Re: Which fight would you prefer to see:Shane v Zab or Shane v Mayorga?
Yeah that's a good point,Danny G,you asked which weight would this fight be at,I'd say 154,because I don't see Mayorga coming back to 147,otherwise he would have done so already as all the big fights are there. 154 is the lowest he can go.

Mosley doesn't have the defensive skills against guys who come forward to defend himself, against Mayorga, who would maul him.
I like the questions you raise about a Zab v Shane fight but I don't agree with your analysis of a Mayorga v Shane fight. There is a possibility that Mayorga mauls him,but remember,Oscar didn't have defensive skills at all and he managed to beat Mayorga. The question for me would be,couldMayorga maintain his stamina and assault Shane for 12 rounds?I don't think so,I think he'll gas early and Shane will win on points.

I duno about that Gamo . If you watch the fight again you'll notice how tight Oscars defence was . The commentary pick up on it. He was parrying alot of shots and reading Mayorgas wild swings much better than Forrest and Vargas managed to . The only decent shot I remember from Mayorga was a right uppercut which Oscar gave a nod of appreciation to .
When Oscar tries to copy Floyds defence I think he's awful yeah . Sturm just punched stright through it but on the night in question Oscar played a very smart defensive game.

Are you sure bro?I'll take your word for it,I just remember Oscar basically outgunning Mayorga and Ricardo landing a few flush punches but them not having any effect.Maybe I'm wrong.
Re: Which fight would you prefer to see:Shane v Zab or Shane v Mayorga?
It was the best ive seen him defensively ( Tito aside ) Maybe its cuz Mayorgas shots are easy to see coming so it exagerated Hoyas defenceive skills . I duno . He was very good that night though considering he just took two beatings off Hop and Sturm .
