mosley fighting vargas and mayorga at that stage of their careers is similar to what roy jones is doing with omar sheika and lacy.
a few years earlier the fights would have mattered but not at the point it happened.
you have to remember how mayorga and vargas was looked upon at the times it happened.
having that questionable win over collazo didn't help people's view of mosley as well.

I wouldn't say ****s all over...
possible robbery
another possible robbery
low blows
B to C level fighters
p4p #3
true
true
possible robbery
in MSG... he got his azz whupped by margo and margo is a slow, loopy, face-first, unskilled, fighter
to the 2 best fighters of this generation.
as far as we all know, nothing illegal.
nope, we talking about it
atleast hatton went out on his shield. cotto quit
cotto shouldn't have lost to margo anyways. getting beat up by an unskilled brawler is shameful.
Cotto is a much, much better fighter than Hatton. Hatton would get absolutely pulverized by Margs. Cotto's level of opposition is excellent, Hatton fought C, D and F level fighters for 38 fights before taking out an old Tszyu. He had an alright run after that but got his ass starched by Floyd and then blasted out by Pac.

the vargas fights were wars. shane didn't KO collazo. they thought they caught mosley at a good time.
shane didn't fight mayorga yet.

regardless, cotto should've boxed circles around margo and taken zero damage against a margo, ala mosley.

Originally posted by Pullcounter View Postdoesn't matter. fact is hatton fought some... cotto none.
how so? tszyu left on top. he came back and beat his #1 contender in mitchell thus reclaiming his spot.
The first question is more or less a worthless question by itself. Losing to opposition, generally, doesn't improve your standing. Because, as of yet, Cotto hasn't fought Pac/Mayweather there's no point in bringing them up because there is no way that he could do worse that what Hatton did against them.
Tszyu hadn't fought in 2 years before that Mitchell fight. And that fight was a gimme less than 3 rounder against a fighter who he had defeated before and was scared to death of him. Not exactly the best way to take ring rust off. Plus he was pretty old for his weight class.
