Thread: Can anyone pick the winner of this fight?

Shane vs Roberto at 135

And it would be esp great if those of you that choose to weigh in would speculate as to how the winner would pull of the victory and what kind of victory.

I find it difficult to pick against Shane unless posed with an ATG.
His speed, power and aggression was at its peak and at that weight he was more physically imposing than nearly any man I've seen.

Not only does he take this win, in my opinion, I also feel its a KO.

I agree

Duran beats anybody at Lightweight. And that includes Mosley. Duran would have no respect for Mosley. Mosley will go in there trying to make him respect him. Which is exactly what Duran would want.

Duran beat better fighters Esteban De Jesus, Buchanan, and was champion for a longer time. He would just about beat Shane on points.

Buchanan made MOsley not look invincible but he didn't just about beat Shane, and De Jesus wasn't better htan Mosley. However, I still think Duran wins, Mosley has no skills on the inside, nor is he good enough on the outside. I think Duran takes Mosley through hell for 12-15 rounds.

Yep.Light seemed like a pit stop for Mosley,Blazing speed and pop,great finisher at light but level of comp not so hot Imo.Left me wanting,wish he would have cleaned it out.A notch above fresh Stevie Johnston (??) and Orzubek,Imo good threats but jumped up for the mega match.Duran too well rounded at light.

You would have to favour Duran, I have trouble thinking of anyone at 135 that could have beat him.

While we are at it; Floyd may of beat him on style /avoidance and getting him flustered out of his game, but Mosley would have been caught alot comming forwards,eventually taken to war and punished later on into a tko at least.

Well I don't know about ANYBODY but Duran definently beats Shane to a pulp.

Benny Leonard would have given Duran a good tough fight.

Duran destroys Mosely inside of 10.

Mosely being stopped by a lightweight is just hard to imagine esp when he's only been hurt once. never stopped. Seen a lot of duran fights, still stand by my opinion that he is the most overrated fighter of all time...
