Mosely vs Margarito - Who wins what rounds?

[BetterCallSaul]

How do you think the rounds will go?

1 - Mosely
2 - Mosely
3 - Margarito
4 - Mosely
5 - Margarito
6 - Margarito
7 - Mosely
8 - Margarito
9 - Margarito
10 - Margarito
11 - Mosely
12 - Margarito

Rounds 1-2: Margarito will be trying to hunt Mosely down, but he will eat jabs and right hands for the first couple of rounds as Mosely's quicker hands and quicker feet keep him out of Margarito's reach.

Rounds 3-4: Realising that Mosely can't hurt him, Margarito will start taking a few to give a few. He will win round 3 after landing the cleaner punches. Mosely will revert back to a jab and move style, and win round 4.

Rounds 5-6: In the 5th and 6th rounds, Margarito will start working Mosely's body more effectively, and will start landing some hurtful shots with a slightly weary Mosely against the ropes. He will win both rounds.

Rounds 7,8,9,10: Mosely will do the better work in the 7th, realising that he will need to do more damage to Margarito to win the fight. However, after tiring heavily from the earlier onslaught to the body, Mosely will not be able to deal with the constant pressure of a raging Margarito. Mosely wins the 7th but drops the next three rounds.

Rounds 11-12: Mosley gives it one last hurrah in an attempt to win the fight, going toe to toe with Margarito, and throwing wild shots. He just wins a close round 11. After giving his all in the last round Mosely will have nothing left to give, and Margarito will win the last round with Mosely against the ropes, and holding for most of it.

ehhhh... i think mosley will win, but my card is a draw (it must be a split win)

[hookoutofhell]

thats a pretty good breakdown of what might happen in the fight.

i think for marg you have to consider the following factors -
1) sugar shane is not the force he once was, thats apparent in his last fight at 37 he might not have enough in the later rounds. he also had to step on the scales twice maybe hes had a problem while making weight?

2) sugar doesn't do too good against taller fighters

3) sugar is quick and powerful but his hardest shots wont faze margarito and antonio knows it.

4) if cotto couldn't go to the body i dont see sugar as being able to do it.

5) sugar can be drawn into a toe-to-toe battle which is what marg wants

for sugar shane -
1) he is tougher than cotto is but has the skills to follow the blueprint for the first 7/8 rounds that cotto used to rack up the points.

2) sugar wont be backed up so easily as cotto was, he knows how to use lateral movement and imo will try and fight in the pocket and counter marg from here.

3) brother ****m has been there and done that. hes seen fighters like marg come before (ala pavlik) and will no doubt have formulated a good strategy, having someone like ****m in his corner will help shane as well as he'll be urging him to use his boxing skills than go for the tear up

4) sugar will be more motivated than ever before, the drug scadal has tainted his career and arguably his best win. whats more sugar being the proud warrior that he is might see a win against the man who defeated cotto as redeeming him for that loss.

i think even after weighing everything up i still can't make my mind up with this fight. earlier on i was leaning toward mosly but lately im not so sure. but thats what its like when you have a genuine 50/50 fight.

i think this fight might even be an early fight of the year contender

Good points.

I can see Mosely making a quick start and taking an early lead, but I think he will eventually succumb to relentless Margarito pressure.
