Antonio Margarito vs Shane Mosley Results
Besieged by outside-the-ring problems, "Sugar" Shane Mosley never let them bother him, at least publicly.
Instead, he carried himself with a quiet confidence throughout the buildup to his fight with Antonio Margarito.
And when they finally got into the ring Saturday at the Staples Center, with a record crowd of 20,820 going crazy -- and mostly cheering for Margarito -- it seemed as though Mosley let whatever frustration that may have built up inside of him out on Margarito.
It was a thrashing.
A destruction.
There was a knockdown in the eighth round.
And a knockout 43 seconds into the ninth round, a round in which the Sugarman closed the show by outlanding Margarito a staggering 21-0.
The victory, in which Mosley, from nearby Pomona, regained the welterweight championship, was validation that he's still great, even at 37.
Mosley, an underdog perhaps in part because he had suffered a close decision loss to Cotto in November 2007, was way faster than Margarito. And he seemed to also land much heavier blows as he pressured Margarito, who is normally the pressure fighter, throughout the fight.
Clearly ahead during what was an entertaining fight, Mosley did serious damage in the eighth round.
Mosley was landing huge shots when he finally knocked the usually iron-chinned Margarito down, sending him into the ropes with left hands and down on the end of hard right hands.
Margarito (37-6, 27 KOs) went down face-first and was smiling when he rose.
He knew he had been nailed and was in deep trouble.
In the ninth, he had nothing left. Mosley was teeing off on him in his corner, and as Margarito fell again, referee Raul Caiz was moving in to stop the fight at the same time Margarito's corner threw in the towel.
Margarito, 30, was out of sorts because he was forced to have his hands rewrapped before the fight after an illegal substance was discovered. Whatever it was, he took his beating like a man.
