Shane Mosley knocked out Ricardo Mayorga with one second remaining in the 12th and final round Saturday night, showing that he still has some power left at age 37.

Even if Mayorga had lasted another second, Mosley would have won by decision, as two of the three judges had Mosley ahead going into the 12th round, and the third had Mayorga ahead by just one point.

Immediately after the fight, speculation began to turn to the possibility that Mosley could fight Antonio Margarito next. Margarito, generally recognized as the best welterweight in the world, was sitting at ringside.

But Mosley said he wasn't sure if Margarito was available.

"I have to try and find fights now," Mosley said afterward. "I don't want to wait around for Cotto and Margarito. I know they have plans. I know Margarito is here watching. It was interesting."

A Mosley-Margarito fight would be very interesting. It's a fight that should happen.
