    Pac would definitely beat him at 147 I think. Hatton is a toss up.

    Even if he loses there will be the temptation for one last payday against a Berto or a Clottey or some other young guy trying to add a name to the resume.

    This is one of those fights where I wish no one had to lose. However, I do think this is shane's last hoorah as a high level fighter.

    Agreed.

    Edit: Except I would pick him over Pacquiao and probably Hatton.

    How do you draw this conclusion? Margarito has made a career of eating heavy leather and relying on his chin. We haven't seen him again since the Cotto fight, so how do you figure this?

    If he loses like Cotto, he should fight once more. If He loses like the "OLDEN BOY", he should hang em up.

    He'll retire to spend less time with his family.

    But you're probably right that it'll drive him back into the ring down the road.:(

    I kinda do. Margo is gonna fight Cotto next anyway. It would be better for boxing right now if Mosley wins. It may draw Floyd out of retirement. And love or hate Floyd, he's good for boxing.

    Not many may agree but the amount of shots margo took in the cotto fight was rediculous. No human can recover totally from that without internal damage. I think mosley is on a different level technically and will outbox margarito and maybe even stop him.

    Mosley looked bad against mayorga, i know, but with nazim richardson formulating a plan a, b, ect.. and a more lively mosley at 147 then my vbookie money (if it was still around) would be on mosley.

    I hope not but I'm afraid it could happen. I think Shane can pull it off though.
