    Mosely said after he beats Canelo he would like a rematch with Cotto and Mayweather.

    He stated he wasn't 100% against Pacquaio.

    He doesn't mention he would like a rematch with Pacquiao....does Mosely's reason for losing sound credible or is it just another lame excuse?

    I think Mosely will pull it off against Canelo because of his experience, however it would be the same outcome against Mayweather, Cotto and Pacquaio!!!

    He was terrified after getting dropped and wanted to quit, it was sad to see a former warrior like that, he needs to retire and enjoy life.
    I hope he does well vs canelo.

    bull**** excuse, if the Achilles heel is done, you are out of profighting for 6-12 months, no way you can actually fight with such a severe injury

    **** is too funny. No way was he injured like that. That excuse is just a ******ed as Manny's excuses after his fight with JMM.

    You're right....it takes time to heal!!!
    Sad to see Shane take this road...it was very visible that he was shaken from Manny's first solid shot!!!

    To be fair to Shane he has said this a long time ago.

    I personally dont think he would have done any better, but thats me.

    Also the reason I guess he doesnt mention a rematch with Pacquiao is becuase Top Rank didnt bother to take up the option of promoting his future fights.

    So in effect he is back with Golden Boy until they get fed up of him again.

    Did you see the way his ex raped him in the divorce? He probably had no choice other wise he wouldn't eat!

    Still an excuse nonetheless and when he loses to Canelo it will be redundant!

    WTF? If you pop an Achilles tendon, good chance you're on crutches or not even walking almost immediately.

    If his achilles tendon ruptured, he would not have finished the fight. If Mosley really is making such a claim, it is a pretty sad state he is in. He can dream about rematches, but he'd be smart to keep his focus on the Canelo fight. He fought to a draw with 'The Snake' a couple of years ago, and Canelo has demonstrated he is a level or two higher.

    I know that his ex pulled his pants off, but really there is literally no way you can fight with an injury like that, they would have needed to carry him to the ring
