Quickie preview…

Because a crazy day in HS basketball yesterday, this will be brief. Also, Thomas Gerbasi of maxboxing wrote a splendid piece with my sentiments on Shane Mosley.
Once again, the maxboxing guys have stolen my thunder 
Anyway, we’re all hoping for an epic showdown tonight between Mosley and Antonio Margarito.
I’m just not seeing it. Margarito either wins via late TKO or wide unanimous decision. I’m hoping Mosley has one last miracle left in him, but it’s not against Margarito.
Mosley was rumored to have been fighting Andre Berto. Now that I could have seen him winning.
But Margarito is a MANster, half man, half monster. He’s in impeccable shape. I figured he might have issues getting to 147, no sir. He was in at 145.8 while it Mosley who needed a second opportunity to hit the mark.
I’m taping it and when I get home from HS basketball, will be thrilled to watch it. But I’m going to try to not get my hopes up about it.
Also, you didn’t hear anything from me on Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton being off because the cynic in me said there was no way this fight was off.
And sure enough, terms were agreed to Friday for the May 2 showdown.
Sunday is another night of WEC on VS. Main event should be fun with Urijah Faber, coming back from a stunning KO loss, against Jens Pulver.
So be back tomorrow with Margarito-Mosley thoughts and Monday for WEC observations.
