Can anyone advise me if the fight is been shown on UK TV, I know there's better fights on that night but this one Intrigue's me.

I also payed ppv to watch Holyfield v Botha , and Hopkins v Eastman so I'm a glutton for punishment.
Cheers

Both guys are about as equally shot as each other,i havent seen Mosley fight since Alvarez and Mayorga since Cotto but both guys were looking jaded then,thankfully that will level the playing field a bit but at their age i suspect both guys have declined massively since they retired

It would be good if both guys could have 1 last hurrah then retire for good but i think it will be a bit of a snoozer where neither guy can pull the trigger anymore

That was a fun fight and Mosley showed that there's life in the old dog yet,well at least at some level,he's finished at elite level of course but if he was to fight IBF champ Bundrage at LMW then i'd give him half a chance,he looked sharp and accurate albeit against a fellow oldie in Mayorga who by the way is still as crazy as ever

Superb liver shot from Shane to finish things,i thought it might have been low and we'd be bogged down with more controversy and god forbid a 3rd fight but that left downstairs was quality

It'll be repeated but it is sad to see the erosion of Mosley's skills and Mayorga just doesn't have a lot left at all, plenty of bottle and he plays the pantomime villain well.

Mayorga clearly hadn't trained much and seeing his wife crying her eyes out at ring side was a sad sight.

The whole main event was just sad to see IMO. Mosley still looks as if he has a dig and a bit of speed but struggles to throw more than three at a time now. He had Mayorga going a few times and just didn't have it in him to finish the job like he used to. It's clear he's going to keep trying for a big fight but someone close to him has to have a word because he will end up getting hurt otherwise. Even against Mayweather he ran out of steam after three rounds and that was five years ago now. Mayorga is still as mental as ever...

A bit patronising that Mosley comment!

I was actually quite impressed with Mosley,he's clearly nowhere near the level he used to be but i was pleasantly surprised

Although TBF he's had his arse handed him to him in about his last 5 or so fights so maybe just him winning rounds was enough to impress me

Watched it myself but made uncomfortable viewing to be honest. Never missed a fight on BN & although I wasnt massively wanting to watch this is did.
When the fights get tougher for Moseley then that isnt going to be pretty!

It was a sad, sad sight watching two shot to hell 40 something's fighting it out. I agreed 100% with Barry Jones somebody needs to have a word with Shane quickly otherwise he will go in with a legit fighter and get beaten badly

I think Mosley looked good.
He could beat a few in the top 10. I'd pick him to beat Bundrage and Liam smith if he became world champion.

What part and in what way? He is a shell of his former self and is tiring after two/three rounds, he never made the weight. I never meant it to sound patronising in the slightest and I don't see how it does tbh. He will end up taking a proper pasting if he gets his wish and manages to get a rematch with the likes of Cotto, Alvarez, PAC. He's one of my all time favourite fighters and I find it quite sad he hasn't called it a day is all.

Let's face it with the likes of Jones, Toney, Tarver and a few others still going It looks like Mosely is going the same way.

Although not as bad as a few of those guys he's tarnishing his legacy in the same way. Shame.
