Shane Mosley is going to end up like Holyfield and Roy Jones

physically and mentally he is still in good nick, dont forget in may he lost to the best in the sport, he only way to see what he has left is to wait for the sergi mora mtch and then go from there.

 

Shane may well be the next indeed, and won't be the last also... I remember RJJ saying that would never happen to him!

 

I remember that too. Hopefully Shane retires after facing(and hopefully beating) Mora. The thing he has over Roy & Holyfield is that he has never been stopped.

 

Didn't Bernard Hopkins promise his dying mother he wouldnt fight past 40

 

Nah, he won't become a stepping stone. If he loses next week, he's done.

He's just saying this stuff about fighting for 5 more years because he wants to show that he is committed.

 

If there is one thingwe know from Ol' Popkins is that he's a good actor

 

Well Mosley has a bit of an advantage over those two in that he is physically and mentally the same way he was 5 years ago, which was very good. Jones Jr. and Holyfield are not the same guys they were 5 years ago, and in Holyfield's case really since his fights with Lewis. Until I see real deterioration happen, Mosley can beat plenty of top fighters.

 

But he won't be getting KO'd left and right like Roy.

 

No he won't. Roy and Evander have gone this long because they have nothing to do after boxing and also they need money. Shane has his career in promoting after boxing and has plenty of money to make from it on top of all the money he already has.

 

Every fighter in the sport is an actor once they make it to the top and become business smart. They cater to the casual fans because the hardcore boxing fans will be there through thick and thin.

 

That and EVERY fighter must do whatever they have to do in order to win and try to gain an advantage one way or the other in the ring.

 

yes he will end up like holyfield and jones. He will also be a hall of famer.

 

Shane has a atg chin no doubt about that, he still beats most jmw, has oppurtunity to become mw champ if he looks very impressive next week.

 

I'm afraid to see this happen as well. It sucks to see all my old favorites who were once so great deteriorate so badly. Then these kids comming up just see today's versions of them and talk about how they suck..
