    That was a very anti-climax finish with Raul Marquez, known for getting slashed for anything at all ever since the Yori Boy Campas Light Middle Title fight, walked out of the fight before four rounds to make it a no-contest ( remember Marquez is a commentator for HBO Latino) - that was obviously after getting to know he would be out-punched by faster, shorter puncher Shane and using that old trick that a lefty and a conventional fighter always run the risk of clashing heads as soon as they move in to punch the body at the same time... I guess this is not a biased view on that matter cause I respect both guys, b'sides what is gone is gone...

    I wish it couldve continued cause Shane was looking pretty decent in that fight and wouldve added a nice name to his 154 resume.

    I'm sure I scored all three rounds to Mosley. Mosley was boxing him nicely and that straight right could be a beaut.

    Shame it was an NC because Mosleys record looks awful over that period. Like a true great, Sugar turned it around.

    Ain't that the truth. And Mosley was even turning it up right before it was stopped.
