    I think this looks a lot like the Whitaker-McGirt fight in the sense that a solid fighter is made to look ordinary by the skills of Whitaker. As good as Shane is, Whitaker was just to slick for him even at 147.

    I like Pea by relatively easy UD.

    Agreed. Mosley's aggression makes him a less difficult prospect for Whitaker than De La Hoya, for instance, & even an old Whitaker only dropped a decision to a peaking De La Hoya by a mere point on my card. The version who belittled Chavez would've won 8-4 over Mosley, & repeated the dosage two divisions south at 135, where, IMO, both of these men were at their imposing best.

    Whitaker by decision. Too elusive and slick for the disguised slugger.
