    Just wanted to point out that when you dehydrate to suck weight you will appear more ripped than you were before you dehydrated. Professional bodybuilders partially dehydrate themselves prior to competition for this very reason.

      I agree that he has lost a step but I still think that Mosley is far from washed up. True Mosley is never going too beat Winky or some of the bigger men but he is still a favorite too beat the P4P king PBF, in most peoples minds.

          If Shane made weight gradually and easily and if he had a good camp; by that if he wasn't gettin beat up by sparring partners which indicates he still has a lot left ... he is gonna stop Collazo. As good as Collazo is he should only be around for the entirety of the fight if he is running.

            It's funny how the writer thinks Mosley is shot. I don't think so but I know he's lost a step or two but it doesn't make you shot. He lost his confidence for a while but it seems he's regained it again.

                The article states the obvious - Mosley isn't the p4p top guy he was at 135, but to say he struggled with Cruz and Estrada when he won wide decisions (at least by 5/6 judges) is misleading. He's still only lost to two fighters ever. If Collazo wins tonight, it's a major upset, and just because this article exists, doesn't mean that it will be any less of an upset in actuality
                Crawfordsville huh, I'm in Lafayette.

                The fight was good, Mosley looked quick. And he was fighting a real slick southpaw.

                I'd like to see him in a couple more fights, maybe get a knockout.

                  There aren't a ton of us Hoosiers on the boards. Good to see another posting...

                  Is Purdue getting in the NCAA Tournament this year? I think they need Wednesdays game or a win at Iowa, and a sweep of their last three games to get in. Decent RPI, some quality wins, but a poor road record and average Big 10 record in a down year for the league...
