    All in all, Tony better be 100% completely focused on vindicating himself. Win or lose, he also better be mentally prepared for both victory and defeat.
    Whatever happens with Tony, I think he needs an entirely new support system or else the fans won't accept him. He needs to prove that he was surrounded by the wrong people, and that he is real.

    Anyway, I don't see him winning another major title because I don't think people are going to want to fight him. He was already avoided a lot, I'm sure he'll be more avoided now that his rep is ruined.

      I think his age and his fighting style would prevent him getting to the top again, rather than the year ban..in CA at least.

      But if he is able to get licensed in NV, NY, FL, TX, AZ or TN I think he'll be competting for a title quicker than most people would think..

      Hate him or Love him Arum will put a string of fights togather for him.. he mentioned Baldomir, but i have a feeling that if PW gets bye Wright and Margs isn't suspended nation wide, they're could be a rematch then.. Margs will get the lesser of a 70-30 or 60-40 but he will probably get a shot..

      In time people will begin to forgive him as long as he gets back and competes just as hard with the same results prior to Mosley

        depends on what you mean by champion... if you mean a paper champ then probably yes. if you mean and elite undisputed champ, then probably no, not while mosley is still boxing.

          its sad to say, but there is absolutely no reason for pwill to fight margo now... unless margo gives pwill a large percentage of a large purse.

            He should be droped from the rankings, to show how serious this is.

            He can fight, but the ABC's should lower his rank, that in four years, he will beable to fight for the lesser belt of whatever divsion he is in, or most

            dangerous, so he will most likely lose. Put him in with Luis Collazo, in New York,

            100 % sure, he would lose.

              I can agree with that. Regardless, I think his best days are behind him.
