Down For the Count: Sugar Shane Mosley Knocks Antonio Margarito Out


Hang another championship belt on the wall for the brothers because Sugar Shane Mosley dismantled Margarito last night:

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.

We sure hope none of y’all bet against the brotha. When you back a black man against the wall (or ropes) you’re liable to get that ass kicked. Of course we know that, but we thought we’d share that valuable info with our extremely “light skinned-ed” friends.
