WHO ELSE THINKS MOSLEY OVER ALVAREZ?

Mosley is too old. He's been showing it and it's nothing recent. It's been like this for years.
Canelo is on his way up. Too strong and I believe there is a very good chance he becomes the first to get the stoppage.
Cotto needs to be a bully. If he can't make Floyd hesitate and feel like he's being pushed around, Floyd is going to get a late stoppage. Just because down the stretch he will probably tag him at will.

True. Cotto has the heart to go 12 with Money but he will slow down and Money just goes harder in the later rounds. No chance for Cotto imo. Now I know Mosley ain't looked too great but he is a vet with hand speed which Canelo lacks. Not to mention Alavarez had a few tough fights with sub par fighters. Nothing special to me. Similar to Chavez Jr nice record but who have you fought?
normally I would never count out mosley but the reality is he hasn't won a fight since January of 2009. that's a long time. add to that how pitiful he looked against pac I just don't see it.
but if he has any chance he needs to start very fast. canelo has been hurt by lesser opponent before and mosley still has power so he'll need to try and get him out early, imo.

All losses by the best in the business. I mean if B Hop can look decent against Dawson @ damn near 50, Mosley can pull this shit off @ 40. No use in putting up twice the money for half the loot ya know? I always dug Mosley. Got a gut feeling he might put hands on em. Could be wishful thinking. Mosley @ his best is a problem. Could just be a payday for him. Thats boxing for you.
u could be right so good luck. but I don't think mosley is a bhop. when hopkins was 41 he was schooling Tarver and even in his losses to jermaine Taylor they were controversial decisions and he certainly didn't look old. mosley looked old for awhile now, not just in his fights he literary looks like an old man.
we all gotta realize too.. Canelo is only like 21. someone mentioned earlier he was getting tagged by lesser opponents. good point but at the time he was like 18/19/20 and in there with some veterans... hes getting better every fight and i think hes going to have a stand out performance against Mosley...
I wanted the old man to have a nice win to seal his legacy, But that boy was too much for him. I take my hat off to Alvarez. He proved he is a factor. And Money had his hands full with Cotto. Had that boy leaking. Everybody was clowning Pac after the Marquez fight. Now they'll be clowning money after the Cotto. Fighting styles make fights.
