Amazing pick, probably one of the best I have ever seen. You might be the only person on the complete site that though Mosley was good enough to stop Margarito. Hats off to you, sir.
There was always the chance that Mosley was shot but when I looked at Compubox it became how apparent it is that Magarito is easy to hit. Think it was around the 45-50% mark in recent fights.
True he has a cast iron jaw but I dont think he has mixed in real proven top class (apart from Cotto) and like I said Shane throws well timed powerful shots, and he also has a decent record against the Hispanic style. No fighter is invincible and I think the best time to get a fighter is just after a war, just like Tony had with Cotto.
So what did you make of the Mayorga fight? because that had a huge factor on me and many others selecting Margarito to batter Mosley.

Mosley was poor I agree
but the thing that stood out to me was the final punch that Mosley threw. Obviously tired and up against it he pulled out a natural peach of a punch that would of stopped anyone. Also Setanta showed the Vargas knockdowns.
Then when I saw that Margarito gets regularly hit with power shots and also had a war last time out I guessed why not Shane.

Top bombing Derek, yet another disastrous start to the year, stick to the tennis

I'm giving up predicting boxing
I had Margarito down as one the few indestructible boxers in the game. I could barely believe my eyes watching Mosley destroy him. Stunning.
Mosley is back in big buisness again
