Mosley/Margarito Back On
By Uncategorized November 26th, 2008It looks like maybe the rumored Berto/Mosley fight was hatched merely as a negotiating ploy, because Dan Rafael reports that Margarito/Mosley is back on.
“It’s back together. Everybody got satisfied. Everybody was sensible,” Top Rank’s Bob Arum, Margarito’s promoter, told ESPN.com’s Rafael. “We adjusted the purses as far as HBO putting more money in and it got solved.”
The bout will take place Jan. 24 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
Berto and Mosley both told TSS that a deal was virtually done, but virtually ain’t certainly…

It really a shame that ghanaians or africans boxers in general are not respected. To make matter short, IBF welterweight champion, Joshua Hitter Clottey was to fight Margarito in Jan. 24 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. What happens was that , because he demanded more money, they took the fight from him and gave it to Shane Mosley. To my surprisingly, Margarito also demanded more money to fight Shane Mosley. The question is Mosley and Margarito who bring money to the table? They intentionally gave the fight to Mosley and Andrea Berto to make Joshual look bad. Now they offered Margarito more money to fight Mosley. Is he also not selling himself as they used the same words for Joshual? Or Margarito and Mosley who brings money to the table
