Margarito isn't knocking out Mosley.

Margo will probably win but he won't stop Mosley.

 

Is this settled n' signed? This is news to me. Wow. Can someone elaborate, please?

 

I sure hope Shane Mosley could pull this one.

 

I disagree if Mosley takes this fight he is done, he will be stopped Ala Cotto bet the bank on it. Mosley at this stage in his career will not be able to handle a big strong fighter who applies pressure like Margo does.

 

He doesn't need to KO Mosley to stop him. It's definitely a possibility Shane doesn't see the final bell.

 

Maybe, but the thing is, it's not about power with Margo...

It's about volume and relentless pressure, meaning if Mosley's legs start slippin even for a minute, he's in trouble because even if he pulls out the kitchen sink, Margo will eat his shots for breakfast.

Unless Margo's chin fails him, which I don't see happening, his pride will keep him marching foward into Mosley's onslaught and if Mosley doesn't have the legs to get away from him, he's going to take some massive punishment.

And while Mosley has good D for an aggressive fighter and he counterpunched the **** outta Mayorga, Margarito ain't the same animal. Margarito is coming there to kill you, and there ain't anybody out there right now who can utilize their power with an approriate defense to neutralize his attack and keep him tenative.

Even Clottey who, doesn't necessarily have the defense that I'm talking about, but frustrates his opponent with a shell defense and is tough as nails, and was putting together triple punch combinations on the inside couldn't keep Margarito humble and he's a big welterweight.

What I'm trying to get at is a guy like Mosley is going to have to rely on his smarts and his legs to hit and run against Margo and be cautious about mixing it up, because even if it appears like Mosely is landing some devestating head punches, (which he probably is, but it's Margo), Margo is putting in the body work to slow Mosley down and prime him for the kill.

So yeah, I agree with the thread starter that Mosley has been in with more devestating punchers, but he's never been in with someone as relentless and tough as Margarito, who on top of that has the size to put that lean on.

It's hard to pick Mosley in this fight unless Margo completely fell off, which I don't think he has. I wouldn't be surprised to see Mosley quit in the corner or have his corner call the fight somewhere in the late rounds.

The Bottom line is No way Mosley can win this fight.
It will either be a UD or a KO win for Margo.
