    There is no way in hell that a Mosley rematch needs to be made. Weight drained or not, it wasn't some lucky punch in the early rounds which got him - Margs got thoroughly trounced and outclassed for 9 rounds. Those kinds of circumstances simply do not warrant a rematch IMO.

    And no, before anyone says "But Mosley rematched Forrest and Wright!", I don't think he should've faced them again. He, too, got trounced and should've stayed far away from those 2 guys after losing.

    Cotto, on the other hand... I had that match 95-95 going into the 11th, and everyone agrees it was close as hell. Hence, definitely worthy of a rematch. I don't think the outcome will be much different (although I'd predict a decision this time), but it needs to be made because of how entertaining it was.

      Their is no saying either how Margo is gonna perform now. He took a lot of punishment in the Cotto fight and couldn't fill a November date cause he wasn't able to heal the damage that he took. He got a beat down from Mosley and you clearly see in the first two rounds as Mosley hit him on the body how much did it damage it did by Margo's facial reaction.

      Margo fans might not get what they want if he returns

                    lets be honest... margo can't hang at 154. all those cats are as strong and as big as him. without his size advantage margo's style is useless. that's why mosley destroyed him.

                      He still beats most of the top Jr. Middles in my opinion. He was even in size with Cintron and Martinez and several others. Look what happened to them?? He lost to Williams BUT IT WAS A CLOSE FIGHT. Shane is a HOF type fighter and none of the guys at 154 come close to him.
