    From a strategic standpoint it's really this simple in my opinion.

    If Vargas is in his best shape, he wins the fight. If he is not, and has an off gameplan, Mosley outpunches him via dec.

    I think there is no doubt that Fernando is coming in tip top shape but I dont think that necesarily spells victory for El Feroz.

    This is a close fight to call but here is how I believe it shakes down...Comando Nando will jump on Mosley early and entice the kind of brawl that few are expecting...Nando will expereince alot of success early turning back the clock and making us all forget about the boxing fraud he was portraying in his last few fights.

    Oh Poor Nando...sure he will have his moments but he is going to do what he does best in really big fights which is get caught, Mosley wont crush him with 1 shot but he will break away the body and eventually late in the fight with the score almost even (an Shane coming on hard) Vargas will give in and he will go down in flames eerily similiar to the way he did against Oscar and Tito.

    It will be one helluva fight!

      I don't care, it's still a very intriguing matchup....of styles, & to see who has what left.
      At their best.....Vargas couldn't touch Mosley, ability-wise.
      But now, with their levels having dropped...it becomes a matter of who has more left , & whether or not Vargas will be able to use his natural size to grind Mosley down.

      My feeling is.....Vargas is the vulnerable one. Mosley's not what he once was, but he doesn't appear frail. He also isn't as easy to tag with right hands as Vargas has always been.
      I see Shane's right hand landing repeatedly on Vargas....& that will be the big difference. Mosley will pour it on in the end, but Vargas makes it to the final bell.

      Cant disagree with this analysis.

      I think Shane's body attack may not look so flashy in the early rounds but it will pay off down the stretch-it will be all Vargas can do to make it to the final bell-Shane will be hard charging in the end-he has to be hungry for a KO.
