There is a chance that if Mosely beats Mayorga he will get a shot at Margarito! its either that or we end up haveing to suffer through another Judah breakdown. Hopefully its Mosely and with Clottey haveing the torn Bicep this may be what we get. I am saying here, right now Mosely beats Margarito!! he has fought big guys at 154, Vargas and Hoya who is 5 11 and I say Mosely has the speed and boxing ability and experience against swarmers to take a decision against Margo. The main thing is Moselys toughness and good defensive skills he has just enough to survive twelve with Margo and win on points.. '
If he uses his skills, he could win on points. He better not lose focus on strategy like he did with Cotto.
You need footwork to beat MArgarito and very good feet for a long hard 12. Mosley used to be better on his feet. He won't last 12 with the Tijuana Tornado!
Well he still has better footwork than Margo. So he does have a chance. Like I said, it depends on how he uses his skills.
I give Mosely a very slim chance of not getting KO/TKO. Cotto has similar speed and more power, and Marg ate his shots for dinner. On a more important note, it was found out that Clottey's bicep was pulled and not teared, and he should be back in the next month to training.
he could deffinitly pull it out if he keeps focused, cotto could have but he lost focus and looked what happen
I'd love to see it happen. Mosley better tighten up his defense though for this one. If he leaves his dome hanging out in empty space like he did against Cotto we will see Sugar Shane stopped for the first time ever.
Mosley is far more durable than Cotto, but at his age I don't think he would win, at his peak he may have been able to stop Margo.
I still give Mosley a shot even at his age since he's a proven warrior. I've personally never seen him touch the canvas (in 6 or so fights).
yes that is a guy that could be margo. Mosley is very fast, very skillful, has a huge heart, and a granite chin. I would pick Mosley in this one by UD.
Mosley would have to revert to a style he has not used in the pro's. Shane is not the typical "Boxer" type, His fight's never put people to sleep.. meaning don't expect Shane to ever backpeadle or fight off the backfoot. (For an entire fight) Does Shane have enough WW punching power to get Antonio's respect? In a fight Vs. Margarito toe to toe action is alomost guranteed at some point in the fight. Mosley has been one of the most durable fighter's over the last decade or so and has always survived the big fight's with his solid chin and agressive style, However against Margarito he might meet his match in all those area's. (This ain't De la Hoya, Margarito show's not respect to a fighter he know's can't hurt him) If Mosley can somehow sustain an all out outside boxing style against Tony he can most defo win, But at this stage can we expect that type of performance? I wish Mosley luck Vs. Mayorga first, I have a feeling that won't go good.
