Mora and Mosley will fight at 154-pounds. Mora wants to be the first Mexican to defeat Shane Mosley and a victory on Mexican Independence Day weekend would make this victory extra special for Mora. Mosley is fighting to show his loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr. was just an off night and he hasn’t aged over night. Sergio Mora and Shane Mosley both hail from southern California and share a common opponent, the late Vernon Forrest, Mosley lost two fights to Forrest and Mora beat Forrest in their first meeting to win the WBC 154-pound title, but lost the rematch.
The winner of Mosley vs. Mora could be a possible future opponent for superstar Manny Pacquiao if he gets by Antonio Margarito on November 13.

Victor Ortiz vs. Vivian Harris, who both share the nickname “Vicious”, duke it out at junior welterweight.
