    Shane Mosley Is A 4:1 Underdog, How Can He Win?

    Can anyone give a summary based on what they have seen of Shane and the style contrasts for this fight to see him winning, Im having a hard time with this. One thing to take note is, if fighting Cotto took anything out of Margarito, even in winning you never know how someone will look again. Thoughts...

    I just think Shane will get hit too much and Margarito is too durable. Shane is one tough ***er though so I am tipping him to last the difference. I definately think he has more of a chance than ppl are giving him. Still, I think Margarito will win a relatively close UD. Shane's main chance is to really pile up the points early IMO.

      Only way he wins is too stick and move. Don't look for damage, look for points. Jump in, flurry, then get outta the way. Even if **** ain't landin clean, throwin in bursts of 5 or 6 will then movin will score points and keep Marg from gettin his shots off. Forget about the body. If SSM steps in close, he's in range for the uppercut and for Marg's body attack. If he boxed all nite he could win, but I don't see it. Marg will tag him wit some hard ****, and his heart will take over and he'll start tradin, which will lead to Marg beatin him down.

        Only way Shane can win is by fighting the way Cotto did for the first half of the fight. If Shane has better stamina than Cotto, then he should have no problem getting off the ropes and fighting backwards. Cotto didn't potshot and I doubt Shane would too which will make the fight exciting. It all just depends on Shane's stamina which has shown to be solid against Cotto, but against Mayorga, he slowed at times. We'll see.

            You would think he would do this, but when has he ever fought like that, the fact he doesnt almost tells me he cant. He probably doesnt have the legs to do that which is probably the reason we never see him fight like that.

              I dont know why people put attetion to the odds. Those odds are based on how many people bet on who ever fighter, they are not made by boxing experts.

              Anyways, if mosley comes in top shape, and avoids getting tire he have a chance of winning a D, but i think he is down hill now, he look like ass against Mayorga. Isnt that funny, He look better losing to Cotto than Koing Mayorga. I think Margarito will impose his will, if he is not damage by all the punches he ate against Cotto, he will win,a SD!!!!!!!!!!!

                  Quit trying to spew bogus crap. Margarito walked through Cotto's weak punches off the back foot. You're trying to make it sound like Marg took a beating to hype up your beloved heroe.

                    Mosley has a very good chance of winning. He just needs to do for 12 rounds what cotto did for the first 6 rounds against Margarito. Margarito's gameplan is predictable and thus it is easy to formulate a strategy against him. This fight is Mosley's to lose.
