Mosley was getting beat to the punch, couldn't find his target when he threw first, and got countered all night for missing. Mayweather isn't feather-fisted either. He was frustrated, he was old, and he was probably overtrained (Berto)...
I talked about that during the lead-up towards the fight. Mosley's last three opponents were: Cotto, Mayorga, and Margarito.
Not exactly slickness. They were guys that were prone to power punches. He went in against Mayweather, and found himself dealing with something entirely different.Comment

Of course, Mosley was on EPO.
The illegal/banned stamina booster-EPO helped Mosley have unfair advantages over Margarito.
That’s the reason why the fight was moved from Las Vegas (Nevada), to Los Angeles (California), because Nevada was gonna test Mosley for EPO, prior to fighting Margarito.
Originally the Margarito-Mosley fight was gonna taken place in Nevada, but about 7-8 weeks before their Jan. 23rd fight, a Federal Judge, out of concern for Margarito’s well-being, released Mosley EPO blood-doping calendar to the public, so that everyone can see how Mosley injects EPO through his stomach, and on which days he takes them, so that it does not come out in urine tests.
After Mosley EPO blood doping calendar went public, Nevada boxing commissioner-Keith Kizer warned Mosley that he would be blood tested for EPO prior to fighting Margarito.
So, Mosley, concerned that he would get caught, told his business partners and promoters-Oscar, and Richard Schaeffer to have the fight moved from Nevada to California, where Mosley had the full satisfaction of knowing that he would not get caught for using EPO.
The newer strains of EPO can only be caught with blood tests, within 44 hrs. of use, and California does not do blood tests. California only does post fight urine tests (which DOES NOT catch EPO).
This is why Margarito tried to use plaster inserts, cause he and his team, all knew that Mosley was “juiced-up” with EPO Steroids/Hormones that night and would not get caught.
and this is also why the California, then, commissioners allowed Margarito to try to use plaster inserts, cause they all knew that Margarito was being taken advantage of, and even Margarito’s very own promoter-Bob Arum, knew of Mosley’s “dirty” plot of having used EPO, but Arum “turned a blind eye” away, cause he was gonna profit, thanks to Oscar’s corrupt assurance, from the subsequent mega-fight (Mayweather-Mosley).Comment

Mosley used his PEDs against Margo, while Margo didn't get to use his. Therefore, Mayweather win against Mosley was tainted, as it wasn't the same Mosley that Tony lost too.Comment
