Sugar Shane is back in form..
LAS VEGAS (AP) - Shane Mosley landed the crushing left hook, then turned and climbed the ropes in one elegant motion. Behind him, Fernando Vargas crumpled gracelessly to the canvas.

This rematch wasn't much of a match at all, and Sugar Shane was back on top.
Mosley stopped Vargas in the sixth round of their 154-pound rematch Saturday night, flattening Vargas with a walloping left hand for his second victory in the rivalry in five months.
A grotesque swelling that closed Vargas' left eye caused the fighters' first match to be stopped in the 10th round in February. But even with two good eyes, Vargas never saw that hook - and the smaller Mosley hit him with a near-perfect punch.
"It does boost my confidence knowing that I can knock out bigger guys," Mosley said. "My power is increasing from fight to fight. I've noticed more of a snap to my punches. I've noticed that I can knock people out. I've hurt people very well." <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=3 width=255 align=right border=0><TBODY><TR><TD>http://msn.foxsports.com/id/5788730_36_1.jpg</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
Mosley was more aggressive and sharp from the opening bell, patiently landing the right hand that hurt Vargas repeatedly in their first fight. Vargas seemed frustrated and disorganized, never winning a clear-cut round.
