    Mosley-Ouma!?!?!

    That's right- it's a real possibility. Anyone here want to see the fight? Would you prefer Mosley-Ouma or Mosley-Baldomir?

    OUMA : "It's about fighting against the best in the industry. It looks like everyone has a fight lined up on their schedule and I haven't fought yet this year. The fight I really want is Cory Spinks because he beat the guy that beat me and I know he wants to fight me and he can sell tickets in St. Louis. But at the same time the promoters aren't making it happen so I think fighting Mosley would be a good thing. He's with Golden Boy and I'm with them as well so I think it would be easy to make that happen. Mad respect to Mosley for his last fight, he looked good against Collazo and I'm in boxing to fight the best. "

    MOSLEY: "If Ouma can make 147 pounds, that would be a fight that I'd take. I'm willing to fight anyone at 147. The Baldomir fight is still being talked about, but Ouma is a tough fighter and if he can make welterweight I'll definitely consider it."

    I'm bumping this so at least one person reads it. At least one. Maybe.

      I don't think this will happen. At the time of the Powell fight Ouma said he'd only go to 147 for Mayweather because he was the #1 P4P. Margarito was mentioned and he said he'd do it at 150 because he wouldn't go to 147 for anyone other than Floyd. Now that he fought at 160 it's much harder to go down to 147. This is algo kind of strange to me because he said he planned to stay at 160. Maybe he just really wants a big payday.

            This is a good fight but I'd rather see Ouma stay at 154 and fight either Spinks or Simms.I'd like to see Mosley-Baldomir mostly because it would most likely be a good fight and Baldy deserves another big payday.

              I would strongly prefer not to see this fight.

              Mosley needs to fight strictly box office fighters at this point.

              No wasting his last fights..

              He has a chance right now to really do something special.

                  While I agree it looks like Mosley is down to two possibilities- Baldomir or Ouma. Neither are 'box office fighters'. Yes, it does feel like he's wasting the end of his career but if you listen to what he says he has no other choices this year. It's either fight someone far below his level or don't fight at all- and he wants to stay active.

                    Why fight either of two guys who just caused dissent and booing for PBF and Taylor??

                    Neither could make for a very exciting fight in terms of popcorn.

                    Chins like theirs cause narcolepsy.

                    Bad performances HURT fighters. Look at Taylor, Calzaghe, PBF, ect....

                    Shane is not Floyd, and Shane is not Jermain - but still..

                    Not now. Do nothing instead.

                    Wait awhile..
