    both of these guys had good boxing skill back in the day but back then they were alot more of the aggresive type fighter. this fight could have been a real shootout a few years ago but both of them have slowed down and are trying to do something that is really not them. with shane moving and boxing a little to much and vargas doing his best imitation of the mayweather defense, this fight looks to be pretty boring. shame it did'nt happen years ago...

      well gatti's known for being exciting, no matter what. mosley was never really exciting and vargas isnt exciting anymore.

      when you get two cautious boxers in the same ring, dont expect a war.

        i dont have much interest in this fight.. vargas is further gone than shane.. shane just gave winky a good scrap in their rematch... vargas has been doing nothing..

          This has 2 point of view. If the old vargas and old shane comes this is going to be a great fight but if the new vargas and mosley shows up this will be the worst fight of all time.

Even though they are not the fighters they used to be, both these guys, particularly Mosley, have always fought real fights, always looking for what the public wants. Jones-Hopkins is another case of this, and even though it should've happened at the turn of the milennium, at least it's going down.

            Right. And with so much on the line(title shots an' careers) I wouldn't write these fights off just yet.

                  If Mosely works the body he's gonna stop him late. Vargas chin isn't great & he tends to fade a bit late. Mosely's speed & solid chin are a couple of factors that have me leaning towards him.

                      Once again the problem with boxing today. This is a fight that I would have love to watch a few years ago. Now I would only watch if there is nothing better on tv.
