    Mosley vs. Mora from espn.com

    [Comment From Andre ]
    Do you think Mosley will get a chance to fight the winner of pacman vs margarito at 154?

    10:38
    Franklin McNeil: Not at 154. Keep in mind that Mosley is a Golden Boy fighter. It will be hard to make a fight with any Top Rank-promoted guy, regardless of weight class.

    do you think the fight will go the distance or will it be a knockout and who wins

    10:41
    Franklin McNeil: Yes. If it ends early, it will be Mosley stopping More. I don't see Mora knocking out Mosley, even at 154.

    can alvarez even make 147?

    10:43
    Franklin McNeil: Yes he can and has fought at 147 numerous times. That's where he hopes to capture a major world title. It's also where the most money is.

    do you think mayweather will ever fight pacman

    10:46
    Franklin McNeil: I've given up hoping that fight happens. I will get excited if a contract gets signed, not before.

    final prediction?

    10:47
    Franklin McNeil: I am leaning toward Mosley, but not by much. Mora should not be counted out in this one. He's a good boxer.

    10:50
    [Comment From Gary B ]
    What's the chances of Mora getting inside of Mosley?

    10:50
    Franklin McNeil: Mosley needs to get close to Mora, not the other way around.

    10:51

    should mosley stay at 154 or go back to 147 if he wins?

    10:51
    Franklin McNeil: Go back to 147.

    what are chances Amir Kahm moving up and fighting Pacman if he beats Maidana?

    10:54
    Franklin McNeil: Zero.

    10:55
    Franklin McNeil: Mora coming out to Warriors. Ron Artest is walking out withn him.

    11:00
    Franklin McNeil: Mosley and Mora are in the ring. Introductions are being made. Par Russell is the referee.

    11:03
    Franklin McNeil: The fight has started.

    11:07
    Franklin McNeil: Mora looks uncomfortable thus far. There was little action in the first round. Mosley did stalked Mora. I give it to Mosley, 10-9.

    11:09
    Franklin McNeil: Mora showing Mosley too much respect. Fans are starting to boo.

    11:10
    Franklin McNeil: It's only the second round, but this fight is boring. Mosley wins second round, 10-9.

    11:11
    [Comment From compuboxinc@aol.com ]
    mora threw just 30 punches in round one- he avg'd 53 per round in his previous 8 fights at 160/154 lbs.

    11:12
    Franklin McNeil: Mora is literally running from Mosley in the third round This is bad.

    11:15
    Franklin McNeil: This is brutal. Round three is in the book. Mosley wins it 10-9. Everyone is waiting for the fight to start, waiting for Mora to start fighting.

    11:16

    Frank, how many fights do you think Mosley has left in him?

    11:16
    Franklin McNeil: Quite a few, if he can get more guys like Mora.

    11:18
    Franklin McNeil: Mosley opts to fight inside, giving Mora a chance to land punches. Mora throws a few punches, but is holding most of the time.

    11:18
    Franklin McNeil: Mora cut over the right from an accidental headbutt.

    11:19
    Franklin McNeil: Mora fights after seeing his blood. Mosley wins fourth round, 10-9, but Mora might start fighting now.

    11:22
    Franklin McNeil: This is a horrible night for Mora. He is hurting his career. This fight had no business being on pay-per-view.

    11:24
    Franklin McNeil: This is a shame. Mosley wins the fifth round. What else is new? This is one of the worst fights I have seen this year, maybe the worst -- considering it's the main event of a PPV. $44.95.

    11:26
    Franklin McNeil: Nice left hook from Mora. That was the most excitement of the fight thus far. Mora, however, has gone back to running and holding.

    11:27
    Franklin McNeil: This fight is so boring I won't bother scoring it anymore. I have Mosley winning all six rounds. If Mora wins a round I will let you guys know.

    11:29
    Franklin McNeil: Hard right hand by Mora. That's what this fight has turned into: hoping Mora lands a big punch to generate some excitement.

    11:32
    Franklin McNeil: Mosley's aggression is actually forcing Mora to fight and he's landing a few punches. I will give Mora the seventh round. Me landed nine punches according to CompuBox, his highest number of connects thus far in the fight.

    11:32
    Franklin McNeil: The fight still stinks.

    11:34

    Down goes Franklin! down goes Franklin!

    11:35
    Franklin McNeil: Best, most accurate call of the night. I'm done. This fight is horrible and has beaten me down. It's unbelieveably bad.

    11:38
    Franklin McNeil: Mosley is doing his best to bring some action to the fight. He is chancing Mora and throwing punches when the opprtunity presents itself.

    11:43
    Franklin McNeil: Mora is fighting hard in the 10th round, landing shots. Mosley is helping Mora by staying inside. This is the best round of the fight.

    11:44

    What round is it?

    11:44
    Franklin McNeil: The fight in now in the 11th round.

    11:46
    Franklin McNeil: There are now fighting!

    11:47
    Franklin McNeil: One more round left. I gave the 11th to Mora.

    11:49
    Franklin McNeil: Mosley has forced Mora to fight.

    11:52
    Franklin McNeil: Cong**** to Shane Mosley for making Sergio Mora fight. But for Mosley's decision to press the action, especially the final four rounds, this fight would have been a disaster.

    11:53
    Franklin McNeil: Official scores: 115-113 Mora; 116-112 Mosley; 114-114.

    11:54
    Franklin McNeil: I had it 116-112 for Mosley.

    11:56
    Franklin McNeil: I'm at a loss for words. I can't believe what just happened. Mora says he thought he won the fight.

    11:57
    Franklin McNeil: Based on what you guys are saying, I know it's not me who is way off base.
