PLEASE NO! WHY IS SHANE DOING THIS? Money? Legacy?

[dajabgameisill]

In my opinion ... shane is good... why is he fighting margarito ... ??? he knocked out Vargas (who beat winky) and he knocked mayorga (who beat forest) he lost a close decision to cotto (in which i thought shane pulled out the win) ... i think he should just say Fug it and retire... no reason to take a margarito fight ... the biggest thing is shanes legs ...they will not be able to hold up for 12 rounds ...


Thoughts?

Why is Margarito doing this when he could have fought Williams???

i think shanes stamina is alot better than cotto and his conditioning, footwork, chin and speed are all better than cotto as well.

if i was shane id think i could pull off the upset and defeat margarito, cotto was halfway there, he had racked up the points and all he needed to do was make sure he was elusive and smart enough to stay away from marg.

sugar shane is quicker than cotto, smarter than cotto and imo will have alot more in the tank come fight night. hes at the the end of the rope and he knows that he wont have alot more big fights left in him.

yes he had a poor showing last time around but i think he knows that his style is tailor mae for marg. sugar shane to take it via SD.

call me crazy but shane is really smart, i could see him taking a split decision. its an intriguing matchup. shane doesnt dodge!

I think Mosley can pull the upset. Hes doing it because hes a real fighter who fights anyone. Unlike most boxers today, he really does fight for legacy.

Atleast he can say he fought the best, unlike some of todays boxers.

Mosely v Margarito= Hopkins v Pavlik?

Mosely v Margarito= Hopkins v Pavlik?

Good point, same things were being said when that fight was made.

Personally, I can see Shane pulling it off, although Margs will probably start the deserved favourite.

Shane is in a win win situation, ready made excuses if he loses, all the glory any man could want if he wins.

On terms like that, he'd have been a fool to say no, and one thing Mosely isn't, by any means, is a fool.

Wow, starting to like this guy.
Guess some boxers still have heart(and I thought it died).
Hope he wins.
