he needs to bang. He can work on the outside with ridiculous handspeed if he needs to. He's tooooo big for Ricky and has too much experience and enough left in the tank to beat him. As much as I am a fan of Ricky's this is the fight I dont want to see, I would much rather see PBF, Cotto or Magic Man (to see his mouth filled with the rubbish he's been spouting).
Wright did. He stood infront of Mosley all night, exchanged punch-for-punch with him and out-muscled him in close and kept him backing up al night with the jab.
Hatton at 154????? Can't see it, no matter how much money Oscar offers Hatton ain't dumb enough to jump up that far just to take a beating.
