Looking back, Mosley gave Canelo a harder fight then Kirkland.

    He fought him when he was 40 years old. Pretty impressive to say the least.

    Depends on how you want to look at it. Both of them got their asses kicked. Mosley just didnt engage as much as Kirkland, so he got to fight on....
    Sadly I feel James Kirkland may have lost more than the fight on the night that he fought Canelo. You dont ever come back the same after engaging in exchanges that frequently and losing 99% of them.



    *sigh* Oh James Kirkland....What could you have been.

    Absolutely spot on, on all points.

    I've always felt from the moment I saw the reaction of the masses that Mosley's performance against Canelo is highly overstated.
