That fight was widely viewed as the big-stage debut for Margarito, now 30 years of age.<\/p>\n<p>Along with proving that he belongs among boxing\u2019s elite, Margarito solidified his status as a headliner and now gets ready for his first title defense against a legend in the sport.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Margarito is listed at -400 odds<\/span><\/strong> for this fight and along with picking the winner we\u2019ve got Final Result and Pick the Round props here at Sportsbook.com.<\/p>\n<p>Place a bet on the \u2018Pick the Round\u2019 prop and if either fighter wins by KO or TKO in the 1st or 2nd Round, all losing wagers on the prop will be refunded, up to $100.00 thanks to our Quick Knockout \u2013 Big Payout promotion.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" title=\"Sportsbook.com\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_2744b_560\" alt=\" Fight Odds \/ Preview\" width=\"260\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For Mosley, just getting another Main Event pay-per-view fight should be regarded as an accomplishment.<\/p>\n<p>From 2002 to 2004, Mosley won just one of his six fights with a No Contests declared in a 2003 bout against Raul Marquez. His only victory, a 12-round unanimous decision over Oscar De La Hoyas, was sandwiched between back-to-back losses to Vernon Forrest and Ronald \u2018Winky\u2019 Wright.<\/p>\n<p>Since the last fight against Wright, Mosley has won six matches, losing to Cotto by unanimous decision in November of 2007. In his last fight, Mosley dropped the hard-hitting Ricardo Mayorga with a 12th Round knockout.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday though, Mosley will be in tough against an opponent that has an iron chin and will bring plenty of punches with him to the ring. Margarito is no stranger to throwing punches and can average 100 per round without wearing down.<\/p>\n<p>If the Tornado can continue to throw blows into the late rounds again on Saturday, he should be the better man but as a big favorite, bettors will likely still side with the long shot.<\/p>\n<p>Fight fans looking for more action on Saturday night should also check out the odds for Affliction MMA\u2019s second pay-per-view event.<\/p>\n<p>Headlined by Andrei Arlovski and champion Fedor Emelianenko, the \u2018Day of Reckoning\u2019 event boasts a fight card full of big names and we\u2019ve got all the odds on our <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Live Odds page<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Bet on the Saturday Night Fights | BET BOXING &#8211; AT THE WORLD\u2019S BIGGEST SPORTSBOOK &#8211; CLICK HERE!<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The aging \u2018Sugar\u2019 Shane Mosley takes to the ring for Saturday night\u2019s fight against WBA Welterweight Champion, the \u2018Tijuana Tornado\u2019 Antonio Margarito&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1436,25],"tags":[9198,2930,2713,3136,3128,4419,4418,1931,2934,4415,5053,632,9200,9201,9202,9195,9196,9197,911,6085,1028,9199,1178,66508,6086,3379,3378,9203],"class_list":["post-7583","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fight-club","category-sportsbooks","tag-antonio-margarito","tag-bet-on-fights","tag-boxing","tag-boxing-lines","tag-boxing-odds","tag-boxing-picks","tag-boxing-predictions","tag-fight-picks","tag-fight-predictions","tag-hbo-fights","tag-hbo-pay-per-view","tag-lines","tag-margarito-odds","tag-mosley-odds","tag-mosley-vs-margarito","tag-mosley-vs-margarito-betting-preview","tag-mosley-vs-margarito-lines","tag-mosley-vs-margarito-odds","tag-odds","tag-overunder-rounds","tag-predictions","tag-shane-mosley","tag-sportsbookcom","tag-sportsbooks","tag-vegas-boxing-fights","tag-vegas-boxing-lines","tag-vegas-boxing-odds","tag-wba-welterweight-champion-fight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7583","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7583"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7583\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":106801,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7583\/revisions\/106801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7583"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7583"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7583"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
