We can reveal Mosley checked out of his hotel last night with his entire team and moved to a second hotel closer to Sydney airport. There are reports his team used the move as a last-minute bluff in an attempt to extract cash from promoter Vlad Warton. Instead, they arrived at Sydney airport early this morning with the future Hall of Famer checking six bags and are expected to depart for Los Angeles later this morning. In another twist this morning, it appears the fight could be rescheduled for six weeks’ time with a new promoter, possibly Khoder Nasser. Mosley’s sparring partner Sergio Mora sent two angry tweets this morning, reading “FIGHT IS OFF!” and “Dirty, dirty fighters in this business.”

@Jae PLEASE hit up Sergio Mora and ask him for an exclusive interview, he has the inside info.........I'm very interested in what he meant by dirty "FIGHTERS" and not promoters

dammit....what happened? thats the thing thats crazy. you dont know if it was accumulation and then one shot too many? he got hit with some great body shots that appeared to do the major damage...but took a couple behind the head...even though they didnt look serious.

prayers go out to this young warrior

It was those illegal ass rabbit punches.


It should NEVER be allowed to punch someone in the back of the head......that's what did it. Leal didnt even go down until he got hit with those 2 punches.


The 1st one got him off-balance and the 2nd punch put him down


I hope he recovers from this

Anybody betting on the upset?

Can someone donate a neck brace to Mexico

Anybody betting on the upset?

not really, but given the styles...there is a lot of clear and present danger for both fighters.

Of the 3 you mentioned I would go with Adonis Stephenson just because he came out of nowhere to become a shockngly dominant force at light-heavy with a total destruction of Chad Dawson and total owning of Tavoris Cloud. And he is on track to have 4 fights in the same year.
Floyd could get it every year but him beating Guerrero and Canelo wasn't a shock and neither fight was all that much fun to watch.
And Bradly is legit 1-1 for the year because he was given a gift in that Provodikov fight.

cosigns and to add in regards to adonis...he went after his boogeyman risking his title shot so he could avenge his only loss which he did brutally..you have to respect that....and and frankie leal...boxing is a brutal sport brehs..hope he recovers fully

I go with Stevenson too. It should pretty much be academic....but a win over Bellew would solidify it. Think back to the year when Glen Johnson was FOY. he beat Woods for the title, defended against Roy and scored a brutal KO, then capped it off by close decision fight with Tarver. Stevenson would look a tad more impressive because so far, no one has given him a challenge whatsoever in 2013.
