    take a look at his body

    his neck can barely fit in his shirt in the psot fight.
    I thought that was for the Oscar fights.

    Still don't get how those decisions were not overturned

      I thought he had a small chance to win because I thought Margs was not as good as many had suggested he was. I was of course surprised that he dominated Margs so thoroughly.

        I thought he was going to be destroyed and was actually fearing for one of my favourite fighters.

        I love boxing because of upsets like this.

          Mosley was juiced to the gills and Margarito was mentally out of the fight

          the outcome was just natural

            I remember thinking that Margo would destroy Mosley. I didn't think he should take the fight in the first place. Mosley should just retire cause I didn't want to see him get smashed around the ring and beat up to a bloody mess. Boy, was I wrong. I have to say that's Mosley most impressive performance IMO.


            Be honest did you think Mosley was going to pull the upset?
            I thought marg would beat Mosley bad. Mosley definitely surprised me in that fight. I think bro. Nazeem gave him a beautiful game plan.

              I thought that Mosley's legs weren't looking good in Mayorga fight. The movement was labored and I thought that he is close to being a shot fighter. That's why I was worrying that he may get hurt severely against Margarito. Boy, was I wrong...

                I barely saw any posts on here giving him a shot. Everyone thought it was a lamb to the slaughter.
                I picked Mosley to win by stoppage. I even got lucky and picked the round lol.

                I won't mention any of the fights where I was wrong haha.

                  I thought Marg was going to pound Mosley into the dirt! Odd how it works sometimes. I still remember laughing at Mayorga before his first fight with Vernon Forrest. Oops!

                    no, no one did. Maybe casuals who knew the name sugar shane and not margarito woulda picked shane outta nostalgia. But if you saw shane vs mayorga, and margarito vs cotto theres no way in hell you thought the fight would turn out like that. That said i knew shane could land bombs because Margs is so easy to hit....but damn....i NEVER expected shane to open up like he did.

                      I didn't think Mosely had as chance. Even watching the fight I thought Margarito was distracted by the issues with the wraps before the fight. The KO was priceless. You couldn't ask for a better ending.
