    I was at the fight on Saturday and hopefully he does.

    Great Man! Great Fighter! Great Warrior! Great Champion!

    BUT

    Past it - it's OVER!

    Nah he still can pull off another win to close his career on a positive note. Except it has to be against someone like Berto because God forbid Mosley fight another guy who can outbox him or take a dangerous test but still slightly having a chance to win against Pacquiao.

    I dont think he can fight anyone of the top five fighters; with a win in mind.

    I think Mosley still have potenial, he just fought a better fighter then himself. When he fought Cotto that fight could of went either way, Cotto did not beat him convincingly like Floyd. In my opinion it should of been a draw. With that being say I could see them having a rematch.

    I doubt SSM will retire. He'll go after Berto or it could be the other way around.

    Nope, I don't think he should retire. Shane's still dangerous. He's still got enough quickness and speed to compete with the best.

    Mayweather is just in a different league. Very few fighters belong in the same ring as Floyd. Love him or hate him folks, he's just that damn good.

    No shane can still fight he just lost to way better boxer that night he could still win fights against good opposition at 147, put him in with clottey and berto maybe even judah he can still put on a good show with them but mayweather he can not beat.

    The only potential Shane has at this stage is to decline even further.

    Punch volume has nothing to do with it. Esspecially with a guy like SSM.

    Yes it does when he's clearly gassed by the 4th round and throwing less than one of the least active boxers in the sport.

    He wasn't jabbing and he was winded fast.

    He is done. He's old.

    I still think he has at least one or two fights left in him. Give him a rematch with Cotto and see what happens. If Cotto can beat him again in a convincing fashion then Shane should hang it up.

    he threw more punches in the second 6 rounds than he did in the first 6
