    Comments Thread For: Mosley-Mora: Result Creates More Questions, Not Answers

    By Ernest Gabion - Los Angeles - While of no major significance to the junior middleweight division, the main event was contested at 154-pounds, and held some significance for the careers of Shane Mosley and Sergio Mora. For starters, Mosley had his unbeaten record at Staples Center on the line. The venue is the same location where Mosley achieved two of his greatest career wins, against Oscar De La Hoya and Antonio Margarito. For Mora, a chance to give his career a boost with a win over a highly respected former three division champion.

    Initially the bout had the look of a walkout fight as both seemed unwilling to go the extra mile to press the action. The lull in action for the first stanza was hard for the audience, who saw knockouts in the previous three fights. The lack of excitement forced the boo birds to come out early. The smattering of boos were temporarily drowned out by the chants of "Canelo! Canelo! Canelo!" as Saul Alvarez made his way to ringside to watch the main event. [Click Here To Read More]

    terrible article about the main event

    while Mosley definitely looked older in this fight, he still won almost every round(I think he did). He pressed the action while Mora ran away, and wasn't effective. Mosley fought a much bigger and younger man. Mora couldnt even make the 154 weigh in , and was 10 years younger. Draw was bulls**t

        What a stinker of a fight!!! The only action was in the last 3 rounds! I thought Mosley won. Compubox says Mosley won. However, a draw at Staples Center promoted by Golden Boy kind of means that Mora won, doesn't it??? Mosley looked old too.

          this fight was so boring that neither guys deserved a 10point round...with the lack of either taking charge, i gave it a 9-9 score from round 1 til round 12...neither showed or convinced me that the fight meant anything to them

          the last couple of rounds were the only rounds that they actually fought to win...sad that it was out of desperation tho

            i dont know why the big deal with the scoring
            every round was close enough to score it one way or the other
            i wouldve been ok with 120-108 mora,120-108 mosley,114-114 tie

                Actually Mosely vs. Mora answered the main question which was "Was Shane out of his prime when Floyd fought him?" and tonights performance clearly it is clear..

                Shane is clearly on the down side of his career..

                  the fight was at junior middle. with the 24 rehydration rule in effect that's a natural occurrence like a featherweight fight but on fight night the combatants are lightweights & welterweights.

                  dont try to pose shane as some clear cut winner who did something great against a club fighter in order to prop up floyd.

                  You're too obvious vitocorleone/alhaymon/diosdominicano/andstill/bernardo.

                  misleading title. we all got our answers tonight. stop acting ignorant who ever wrote that article. shane has been shot since the mayorga fight, is past prime, & should retire.

                    you have to blind if you thought that fairy mora won running away, holding, fighting like a scared little girl. Then again im not surprised most of the tools on this board prolly think mora showed skills!!
