    Mosley has very good skills though, when he uses it. Against Margarito he showed great lateral movements, counter punches and a good jab.
    Actually Mosley beat him cause of steroids

              i think its amazing what shane was able to accomplish with such a shtty trainer. imo, if shane wouldve left his father behind earlier in his career, this wouldnt even be a debate.
              but as it were, ODH had the better skills.

                Oscar has a higher skillset than Mosley!!His punches are shorter,his jab was crisper,he had better balance!!He could plant his feet,or fight on his toes!!

                But Mosley is the better fighter!!More stamina,= in power,willing to fight to the finish!!Oscar would have been better if he could stay strong,but he had a horrible habit of weakening as the fight progressed!!

                  Oscar. Mosley's athletism gives him a lot of advantages through his career, but Oscar is more skilled, way better jab, best defense, equal offense, he adjust better, he's the best boxer of the two.

                      I think this all the time about his career. He might have gone undefeated, or have 3 less losses. Jack Mosley, hmmph, who else has he developed?

                      Exactly, talk about riding ones coat tails.
