Antonio Margarito Drops Moseley Bout

It has been reported that the bout between "Sugar" Shane Moseley will not be facing Antonio Margarito in January. There have been reports of Margarito missing when they almost had a done deal with the bout, but Margarito's manager stated that they will not be facing Moseley, because they think that Moseley will beat him, and then Tony lost his rematch date with Miguel Cotto.

If people have been waiting for this bout, and are ticked off at Margarito, then don't be. I personally do not think that Moseley deserves a match with Margarito. Tony says that he did what Oscar De la Hoya did. De la Hoya said that he will face the winner of the Margarito/Cotto match, and when Margarito won, Oscar didn't take the match up. Instead, he faces a puny, light-weight champion, Manny Paquaio. Also, Moseley ducked a match with Margarito a couple of years ago. Margarito wanted to face the best and e turned it down. Now that Margarito is the best, Moseley wants to come in the picture and fight him. Do you think that is fair? I don't think so. So Moseley deserves what he got. It's not the end of the world that he hasn't faced Margarito. Moseley is talking about that Margarito lost his title as the most feared boxer in the division. I don't think so. It just shows how much of a glory hog Moseley is.

Any who, Tony stated that he will be fighting in his hometown before he has his rematch with Miguel Cotto. We do not know who the opponent might be. Top rank will hopefully find an opponent before the end of this month. Once Margarito gets passed his opponent, he'll be ready for his rematch against Miguel Cotto.
