    There really isn't any fights out there for him.

    He refuses to fight Cotto on the East Coast - so that's out.

    Williams in fighting Wright at 160lbs - so that's out.

    Forrest - as everyone is saying - is in the process of signing to fight Abraham on SHO at 160lbs. - so he's out

    Shane doesn't feel that Berto's name is big enough yet - he'll probably fall as the last option - if there's nothing else.

    Shane would love the winner of Hatton/Pacquiao - but I doubt if he gets either. Mayweather seems like he'll come out of retirement to fight either of these 2. He might even take the JMM fight as his first back - then go for the winner. If this is the case - Mosley would be left out of this picture too.

    Angulo/Kirkland and the rest of the up-and-comers don't bring anything to the table. Berto would be a better choice anyway - if you have to go this route.

    Shane finds himself in a very hard spot. He would love to fight by the Summer - Berto is the only option for him if he does want to fight this Summer. Then hopefully - the winner of Cotto/Clottey will want to Unify and we'll finally get a Welterweight Unification Fight. This is pretty much the only option out there. Too bad for Shane.

    FYI.... De la Hoya said he wouldn't mind fighting Shane again - yeah - picture that.

    tell him to look up, not down. fighting hatton or pac wont improve his legacy. lose-lose regardless.

    Pacman/Hatton winner would make him wait until the result of Cotto's fight. Pacman is most likely going to fight Cotto if they both win anyways.

    He needs to stay busy and he should shoot for a mandatory or Berto.

    Angulo/Kirkland aren't worth the risk. Angulo would get beat down but Kirkland would be tough. A Forrest fight isn't worth it right now he has too much to lose.

    Any of the other title holders.

    Don't say Berto ain't ready. He is a belt holder for christ sake!

    Let him prove he deserve that belt. :deal

    I dont blame him for not fighting in in NY, shane could have won the first fight...Im personally starting to think badly of Cotto and his need to fight all his big fights in NY. He cried about having to fight Margo in Vegas.

    There are always options, and here they go:
    1. Andre Berto - He has a WBC belt, extremly impressive skills but has show flaws that Mosley would easily take advantage of. Gets a belt and beats a hot young prospect. Downside, not that much money in it.

    2. Winner of Pac-Hatton - Stupid idea for pac or hatton who would get KTFO. But if one of them is brave enough Mosley will get a huge paycheck but not much cred with true boxing fans.

    3. Paul Williams - Only if he beats Winky, probably have to be at 154, also would be for a title. Depending on how PW beat Winky could also be a lucrative fight for both.
