    Winky was way stronger than Mosley .I dont beleive that will be the case against Clottey. People always remember the first Winky fight. But they never talk about the adjustmnets Mosley made in the second fight.

    As for Margo being mentally wrecked before the Mosley fight. Listen from the looks of that fight, he would have never touch Mosley. The first body punch Shane threw hurt Margo. Shane had a look that night even during the ring walk, like he wanted to kill Margo.
    I agree with you my man. Winky Wright is a far better fighter
    than Clottey because at least Winky with his defensive fight
    strategy, knows how to keep the pressure on and let his hands
    go, Clottey doesn't. Shane Mosley has Margarito's # hands down.
    I always said, all a fighter had to do was neutralize Margarito's
    pressure and he can be beaten fairly easy. Paul williams did it
    with angles, work rate and movement and Shane did it by going
    to the body early and tying Margarito up. ****m was the one
    that wanted Mosley to fight with that strategy, Mosley wanted to
    **** with Margarito because he knew that he could beat Magarito
    regardless. I think with ****m in Mosley's corner he would beat
    Cotto down if/when they have a rematch ESPECIALLY since Corner
    has no corner.

      Shane will do to Clotty what he did to Margachito as their styles are quite similar ,this is still a very good fight for fans and as Shane wants a good payday im sure HBO will pay for this fight to happen ,only Shane may not want to chance loosing for a small payday and hold out for a PPV fight .

        I agree man with everything in your post. Winky is a pressure fighter ask Mosley, Taylor, Vargas, Tito and others. Winky lets his hands go. Those are 2 things that Clottey doesnt do. I also think Mosley could have beaten Cotto the first fight. His stamina wasn't on point and I think he respected Cotto to much. Plus like you said a lack of a gameplan

          haha People are giving Shane way too much credit for his last fight. He's going to have to give at least one more performance like that before i'll believe the hype. Ever since Shane has moved up in weight, he's been afraid of getting hit and it causes him to pull off his punches. He put it together against Tony, how it did it remains to be seen.
