    Antonio Margarito vs Shane Mosley II

    Would anyone support this fight as an undercard or a WCB fight, at 154?

    They both are coming off of lopsided losses to Pac. In which its arguable that Margarito was more competitive against Pac.

    In Margarito/Mosley I, I think its fair to say that we did not get the 'real' Margarito in there (not talking about plaster, talking more from a mental aspect). Mosley rightfully capitalized on his opponents lack of focus and knocked him out.

    Neither fighter has looked impressive and certainly need some redemption if they continue to fight. Shane has an opportunity to look impressive against Margarito and show he still has 'something' left, and Margarito gets to show that his fight w/ Shane was a fluke.

    Thoughts?

    Perhaps Pac vs Margs and Shane at the same time?

        If Margarito can return to full health he should come back to boxing, but Mosley is quickly becoming a sideshow act. I really can't see Arum giving that fight up as an undercard, he would try to milk it as headlining another garbage PPV.

              Shane should fight Berto or Ortiz. I think he can win a fight against both of them. Shane has been in there with the best of them and has tasted true power (Pacquiao). Ortiz and Berto can't hit anywhere near as hard and would be a easy fight for Mosley.

                I think both guys would murder Shane at this point. Even Berto. I believe Pac when he said that his calf strain limited him, which resulted in less aggression on his behalf. Berto and certainly Ortiz would never stop coming after him. They are both pretty powerful, with Ortiz I think just as powerful as Pac. Moving up to 147 has this guy looking extremely strong. He's also quick which add to his power. I certainly do not want to see them two fight Shane.

                Shane has been done since the Cotto fight, these young guys would kill him I think.

                  Even Arum knows that Mosley/Margarito would get no buys on PPV. It'd be as embarrassing of a buyout as the Maidana/Morales. I think it'd make a great WCB or even BAD telecast. It gets to answer alot of the questions of the first fight and pretty much be a do or die situation for either guy.

                  Losing to Pac or Mayweather does not make someone's career go into a do or die scenario, however losing emphatically to guys at the next tier down and below does

                    Shane Mosley needs to retire.

                    He's done.
