Shane Mosley Jr vs Joshua Conley Prediction: Shane Mosley Jr set for another title statement win

Two middleweights will be trying to steal the show on a big card in Texas that includes Ryan Garcia and Oscar Duarte as the main events. Shane Mosley Jr. and Joshua Conley are set to square off, and this battle will be significant for both combatants because the NABO middleweight title is on the line. It will be a 10-round middleweight fight, and Shane Mosley Jr. is currently holding the title belt. They are both in their early 30s and have had a few losses in their professional careers. This fight could determine whether they advance farther in the middleweight division. Toyota Arena in Houston, Texas, USA, is where the action will unfold, and DAZN will be the network carrying the action. The bout, which serves as the card's main event, is sure to be intensely contested. Mosley last competed in June, winning the vacant WBO NABO Middleweight Title with a seventh-round technical knockout of D'Mitrius Ballard. Conley last fought in December, losing a 10-round unanimous decision to Steven Butler in a fight for the NABF Middleweight Belt.

Shane Mosley Jr. is the son of boxing legend Shane Mosley, and he has inherited his father's fighting abilities. Shane Mosley Jr. has won three straight fights in the 14 months since his loss to Jason Quigley. Mosley Jr. has a 20-4 (11 KO) record going into this match. Five months and twenty-two days have passed since his last fight, a seventh-round technical knockout victory over D'Mitrius Ballard. But before the KO, he was having some difficulties. He was dropping rounds and was unable to stop Ballard from body-switching him. Mosley isn't known as a powerful hitter, but 55% of his victories have been by knockout, and he has gone the distance in three of his previous four fights and five of his last seven. Mosley Jr. has four losses on his record. In his third professional fight, Mosley lost to Marchristopher Adkins by a four-round split decision. In 2017, he lost to David Toussaint by an eight-round split decision. In 2018, he lost to Brandon Adams by a 10-round unanimous decision, and in 2021, he lost to Jason Quigley by a 10-round majority decision for the vacant WBO NABO middleweight title. Regarding professional titles, in February 2021, Mosley successfully defended the vacant WBO NABO Super Middleweight Title by stopping Cristian Olivas in five rounds. The most challenging exams he has taken so far are Adams, Ballard, Quigley, and Gabriel Rosado. 

Joshua Conley has won 14 times, lost four times, and tied once as a professional. He isn't the favorite going into this fight, but he could pull off an upset. Although Conley has beaten Cesar Vila, Juan Manuel Mares, and Antonio Urista, only 10 of his 23 opponents have a winning record, and five of them have beaten him. Conley's only draw on record is a six-round fight with Juan Carlos Sanchez in 2013. With the exception of his victory over Curtis Stevens, Conley has struggled when facing opponents from higher weight classes, losing to Adames, Williams, and Derevyanchenko, all of whom are excellent boxers. Furthermore, Conley hasn't been as busy as Mosley Jr. in the past five years, and losing two straight fights doesn't help anyone when going up against someone who just had a big win in their last fight.

Shane Mosley Jr. is the favorite going into this fight, but Joshua Conley could pull off a surprise. Using his devastating blows to his advantage, Mosley Jr. will be a danger to his opponent. Conley, on the other hand, will try to get around Mosley Jr. and land some quick punches by using his speed and quickness. Recently, Mosley has been very good, and he is facing an opponent who has lost his last two fights. Mosley should not underestimate Conley, though, because he is strong enough to make things tough for Mosley. But Mosley has the skills and strength to win if he is willing to put in the work. The fight is likely to be very close, and it could go either way. I think the fight will go the full distance, and Shane Mosley Jr. will win by majority decision based on their past records and the way they fight.
