    According to fight news and other on-line sources Shane Mosley has retired and a good move too because he is certainly shot.

    Probably casts even more doubt on his performance against Mundine. Nice collect on the way out for 6 rounds 'work".

    ...while the getting is "okay".

    Nobody was going to ever take him seriously again following that and he would just risk irreparable harm to his legacy by continuing on. (of course, we said that about Jones after Green...)

    yeah that was a terrible effort. rewatched kirkland v tapia the other day, doubt mundine could stand up to the punchers at 154

    Do you think Mosely has lost credibility with the way ,well put it this way because Mundine beat him,loses credibility in my book,

    He's just plain shot mate. That what happens in the cruellest sport of all when you get old and reach your use-by date.

    If Mosley hurt Mundine with a right hand Kirkland could potenially kill Mundine if they fought.

    Mundine beat Mosley's ass so bad he took away his will to ever fight again
    If Kirkland was KO'd by Ishida Imagine what Choc would do to him

    Would Choc jump on Kirkland like Ishida did? In saying that though Ishaida was ahrdly a fearsome puncher so your argument holds some merit.

    god u talk some crap.

    u just cannot make an objective comment about anything. its either pure trolling, or complete bias without any thought at all.

    truly pathetic.

    Mosley is old and finished and admits it :

    "I think that, you know, I started getting injuries in the ring and injuries of being a little bit older and not really being able to do what I want to do. I see a lot of different things in there that I want to do, but just can't do...being older and getting hit with shots is not a good thing...now I want to train fighters," stated future Hall of Famer "Sugar" Shane Mosley, who talked about his decision to retire to now focus on becoming a full-time trainer.

    Good don't want to see him become like Roy and continue on way after your used by date and getting beaten regularly by people who were not fit to carry your spit bucket in your prime.
    Good luck Shane.:good
