Tony Jefferies just put this on his FB: I have a cheeky feeling, Mosley vs Kahn could be on the cards! ;-). Tony met Mosley today.
Thing is, I don't see any of them as realistic options. With Khan, they're going to want to put him in with a name. In all honestly, I'd still want to see Mosley over them guys (Still got that feeling about the fight). I can see guys like Guerrero, Mosley, Mayorga for Khan. I don't think it's a permanent move. Just a fight that he'd go up for.
I think Mosley would be very dangerous for Khan tbh .He's got huge power man .He hurt Mayweather early so could catch Khan .He's still got rapid handspeed .
Splenda Shane is done, and especially can't handle persistent movement. There comes a point where fighting a ''name'' doesn't really mean anything anymore, I think Mosley's at that stage now. I'm a fan of Sergio Mora(yeah, I said it) and I think he's an underrated fighter, but even so, being extremely fortunate to get a draw against him says it all, and he's gone on to get soundly beaten after that. I don't see what he'd offer.
good post, annoying matchup really as shane is well past it so i hate to think khan and his team will make out its a huge win.
Absolutely **** fight IMO Mosley is 40 ffs! I'd like to see him go for a competitive fight with Victir Ortiz, he's well known, pretty well respected and it's a fight that would test Khan. Fighting Mosley at this point is like wheeling in Ali and "fighting" him, impressive sounding name, but it's like beating up a punchbag at this point-Id rather see him fight someone that hits back. He should stay at 140 or if he wants a 147 fight to test the water, try Ortiz or if it's in the UK , maybe Kell Brook
:deal It's a crap fight and if made i wouldn't stay up for it, tbh i half fell asleep before and during Pac fight. Normally never do that when it comes to Shane's fights.
True, doesn't make this fight any less of a farce though. It would be like putting a 40 year old Duran in with De La Hoya or someone, its an absolute joke.
Mosley anywhere near his best would execute Khan, it wouldn't be funny. Hell, even now..... only needs to land one shot.
I don't like the idea of it being portrayed as a big fight. Khan vs a host of fringe contenders would probably be more competitive but get nowhere near the hype. I'll be a bit peeved if this fight comes off, to be frank.
