Comments Thread For: Saul Alvarez Powers Past Shane Mosley To Retain

[Mr. Philadel]

I'm a big Mosley fan, and I even considered the idea that Shane would shock us all again against a more stationary target like Canelo. Shane is certainly way, way past his prime, but Canelo looked pretty decent in there. He's not ready for a huge fight, no way. But he's steadily making some improvements to his game and I think if he's given a few more decent fights, he'll show us even more of what he can become.

As for Mosley, that was a hard fight to watch considering he's a personal favorite warrior. Still, he came there with the intention of giving it his all. That I was pretty sure of even before the fight - he really seemed like he wanted it, and in the ring he proved that he did. He just didn't have the reflexes, the speed, or the power (semi-surprisingly) to make anything happen. I really hope the guy hangs them up. He's a legend, and obviously one tough son of a ***** to this day. But he needs to get out of there and start the rest of his life.

Plus, this is a much better way actually to end his career. Rather than a non-fight with Pacquiao, he actually gave it his all in a final fight with a future star and didn't embarrass himself. He gave it his all and didn't get knocked out or even knocked down. I don't think he should be embarrassed. We all know what prime Mosley would have done in there, he just needed this fight to see the difference for himself.

well said bro...green!!!

I wanted to cry for Shane. I know he loves the sport but he isn't a top fighter anymore, and there is nothing wrong with that, especially at 40 years old. I'm glad that he at least made it to the end of the fight though.

no doubt...a man tear rolled down the side of my face....not afraid to keep it 100!!!!

what is the Mexican head roll?

Canelo should be ashamed of tonight's performance. He's way too static and rigid.

GTFOH!! Really?? Wow!

I'd give it to Mosley on principle alone, he did more to win this fight than Alvarez. Mosley was robbed.

Are you ***ing blind or just ******!!!! Obviously you didn't watch the fight!! Canelo owned Mosley, there was NO controversy!!!

Well son we all knew that Mosley was shot, time to face the elite at 154 and c if you really have what it takes to be a Champion, don't let Sulaiman protect you any longer ordering those semi-finals, start cleaning up your division, there some heavy hitters at 154 that will not pull any punches like grandpap Mosley...
