        Didn't he box a lot against Mexicans or in Mexico?

        Mosley spent his whole amateur and professional career sparring Mexican come forward fighters.

          I have always said that the war with cotto, not only took a toll on cotto, but also took it's toll on margs.. I don't think margs was ever the same after that..

          Plus margs gets overrated by NSb as some monster but in reality he looked good vs fringe contenders but never dominated top guys,, santos, Williams, clottey were all able to handle his pressure..

          To answer the thread, I think margs was a little shot since the cotto war, and Shane could still crack.. With margs walking right into Shane's punches, it was only a matter of time before Shane stopped him..

            Mosley only beat Margs because his mind was not on the fight but the so call loaded wraps. Had Margs been clean with no so call loaded wraps and his mind fully focused he would have beat the living crap out of mosely

                Cause Marg is extremely overrated and the source of his power was discovered right before fight

                  Hand speed, good movement, body punching, and good power. Mosley had an excellent gameplan. He smothered a lot of Margarito's work and he got his punches off first.

                  I don't like to see all of these excuses about Margarito not being mentally there either. Shane was going through a divorce and had a new trainer (Nasim Richardson). He had many reasons to be unfocused but he still brought his A game on fight night. Margarito would always struggle with Mosley.

                    game plan worked!

                    Punch then hold so Margarito couldn't get off. Also, Margarito had just gone thru a war with Cotto and I'm sure that he was not all there after being caught with them bricks in his hands ...... Getting caught more than likely motivated Mosley as well.

                      It was slightly odd, especially after barely getting by a faded Mayorga the fight before.
