    Mosley looked like a mirror image of B Hop's punch and hold style.

    Shame on Margarito for falling into that trap. Styles make fights, and stylistically this was UGLY! I was falling asleep, I thought I was watching another Hopkins fight. (bar the one he had against Pavlik where he looked amazing)

    Shane held on to him all the through the fight. Raul Caiz Sr. is an awful ref. Never warned Shane once for the holding. I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but for once I'd wish Jay Nady was ref'n the fight. You better believe there would have been some warnings for holding.

    Right now, Margarito needs to forget about Cotto and get a rematch with Mosley. Margarito said it wasn't his night, I believe him. Especially after Forrest said the same thing about the first Mora fight. We all know the woop'n Mora got in the rematch.

    This was a very disappointing fight. If this is how Shane is gonna be fighting from here on out, count me out. More power to him if it extends his career, but boxing right now needs more than "throw back" boxing.
