    Many people has been talking about KO this saturday night in Las Vegas, but that's not my case. I think this one will go to the scorecards and this are the judges that will decide it all if the fight is close:

    A) Dave Moretti: His most recent notable fight was Hopkins vs. Jones 2(118-109 for B-HOP)

    Let's see his resume:
    -2009: Pacquiao-Cotto(Pacquiao ahead 108-100)
    PBF vs. JMM(119-108 for PBF)
    Prescott vs. M. Vazquez(97-92 for Prescott, only judge to give Prescott the decision)

    -2008: DLH vs. Pacquiao(Pacquiao ahead 80-71 trhu 8 rds.)
    Dawson vs. Tarver I(Dawson 117-110)
    Cotto vs. Margarito(EVEN AT 95-95 trhu 10 rds.)
    Luevano vs. Santiago(EVEN AT 114-114, fight declared a draw)
    Pavlik vs. Taylor 2(117-111 for Pavlik)

    -2007: PBF vs. Hatton(PBF ahead 89-81 trhu 9 rds.)
    Vazquez vs. Marquez I(67-65 for Marquez trhu 7 rds., Marquez won by KO)

    -2006: Barrera vs. Juarez 2(115-113 for Barrera)
    PBF vs. Judah(116-112 for PBF, the closest card)
    Pacquiao vs. Morales 2(86-85 for Pacquiao thru 9 rds., the closest card)

    -2005: Taylor vs. Hopkins 2(115-113 for Taylor, all 3 judges)
    Morales vs. Pacquiao 1(115-113 for Morales, all 3 judges)

    This is Moretti's 5th time as judge for a Mayweather bout(3rd straight) and his 4th time as judge when Mosley fights(1st time since Mosley-Vargas 2). Now let's see the 2nd judge.

    Robert Hoyle: His most recent notable fight was Guzman-Funeka 2(116-111 for Guzman, the widest margin)

    -2009: Foreman vs. Santos(117-109 for Foreman)
    Katsidis vs. Escobedo(118-110 for Katsidis, the widest margin)

    -2008: Spinks vs. V. Phillips(115-113 for Spinks, only judge in Spinks favor)

    For Hoyle, this is his 1st fight scoring a bout for both PBF and SSM.

    And to finish, the 3rd one is:

    -Adalaide Byrd, her most recent notable fight was last saturday: Angulo vs. Julio and she had Angulo ahead 96-94(the closest card)

    -2009: Pacquiao vs. Cotto(109-99 for Pacquiao trhu 10 rds.)
    John vs. Juarez 2(119-109 for John)
    Spinks vs. Latimore(115-112 for Spinks)

    -2008: Pacquiao vs. DLH(80-71 Pacquiao trhu 8 rds.)
    Hopkins vs. Calzaghe(114-113 for B-HOP, only judge in B-HOP's favor)
    Mijares vs. Navarro(117-111 for Mijares)

    -2007: Mosley vs. Collazo(119-108 for Mosley)
    -2006: Torres vs. Arnaoutis(116-111 for Torres, widest margin)
    Casamayor vs. Corrales 3(116-111 for Casamayor, widest margin)

    For Adalaide Byrd, this id her 3rd fight judging a Mosley bout, while this is the 1st time ever she judges a bout for PBF.

    After summarizing the past 4-5 years of the judges, let's suppose the fight is too close to call. What will the judges verdict will be?
