    Mosley has always been a B-Side and was never that big a star from a fan grabbing extent. He is well known, and if you showed someone who knows a little about boxing a picture of Mosley they would recognize him. In Southern California Mosley should be able to draw, infact Mosley-Margarito probably would have done well in the Staples Center.

    I think the fight would do well but because of them together, not really one person drawing over the other.

          margarito is the bigger draw would you agree? Read my first posts and the numbers from their fights.

            Not being from So. Cal., how would having the Mosley fight at the Staples Center of the Home Depot Center be better? They're both in the LA-area, right? Is there a larger black population close to the Staples? I'm being serious...just wondering.

              mosley has never been a big draw.he isn't in the position he thinks he is.and being old doesn't legitamize his claim to more money cause he's gonna retire soon.this is not a charity.this is boxing.marga deserves more.

                  Quit living in the year 2000 please. Mosley is not a factor anymore at 37 he's just wanting to make one last paycheck. His fight against mayorga was un-impressive to say the least and by the tone of his voice after the fight he himself knows it's time to hang em up. If shane thinks he deserves more or half of the money for a margarito fight, then shane needs to get off the steriods because it's making his head big. Lets see shane:

                  You just had your fight with mayorga moved from one date to another because HBO knew you couldnt compete with a card on showtime. Not only that they changed the card from ppv to free hbo because they knew it wouldn't sell. They figured this fight wouldn't sell in vegas so the best hope is to put the old guy in front of his home crowd in Los Angeles and draws a reported crowd of 5,000 fans and people there said it was about 3,500 Including Earner who covered the fight for boxingscene, and maxboxing. So in your hometown Mr. big name shane against a very exciting fighter in mayorga you bring 3,500 people to watch the fight. Yes the same mayorga that is a household name that people like to see fight. The same mayorga that brought over 500k ppv buys in each fight against dlh and tito. And yes shane the same mayorga that vargas was able to get a ppv date with and sell 300k ppv's!! yet only 3,500 come to watch mayorga fight YOU free on HBO???

                  Lets rewind to over a year ago when the lesser known Margarito faces a still relatively unknown paul williams who at the time NO ONE BUT hard core BOXING FANS KNEW WHO HE WAS and still is not a good sell. AT THE SAME VENUE MARGARITO BRINGS A RECORD 8,000+ FANS!!! How do you explain that? Now since that fight he's fought at madison square garden, Atlantic city, and The MGM Grand Capturing Two world Championships in the process and Knocking out the undefeated welterweight champion of the world in a fight that many say saved boxing that can be argued as the fight of the year and does 400k plus ppv's in a struggling economy.

                  and mosley is the better draw?
                  mosley has never been a draww... who ever says the opposite knows **** about boxing...

                  but..........

                  hes definitly more known than margarito... and read welll known... not even a draw....

                  margo should take the fight.. hes gonna ko shane...

                  prove the promoters that his market value have gone up since his last fight.... to see if he can really bring good numbers.... thats the only way to do it..... if not.. the offers are gonna keep going low low low.... he rejected goosen.. now gbp... if he wants to wait a year to get another good paycheck.. thats a bad sign...

                  could you imagine if he mange to LOSS to cotto..???

                  fighting again @ el rancho ball room ... jesus man... TONY ... KNOCK SHANE OUTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!... AND move on with your career... it seems that all the moves from margo are based on WHAT COTTOS IS GONNA DO

                  and dont hate.... i already stated.. that margs ko shane.... and that he deserve a better pay of what his being offered...

                    I was just using Staples as an example of a large arena is around L.A. They both have pull in California and Staples would be a good choice in January.

                    It is hard to say about Margarito, he does have some pull but can he draw eyeballs by himself. I really think this fight would have helped Margarito's long term appeal and raised his stock even more. To me its just a bad career move, because I still think Margarito can beat Shane. In terms of right now yea I would have to say Margarito has a little more shine. If Margarito does nothing between now and a Cotto fight how does that help him though.

                    What is Margarito going to do now fight some scrub? I do not see who Margarito could really fight, right now that would be better then Mosley. I just do not understand the move.
