And that would be a good thing.

Awful performance by Shane anyway, Forrest will beat him again, Margarito would walk right through him.

i agree man, i hope he retires.

Gotta be the first time i've felt any compassion for Mayorga. No one gave him a chance in this fight yet it was easy the majority of the way through it.

Mosley picked that left hook superberbly well though. Textbook punch that left nothing to chance.

No he wasn't, he was ahead on the cards.

Was Mosley really ahead on the scorecards?

Stopping the fight was the right decision, he was finished.

Out of interest can a fighter be saved by bell in LA?

Scorecards were 105-104 Mayorga (Pat Russell), 105-104 Mosley (Nelson Vasquez) and 107-102 Mosley (Tony Crebs).

Stoppage was fair, but I'm really sick and tired of GBP fighters getting gift decisions. Tony Crebs should be made to watch Skelton v Sprott 2 as punishment.

McEwan looks talented. Excellent right jab. Don't like his "Wittering" though - all that switching that he likes to do, and all that pulling back from shots with chin unprotected.

As seen with the similar (and very able) Andy Lee, an excellent amateur does not make a great pro all the time. Some faults that maybe need ironing out, to forestall any potential disasters, but a promising fighter. Good to see a Brit learning his craft vs hard headed (albeit significantly smaller) Mexicans.

When? ALOT of close decisions have gone aganst GBP fighters. Mayweather vs Oscar, Calzaghe vs Hopkins.

Barrera vs Marquez/Pacquiao II I thought could have been closer on the cards, as maybe Mosley vs Cotto.

I do feel sympathy for Mayorga, but I think he would have gone ballistic had it gone to the cards.... rematch? Or Mayorga vs Forrest 3? Be a shame for him to be done on possibly his best career performance - judging it as a 12 round contest.

If Mayorga had rose from that second heavy knock-down then it would've been 113-113 on my card - it was stupid how two judges had Mosley ahead after the 11th. And that 5-point gap by one judge was horrific. I hope something bad happens to him.

He looked great when he was boxing from the outside and creating good angles with his footwork. His defence is obviously lacking and he doesn't look like much of a finisher. One to keep an eye on but not (yet) one to watch.

It was a Fight of Wills, I really enjoyed thought it was close.

HBO had Mosely a clear winner, by about 8 rounds to 4.

.

Delahoya-Mayweather wasn't close Delahoya still got a card, how you can have Delahoya winning when getting outlanded 2-1 is beyond me.
I don't think they want to ruin the name of boxing by giving a blatant robbery in a huge fight, but they definately have some corrupt judges:

Forbes-D-Hopkins was a bad robbery

Marquez-Barrera - paid off judges for the Golden boy fighter with the future, whether you had Marquez winning or not is irrelevant it was a close fight and the cards were wrongly WIDE to Marquez

Many people thought Cassamayor got a gift under Golden Boy (I personally didnt but am a fan)

I had Santa Cruz by 1 in that fight, but how GBP dealt with the mandated rematch made me fairly angry.

Apparently most of the AP had Mosley ahead, so clearly I'm on me Todd here! I had Mayorga ahead by 2 going into the 12th.

I had Santa Cruz by two - but even thought it was close on the cards I though the Santa Man clearly won.
