    we will know how fas he's declined when he fights someone who is willing to fight him, i.e. berto, williams, cotto, angulo, pacman etc.

    fair enough. mora's style, i do admit is tricky. let's see mosley's next fight but i would rather him retire. nothing left to prove.


    yes, it was almost the same percentage. the only time this was even was during the first week after the floyd-mosley fight.

    i will quote Raskolnikov for the answer to this one, he made some good points.

    personally he should have retired after margo, he was never gonna be in such a favourable position again.

    maybe retiring on a win is something he should do IMO. him and berto have unfinished business.

    my bad with the %'s

    mora beat forrest handily in the first fight. the 2nd he lost handily. he aint c-class. he is just tricky, and a one dimensional fighter will always lose to him.

    would be interesting seeing mora vs angulo IMO

    yes of course it's a good way to go but there was the floyd and pac sweepstakes and he got one. the cancelled berto fight might have been one of the culprits why he looked awful versus floyd sans the stylistic disadvantage over boxers. mosley might even be overtrained for the fight.

    berto would give him a good test if he still has it. but if all our theory is correct and his kryptonite are the boxer type's then mosley could be in some type of trouble against berto also. the good thing is berto's beard is not all that solid and mosley's power could very pull him through. interesing fight still.

    probably a B- or C+ on his best night. yeah angulo vs mora would be a classic style clash.

    Because there was no "even" option. So if I have to be pushed for a decision, id go with Pac over Cotto. In light of the Mora fight, I think that is very clear now too.

    well collazo was able to tempt berto into brawling. considering how bad mosley looked in his last two fights i wouldnt be surprised if berto tried brawling also. personally i think mosley beat mora, but he didnt look good.

    ye mora vs angulo, would be very interesting to see if mora could fight on the back foot vs angulo for twelve rounds. i wouldnt epext so.

    Pac Cotto for sure, a beating and a showing of really really solid skill from Pacquiao.

    collazo is not as physically imposing as mosley or the margarito type so yes he can certainly make berto brawl. i think it will be a different case for mosley.

    so eventually you had angulo stopping mora on this one, or just a decision?

    Any top fighter should still beat Mora convincingly even if he has trouble with his style.

    Mora is nothing special at all.
