[Gandalf]

Im rooting for Mosely, but its just one of them fights. You just hope he can pull it off.

Well guess whos motherf!!!!g craptop is having a s!!!fit ?I might just miss this one,on here with my Saddo brothren,...my sanctuary.I'll be seeing in on the Tellie but everything else is Fubar right now.Running to work if this one go's....minute by minute .

I can not wait for this fight.I am no fanboy ignoring reaity and have thought long and hard on this one.Against Cotto I was 99.5% sure Tony would take him out (With respect,Cotto is not done).......Shane on the other hand and in my opinion is a VERY live underdog.Mass experience,Fighting at a higher weight for sometime,Still has the fast hands with much pop,Tenacity,Chin,exp.I do belive Margarito will come on strong for a victory BUT I can see a scenario in which Shane stuns him very early .I think Shane needs to assert himself,step inside of Tonys range and go for the gusto.Enevitably.....I see Margaritos volume,body shots and sheer pressure backing Shane off on his heels leading to a Descision win but this is no freebie.Mass respect to both,they will know that they have both been in a battle come Sunday A.M Tonight,My sig rules

This is going to be a really entertaining fight, I think that Margarito will win a UD. Mosley's experience is going to make this one interesting, he knows that he will have to use his speed and ring craft to try and outboxing Margarito. If he can do that I feel that he will cause problems for Margarito early on in the fight and I wouldnt be surprised that he wins the first 4-5 rounds. When Margartio hits his high punch rate output with his relentless pressure this is where we will see if age has hit Mosley.

Margarito has a really tough fight tonight, but after the Mayorga fight Mosley has shown that age is catching up with him and he didnt seem to have a good enough workrate. This is where I think Margarito is going to do his damage and I think hes going to take a UD. Margaritos power may not be as much as Mayorgas but his work ethic with combinations to the head and body is what Mosley will find hardest to deal with.

Im looking forward to this fight and im staying up for it. Margarito will win this and I hope he moves on to much more memorable fights in 09

3am UK time on setanta sports I think it is, see you then

I have come to enjoy Margarito this past year and he is one of my top 5 fighters. I get this nawing feeling that Shane is going to do something special tonite.

He has a 1in advantage in reach over Marg and will probably be the heavier of the 2 come the fight.. Shane looked in absolute spectacular shape, not drained, not tired looking.

Mosely can take a shot just as good as Margo and like I mentioned already, Shane seems to have this invisible armor that he wears in the ring, I just see him able to absorb margo's shots, counter with sharp- stiff punches that Slow Tony down enough for Shane to work at his own pace. I see Tony being dropped and losing a SD.

Shane has shown time and again that he does have 1 punch power as well as accumulative.. Mosely is more durable than Cotto and wont wilt, he'll stand his own just fine.

I just feel that Tony cant keep up that volume and take shots his whole career, that chins going to start showing some dents, and a guy like Mosely can certainly leave his mark

I just worry about the Flack Tony will catch if he loses

Margarito to stop him in 10 tonight. Hope I'm wrong because I like Shane alot, he's one of the nice guys of the sport but honestly, he looked horrible against Mayorga. Apart from the last round masterclass I thought he allowed himself to look foolish at times because he legs wouldn't move like they used to. Against a guy with Tony's workrate, I see it costing him as his legs are gunna have to work very hard tonight.
