If he's hasn't already! Shane repeatedly mentions Hopkins as a reason for continuing, ignoring the fact that B-Hop is a freak of nature who rarely absorbs punishment. Mosley has always been findable and has had several tough fights with Oscar, Wright, Vargas, Cotto and Forrest. He looked worn against Floyd and lacked reflexes. I expect Mora to decision him in September and he still won't get the message. I hope he does!
Nah... Mosley is too proud to stay in the game too long. If he loses to a guy like Mora, who isn't bad IMO... just not great, he will hang em up. He is a guy that is in great shape and honestly feels like he had a problem in the PBF fight that stopped him from performing. I don't think losing to Mayweather by decision is that bad either. Lets see what he has left... boxing is all he knows and he still has the passion and desire to do it.
He can always rationalize a loss to Mora with the fact that Mora holds a win over Forrest. :conf Before the split with Jin, the two of them used to say "three to four more big fights and that's it". Mora will be his third since the separation. So...one more?
He says he needs the money.If your ex-wife had taken everything that belongs to you wouldnt you fight until you couldnt?This just proves that the claims that Benard Hopkins and Mosley are not really partners in Golden Boy.They are just fronting and probably dont get paid much.
It was an amicable divorce, and did not financially cripple Shane. :roll: Fact check before blurting out **** like that.
Losing a decision to Floyd isn't bad bad but losing 34 of 36 minutes is. He was never in the fight after the second round. I was at the fight and couldn't believe what was happening. He had opportunities to throw and couldn't. Bad signs bro! I think Mora will outpoint him as this is a horrendous style match up.
Shane himself said he needs the money,do you know something else that Shane doesnt know?Can you prove it was amicable?Do you know what amicable means in terms of divorce?
i dont see him beating mora. but that is because of styles, he should fight spinks or berto imo or rematch cotto!!
He's cashing out while he can. I dont think he's doing anything bad.. I think he should set up a 2-3 fight plan and then get into promoting fights with ODLH.
Post a link to where he said he needs the money. I could dig up a link to where both he and Jin referred to the divorce as an amicable split, that didn't even need to go to litigation, but honestly the burden of proof is on YOU since you're the one that started spouting BS in the first place.
Well, that's something i've always anticipated Mosley to do, to be honest. He's one of the most competitive people in the history of human evolution. I've been hearing him talk about possibly fighting into his 40's and the 'fire in his belly' still being there for a few years now. And that's not good news to me, because like the ts said, he's no Hopkins. He's taken some serious punishment already and he's not going to alter his style. He's not gonna become a defensive master who's gonna go in there with a mindset of just neutralizing and outmaneuvring a guy. He's always gonna be that guy who wants to fukkin' get at you in there. It might be good for him if he loses to Mora and is forced to take a good long look at himself.
