    I would be suprised if margarito DIDNT stop Shane...

    Thats no knock on shane though.

    I mean he's in his late 30's and his prime has come and gone. I think mosley is a wonderful fighter who has proven everything he needs to and then some in this sport.

    Prime for prime this would be a different fight but after the first 4 rounds i expect margarito to overwhelm shane who at this age i dont believe can handle 1200+ punches in a fight...

    i say he keeps pace and uses his speed for the first 4 but then begins to slowly fade and i'd expect a TKO (not a KO...mosley still has a great chin) of some sort late in the fight (sometime after the 9th round)...either by corner stoppge or ref stoppage but i seriously doubt mosley gets put down for a 10 count.

    Prime for prime mosley would beat him in my opinion...but at this stage margarito winning seems inevitable.

      As of now Shane has done more for the sport than Margarito. If he knocks Shane out its out with the old and in with the new. I doubt it happens.

        I don't think it will happen. Mayorga is a much bigger opponent at a bigger weight than Margo. Plus, I didn't see shane shaken up by him in thier fight, although he does not apply the same pressure. Shane has been through alot, and though maybe his timing is off, his heart and determination is not. He is really good shape and does not get discouraged, he has been in bad fights.

        I would give Margo his props if he stops Shane.

            it will be a good fight but margarito definetly has the upperhand and would be expected to win imo.

            can't wait for the margarito/cotto rematch!
            now that will be a fight!

              Exactly what I was going to type. Mosley has NEVER been stopped, so even now, I'd give Margarito big time props for doing it.

                Mosley is past his prime,no doubt.But having a win over him on his resume will look good!
