Mosley has freakish strength for someone his size and will in no way be bullied over. If Mosley has anything left to give, Alvarez would be the perfect showcase opponent. He's refined his defense but he's still very flatfooted, very deliberate and if Mosley can keep him from working in combination a la margarito then he poses a real big threat. I'm not even sure the Mosley from the margarito and mayweather fights are all to different from one another. I think it's all about the styles. <br />

Alvarez is what, 22 years old? Do not write off Shane Mosley. Not in this fight.
