    Didn't say I bought the fatass excuse either, it's just that it's so stupid and ridiculous it isn't even worth discussing.

    As for Forrest don't recall him having an elbow problem. You're probably thinking of his shoulder injury because he had it for several years including both fights with Mosley and just kept getting shots in the shoulder. It eventually got to a point where the shots didn't work anymore and he had to take time off and get surgery.

    Had to be one of the dumbest things a boxer can do with his career that I've ever heard of, not only by him but his management letting it happen as well. I mean it's only your shoulder which connects the arm to the fist, it's not like you should probably take good care of it right?

    Mosley's full of shit with his bullshit excuses. The only reason he has to make excuses is so he can continue to get fights even though it's fairly obvious he's washed up and beyond giving a decent effort. I predict Mora puts on a clinic against him as Mosley is probably even beyond his miracle 1 hitta quitta magic that saved his ass against Mayorga.

    I believe Mosley was ahead on the cards anyway, so had Mayorga survived he would have lost a decision anyway.

    I think he pulled ahead with the knockdowns in the last round, without any knockdowns in the last round he would have lost.

    I´m just curious to see how Mosley, who was exhausted and sloppy by round three against Floyd comes back to whoop Mora. Predicting Mosley fights is like playing the lottery. You´ll never know what you´ll get.

    Sincerely Evane Fosley.

    Mosley's got two big strikes against him:

    1. He's too small; is this fight at 160 or 154? Either way, Mora's the much bigger man
    2. He's old as hell

    What might turn it around for him is if he can use gear, and since there's no Olympic testing, I presume he can and will.

    The last round wasn't scored and Mosley was up 5 points on one card and 1 on another. 107-102 Mosley, 104-105 Mayorga and 105-104 Mosley. Mosley was winning regardless.

    Be patient dude. You'll get to make your Mosley can't sell jokes once the totals are announced. It won't mean much though, if Mosley couldn't sell when he was on top, what's the point of worrying about it now?

    I'm interested to see how many tickets Ortiz and El Canelo have sold. I already know that Shane couldn't give away tickets for free when he's the A side.

    I don't care. Mosley is 40 years old. He is no longer relevant. He is doing his old man world tour ala Roy Jones Jr.(soon to be called SENIOR)

    for some reason I'm hyped to see Saul Alvarez vs Carlos Baldomir on the undercard...I think Baldy will push the young guy hard and it will be action packed.

    Depending on how easily Mora makes the remaining weight I will put money on him to win this.

    Mosley better not look good tonight, otherwise the "he was off the juice" argument during the Floyd fight will only look stronger.

    Wow Ponce battered Escalante for three rounds, and vicious combo to end the fight.

    Escalante looked pretty bad... unfortunate, I was hoping that would be a good fight. Nice finish though, Ponce looked pretty nice in there.

    Harris is shot. He cannot take a punch anymore and should retire. Ortiz still looked tentative, when Harris actually hit back. These fights will do nothing for Ortiz. When somebody better fights back, he´ll get beaten again.

    Oh boy, now Alvarez vs. Baldomir. I´m sure Lampley will soon tell us that Baldomir has disgraced his talents like Harris, when it´s HBO that should be disgraced that they let these shot fighters on their broadcasts. Baldomir should have lost to Luciano Perez three years ago. Now he´s 39 and has had two fights in three years, add four pounds overweight and the writting is on the wall.

    Think Baldomir is stoppable?
