    Who wants a tiny bet that Mosley makes Marg look silly?

    Tony will eat Mosley up. The reason is that Shane would rather go toe to toe then box. Mosley's never turned down a war and it'll play straight into Margarito's hands. Cotto's lateral movement gave Tony problems, but Shane will stand and trade for the most part.

    Well he is supposed to be trained by Nazzem Richardson (Hopkins' trainer) for this fight so maybe he is looking to execute a more boxing type of fight, but who knows? Margarito UD.



    A prime Mosley beats him however

    Maybe he does... who knows. Vernon Forrest beat him twice at Welterweight, so nothing's out of the equation.

    Mosley with the right game plan can box Marg's ears off but he just has to box. If he stands & trades he gets stopped. If he has Richardson in his corner, Mosley will pull it off.

    You love having a dig at Jamie dontcha? :) It hasn't gone unnoticed by many. Still, his Fox Shows are the ones that have consistently rated the best. I guess it's all about finding different angles. The main fight was a ball tearer and the little fellas gained the promotion much needed press... Arum's promotions included Mia St John and Butterbean on PPV... and who could forget Evil Knievel...

    I guess Jamie Myer & Bob Arum have lots in common when it comes to Butterbean.:yep
    Myer put on 1 of best main events FOX has had this year on his last card no complaints from me, undercard was fairly week due to some pullouts, but i wont back down that i think the midgets shouldnt belong on tv.
    Makes boxing seem more of a sideshow act with all the press it received.

    And take a guess as to which Fox airing received the best ratings...yep the bean. Difference was, Bob put him on PPV's.

    The undercard might not have been it's strongest, but the fights were enjoyable. If the original card with Briggs v Cronje, Alex v Col and Jarrod Fletcher had have stayed together it was easily the most interesting card this year.

    It's up to you whether you think midgets belong on tele, it's been and done, as has the para-olympics. Did you lose sleep over that too?

    Hmm. Marg should win this one, though it could get tricky for him early on.
    I see what teke is saying, but Mosley isnt the man to make Marg look silly.

    Not too interested in this one should it come off. I'd actually like to see a Cotto rematch.

    Well this year regarding FOX ratings the biggest was Kickett vs Rodriguez.

    The undercard i said was ok, considering all the pull outs on short notice, but it was 1 of the weaker ones of the year. Not quite Murray Thomson levels.:lol:
    Then again my favourite boxer Hardcore Hadlow was semi main on both occasions, if only he could win the Aussie title.:good
    I liked Hunter Sam tho showed nice pop.
    Hopefully Myer steps away from these sideshow acts for cheap ratings & gets back to quality he can put on like Leapai-Cronje.:deal

    I will always give a little bit more credit to the better skilled fighter.

    It is evident that Mosley is on the decline but i have a funny feeling about this fight. If Mosley is training to fight to a plan then i can see him winning. He can box well when he wants to.
