    Wow.

    that is the only word that can accurately describe what happened.

    All credit to Shane Mosley and his team for devising a smart and effective game plan, that was executed beautifully.

    I've never seen such a raucous crowd get so quiet in such a short amount of time.

    20820 people shut the fuck up in a hurry.

    I felt bad for Mosley who got booed IN CALI. He got the last laugh though.

    He made Margarito look like Antonio Diaz.

    Not to sound racist.... but Mexicans just cant fuck with Shane. Forget Manny, Shane is the TRUE Mexican killer.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    Bit by bit,.. you're unravelling more and more details of your true inhibitions,..not that they were really ever inconspicous to begin with..:crafty:

    Yeah, cos Shane has put so many HOF Mexicans out. :boohoo:

    I just re-watched the fight and while Mosley fucked him up, Margarito simply could do nothing with what he brought to the table. Shane tied him up early to stifle the Margarito body attack and it worked. No points deducted and the flow sufficiently slowed.

    On the outside he did what he should have done; pound the fuck out of Toni while the space is there. It was ugly at the end.

    i always thought that mosley lacked that signature win great fighters have. sure, he beat oscar an impressive fashion the first time, but this win over margarito trumps them all.

    he's a LOCK for the hall of fame.

    People talk about Shane's holding, but as the fight wore on Margarito was the one initiating the clenches. He also went into retreat mode at times.

    I think the shot that started it all was around 1 minute left in the 8th round. Margarito hits Shane with a good overhand right, you see Shane frown as if to say "damn, I shouldn't have gotten hit with that." Margarito presses forward then runs into a left hook then a HUGE uppercut to the body. Margarito comes forward, freezes then steps away from Shane, seemingly hurt from the bodyshot. Shane backs him to the ropes then they tie up...once they come off the ropes that starts the sequence when Shane grazes him with that crazy ass right uppercut then lefthook which badly hurts Tony.

    Complete destruction of Margarito.

    Tam, like I said before, Marge is basically a bum with a good chin and stamina.

    A cheating bum too.

    Mosley also used his head pretty effectively there, which might have kept Margarito from getting too comfortable close.

    I kept telling everyone that Margarito has been getting killed in sparring and was almost knocked out a few times. I picked him to win, but I didn't realize that the Cotto fight took so much out of him.

    You know what? everything to the body made Margarito wince and I am talking I could see it watching the fight on television. He has an incredible chin but can't take shit to the body. Cotto should get 3 free body shots with plaster gloves in the rematch and if Marge can continue they fight on.:stir:

    By who? I heard Margarito and Angulo really go to war in sparring. Same thing with him and Soto-Karass.

    Shane was smart to go the body.. early on he landed a couple viscious body shots and it looked like it hurt Margerita a bit

    Laugh it up Reed but you and I both know your bitch boyfriend Floyd ran scared for years. Don't be coming on here posting laughy emoticons as a way to tell people "I told you so". Fact is, your hero Floyd Fairyweather never fought his battles and didn't want no real challengers. While he goes day and night embracing his little record in private and hoping people will remember his bitch ass while the true warriors of the sport are gettin' down and doing what we, the fans, pay to see them do. All the while, FagWeather is blowing his money on crap and embarrasing himself and his race.:lol: And his pops saying his idiot son will probably be begging on streetcorners in a few years.

    Huh???:dunno:

    The ONE Time Margarito Made REED Think Twice about his Criticisms was After the Cotto Fight...

    Other than That, he's CONSISTENTLY Put Logs on the Proverbial "Fire"....

    Yeah but you've never had people on your side bro and you came across as a "hater" (gay word, BTW). It's only now that you can really feel like you were right all along...even though it took 6-7 years of "haterade" (I thought I might as well keep that going)

    Shane's biggest win to date. He can retire right now and go straight to the HOF. Impressive career, coming up from welterweight to beat the best WW. Then years later, after disappointing loses, destroying the top WW, when we all tagged him "shot". Resembling Nelson's win over Ruelas.

    Shanes biggest win HAS to be the first De La Hoya fight. Sure he was a bigger underdog here, but the scalp of Oscar is just much more important.

    Agreed, but Margarito must rank higher than beating Oscar 2.

    Sure, REED Came Across as a Margarito "Hater", but Nonetheless, there was 15-20 Fightbeat Posters that ALWAYS agREED w/REEDs Thoughts on him...Namely, Mex Wedding Shirt & Xplosive (who's 1 of THE Most OBJECTIVE posters on Fightbeat)...

    When REED 1st Started this Thread, he Listed Names N his Sig & it was 15-20 Deeeeeeeeeeeeeep...So NO, this ISN'T Some Crusade that Took 6-7 Years to Pan Out...If Anything, it Took 6-7 Years for Margarito to Make the NON Believers Think Twice...
