    November is over soon and it's a good thing. Boxing has lost so many people.

    Seriously, wtf? Things like this seem to happen all at once (Forrest, Gatti, Arguello, Valero were all within a few weeks)

    My only memory of him was prime Mosley giving him a brutal beating.

    Damn shame. I added him on FB a while back. Always seemed like a good guy and used to post up nice highlight videos of past fighters from time to time and would give updates on his training and such. Rest in peace, Shannan.

    I remember Shannan hitting him with maybe 2-3 solid shots in the 5 rounds they fought. Mosley was impressed with his toughness. RIP.
