Exactly! Even if we are to assume Mosley is 100% shot and won't surprise anyone; he's still crafty and has never been stopped, and has beaten as many great fighters as Alvarez has live bodies. Had Mosley not looked quite so pedestrian in his last couple of fights people would probably be wondering whether Alvarez is ready for the step up. To say that this is a dissapointing move from Alvarez is really quite bizzare imo, this is how the sport works.
