    I guess we're pretty unanimous. But the question is, at 33 can Mosley make a run to make his chance of Hall of Fame more likely?

      He beat Delahoya the first time clearly and that is a meaningful win.

      Mosley hasn't done anything for me to think he is hall of fame bound but I'm sure he will find a way in.

        No because he is going to lose to Margarito and Judah if they fight.

          I can't believe I would ever say this, but if Mosley were to face Judah, he'd be much slower than his opponent.

            That is the best way to put it now, he needs some more big wins

              I kind of thought so as well, but he does have 2 losses more but De La Hoya was also a true future hall of famer, which Mosley has clearly defeated once, and the other was really disputable.

                  Ken Norton never won the Heavyweight championship. It was handed to him after Ali was stripped for fighting Spinks. Holmes beat him in the title fight.

                  I was kind of being tongue and cheek with my Norton comment. Comparing Norton's fights with Ali to Mosleys against Oscar. In other words, neither guy did anything except having a great fighter's number.

                    I just hope gets his speed/reflexes/power back in the 140 lb division. If he does, he should have no problem getting big fights and winning them.
