Mosley ducks Margarito for the 2nd time

[Zocalo]

i think mosely and berto would be great...how did forbes get a title shot with a loss..

Berto wanted to be protected in his first title defense.

[BALLISTIC]

Mosley looked impressive in spurts, but he is definitely dhowing signs of slowing down.

dude ur avatar am i seeing it correctly..damm pacman look huge...looks like a true welter..compare to JMM

[Shalafi]

LOL I knew Shane would pull that ****, there is no way in hell Shane wants to end his career getting beat to shreds against a monster like Margarito. Much respect to you Shane, I like you but you pussied out like a biatch

See the post fight interview. Mosley backtracked on his talk of fighting Margarito.

LOL... that's the second time I've seen two boxing senior citizens at the end of their rope (DLH and Mosley) "duck" Margarito. What's the world coming to.

[sitai]

he didnt backtrack..
larry said cotto and marg are prob gonna fight next year.. so who do you want?

then he said he has to take time to think because he's 37 and can't wait 15 months to fight..

Pacquiao's stepping to 147lbs to fight a De La Hoya is is 5 years removed from his prime, why not fight the #1 Welterweight in the world instead?

He said it's a possibility of a rematch next Summer and Arum said he's planning a fight for Tony in January, admit it, he ducked him yet again.

[-EX-]

He should fight Forrest and call it a day IMO. I think Berto at this point is too fast for Shane. It'd be close but I think Berto would edge him closely. Margarito's easy to hit but I think Shane will fight Margarito's fight. Shane isn't too difficult to hit anymore either and he aint running from Margarito. I doubt he has the power to hurt Margarito and I know he'd duke it out. I'm glad Shane backtracked.

[sitai]

when would they fight then?
you can't expect shane to be ready by january...
margs busy in the summer...
marg took the rest of the year off after his last fight with cotto so he'll do the same next year so mosley would have to wait till 2010!!
(he will be like 40 yrs old)

I think Pac and his team have no illusions about conquering 147. They're admitting they are only taking this fight because DLH is on the slide and they think they have a legit shot at a major upset. Like you pointed out, Pac's the one moving up 2 divisions north of 135 (where he's not even fully tested yet). He's too small and doesn't belong at 147. That's why there's a lot of talk of a mismatch and you'll only make yourself look foolish asking that kind of question...lol.

That's not really the same as Margarito who's in his prime and who's in his league size-wise calling out a washed up DLH now, is it? In that fight he'll be the big favorite while almost nobody is expecting Pac to reach 12 rounds against DLH, let alone win it...please.
