    Mosley has ALWAYS looked like shi.t @ 154. He was always slow, flat footed and had no explosiveness at 54, go back and watch the WRIGHT fights or even Vargas when he won. He and Mayorga was just about EVEN before the knockout. The quick combination throwing Mosley hasn't been seen since he fought at 135.

    Mosley needs to change up his style of fighting, throwing the jab more and head movement, and give it 1 more shot.

    **** no. Seriously, he should hang up his gloves. He's given us great fights and had a great career. Don't be a Jones Jr/Holyfield.

    I wouldn't mind seeing him fight Paulie Malignaggi. He definitly shouldn't fight anyone else, though.

    shane should retire. he really looks past it against canelo. no speed, no adjustments, reflexes were shite. his last best form was against floyd and looked shot in all his fights afterwards.

    Mosley has NEVER had adjustments, Mosley's 2 weaknesses is he's 1 dimensional and has no jab. Mosley trys to fight guys at 154 the same way he fought guys at 135, throwing 1 power punch at a time. You can't fight Jesse James Leija the same way you fight Winky Wright.

    He also has never had a jab, which it didn't matter at 135 because he punched harder then everybody and when he hit guys at 35 it hurt.

    Mosley should hang'em up. He was never a smart fighter so now he is phyiscial decline and can't keep up with young champs so what else can he do but a stepping stone?

    This happened before Haye, foot blisters do effect your ability to move.

    mosley's shot and should retire before becoming a stepping stone with a big name, like so many other great fighters who refused to hang'em up when their body screamed that they do so.

    Mosley fought Pac before Haye vs Wlad. Mosley also mentioned that he got hit so hard that he forgot 3 rounds. To be honest Pac had just a many excuses as to why he didn't KO Mosley as Mosley did in regards to his poor performance.

    Mosley cant even pull the trigger anymore. Did you see his "punches". He is done and it would be foolish for him to take another beating.
