Rumours are circulating that Shane Mosley will take on Ronald Winky Wright in an intriguing Light Middleweight unification fight.

The rumoured undercard is an intriguing heavyweight fight between the undefeated Baby Joe Mesi and former champion Michael Moorer.

Yeah, I have changed it - I didn't think it was signed and sealed.

Mesi-Moorer isn't intriguing, Mesi inside 2 rounds against the shot former champ who will only be taking the fight to bosst the retirement fund.

To be honest there is something about Mosely-Wright that doesn't exactly ignite me either. Mosely didn't impress me against DLH and Wright although very cute doesn't generally set the arena ablaze either.

I can't see Mosley-Wright being much of a bout - I'd expect a Mosley UD, possibly S/D - a boring one with loads of countering.

I am glad Wright is getting this opportunity he is a very good boxer and thoroughly deserves this fight.

Winky is one for the purists but i really enjoy watching his skills and think he may surprise some here.

I give Winky a chance, two years ago, I would have picked him to beat Mosley, but he appears to be getting tagged a lot more than he used to.

However, Mosley sure isn't as fast as he once was, so I think the fight will be closer than people think, I reckon Mosley will nick a close one, but I won't be that surprised if he loses.

Mosley is the money fighter though, so in a close one, I guess the decision goes to him.

I too give Winky a chance.

Mosley would have to have one serious off-night to lose to Wright now. Winky is approaching the end of a long hard career near the top while Mosley looks incredibly strong now at 154.

It's a pretty straight forward defence for Sugar Shane while at the same time becoming the first ever undisputed light-middle champ (feel free to correct me on that stat, didn't bother with any researching).

I personally think that Both of these fights are extremely open.

Double M is "gone", but would love to see Mesi get beaten, Shane should beat Winky, but Winky is slick so who know`s?
