    So, they couldn't even get a live body, huh? This is a sad fight. Shane is 100% shot. Don't kid yourselves. It's Cintron all over again. They're coddling Canelo. How did Shane deserve this fight after his poor showing against Pacquiao? Do you remember booing that fight? That was at 147 and now Shane is older. Even if Shane isn't shot, which he is, he isn't a top ten junior middleweight like Alvarez and like Delvin.

    Booo.

    Well technically this fight being at 154 will be more helpful for Shane than struggling to make 147.

    Plus losing two wide UD's to unquestionably the two best fighters on the planet doesn't mean he's going to lose to everyone else. Few fighters have given more to boxing in terms of heart and commitment than Shane Mosley down the years.

    I can't believe the hostility he gets just because he was no longer good enough to hang with the p4p number 1 & 2 fighters.

    It's an interesting matchup.

    Shane had a pretty bad injury going into the Pacquiao fight as he was recovering from a torn ACL which caused him to compensate on the other leg which caused a worse blister to pop which he could barely stand on, which is why he was contimplating stopping the fight with Richardson. It really is a wonder he was able to stand all 12 rounds let alone use his legs. After that he hinted at retiring on Lopez Tonight.

    So if Shane comes into this fight at 100 percent he should do better than people think he will but at this point if he hasn't blasted out Alvarez early it will be a long night decision win for Canelo.

    +1 exactly.

    This fight asks questions of both fighters and that makes it an interesting one.

    No one is doubting Shane's career, but he is shot, man. Just watch his last three performances. I understand losing to Floyd and Manny doesn't mean he will lose to everyone else, but that also doesn't mean he isn't shot. More importantly, there were MUCH better opponents at 154. MUCH. This will be the second shot fighter that Canelo has faced in a row.
