    Because Margo is a punching bag Mosley didn't waste any energy in the fight

      After the Margarito fight he never fought for like 16 months, he may have regressed a lot over that period.
      Also more cynically- PEDS.
      True shame the Berto fight got cancelled and Arum protecting Pacquiao from him he had a couple of good fights in him before the long layoff

        There were number of factors. Mosley went in there with a psychological advantage knowing that his opponent tried to cheat against him. He went in there thinking like *** this this muther***wr tried to cheat and jeopardize my life. On top of that Margarito was tailor made for him. A face first brawler vs A quick fisted boxer puncher. We know how that turns out most of the time.

          Yeah it was the Haiti earthquake which stopped it as well wasn’t it? I would’ve picked Mosley in that fight, I was never sold on Berto

            Mosley was on PEDs and Margo was a mentally destroyed man that night. That's why

            Floyd made sure Mosley was off the "sugar" when they fought, that's why he gassed after 2 rounds.
