    And on the same night too.

    Wait...now, or in his prime?

    I think Mosley would struggle to make the weight these days. And at 54 he's certainly past his prime. :D

    He'd wipe the fkn floor with every single one of them, are we kidding?

    I think Shakur could have a chance... we need to see more of him at higher level opposition to get a better gauge.

    I've always found it weird that people rate Mosley at 135 so high. His resume there isnt't that great, his best win was against Philip Holiday.

    While Mosley was a quality lightweight champion, his resume at 135 lacks big names. He didn't really start fighting the pound for pound types until he moved to 147. While I think SSM beats them all, Shakur could take him by decision if he fights his usual uber-cautious style.
