If this fight is anything like the Margarito v Cotto fight, this Saturday will be a good night.

Naturally I am pulling for Tony against the good guy "cheater" Mosely. Its amazing how the MSM doesn't condemn him for his confession of using BALCO roids in his questionable victory against DLH back in 2003. It seems all blacks in sports and politics get a pass, weather cheating or belonging to a racist blk church(BO).

Anyways, I see this fight as very competive for the first six rounds. Then in the second half I see Tony start to over power Shane's older and roid free body. I see Shane holding on for dear life in rounds 11 and 12. The verdict will be Margarito win in UD fashion.

I think Margarito will outpoint the steroid cheat Mosley over 12 rounds. I
agree the first six rounds will be competitive but after that Mosley's punch
output will decrease and Margarito's will increase.

I think there's a slim chance of a corner stoppage in the late rounds.

Margarito should over power and maybe stop Mosley late. Mosley is probably the only drug cheat that has escaped with his reputation intact. I don't think the boxing media has even called out his lame my dog ate my homework excuse.

I'll be watching the Affliction MMA card, with Fedor Emilianenko headlining the card against Andre Arlovski. You should too!

At this point Sugar Shane is a re-tread who needs some re-fills, if you get my drift. His experience might help him last the twelve, and that's about it.

I wanna see Margarito turn his lights offs. Big KO style. The last generation of Afro American talent needs to be sent packing. 1st Jones by way of Calzaghe. Now Mosley via the tornado.

A half an hour to go. Can't wait! I see this fight being very competive and perhaps Mosely winning after six rounds. But after that, I sense the grinder that is Margarito will whip into gear and start to beat down the Roid cheater Mosely.

I Have also already started to down a case of Miller Lite, going on beer 3, cheers everyone!

Mararito's size -he's 5'11", his fitness, his chin, his determination and pride, his power and his decent boxing skills should be enough to win a decison. Mosley looks weaker and slower with the steroids though his skills are always excellent -especially his footwork. For Mosley to win he would have to dance, dance, dance and box, box, box for 12 rounds and I do not know that he has the fitness to stay away from that demon Margarito. Margarito came very close to beating that long armed freak Paul Williams and we all know Margarito ground Cotto to a halt. This fight could go either way for a decison but remember where the fight is and who is promoting it. In light of the location and the promoting company I think Margarito will still win via a decision.

Shane just got the KO. he looked great. I guess he want to prove he didn't have any roids in him. Man what performance.

It seems after a big win, most fighters have a letdown. Pavlik beats Taylor twice (admittedly by the skin of his teeth the second time) then has a huge letdwn against Hopkins. Same here with Margo.
Only the true greats like a Calzaghe or a Marciano can perform time and time again without a downer.

Boxing is a interesting sport. Anything can happean. I give full credit to Shane, he totally dominated Margo. I was pulling for Margo and thought he would KO Shane. Man, what a performance for Shane he fought a smart and great fight. He KO'd Margo is sensational style.

All those Mexicans legal and illegal watching will have drink mucho Coronas and Tequilia to drown their sorrows.

I think Margo time at the top was his win against Cotto. He will always lose with a fighter who thinks and is just as strong and has the will to win. Shane demonstrated this.

Regarding Welters I think Shane is the Man, Pacman is too small and others not as smart as Shane.

Ironfist, I feel your pain. But in boxing you have to give a man his due. If Shane won devoid of roids he has to be given the accolades and respect for a great performance.

Boxing is the one sport where the caste system gets no play especially if one can end the fight in that manner. In the end you just have to respect a man who can climb into the square ring and take care of business, especially in that manner and at that level.

That whole fight was shocking. Margarito looked slow and tired from the first round on. Shane took the fight out of him and gored him. Also the fight had the added drama of Margarito having an illegal substance in his wrap. Lampley was foaming at the mouth about a plastic substance being in Margarito's wrap.

Wow. Man, I know the Mexicans are hating it on this one.
Looks like Margarito wasn't ready, and Shane was. Maybe Pretty Boy sees a payday and comes back and Mosley takes him down too.
