    tough for those guys to stop doing something they've done their whole lives. i get it. but it's a lot to risk when you have nothing to prove. hopefully he just sticks to being apart of the game outside the ring.

    Mosley was one of my favorites for a time but when he quit he couldnt pull the trigger anymore. It was just wait wait wait. No speed and no reflexes. He also got cramps chronically and fatigued easy. He should stay retired.

    This is spurred on by his sons recent loss no doubt.

    Good on him. He's got plenty left in the tank.

    I sure hope that Sugar Shane Mosley doesn't make a comeback. At the time of his retirement, Shane was a shell of his former self and had been fighting far too long. Hope that Shane has a decent amount of money salted away. If he doesn't, it may that that he should get a job. It is better than tempting fate.

    Jeez no way DUDE is an old 43, last time he was competitive was way back in 2007 when he whipped Vargas, just hang up the gloves and get a 9-5 job:patsch..

    I thought he and De la Hoya were friends, he should just ask him for employment doing chores, errands, whatever..:patsch

    He helps promote with Golden Boy, I've no idea of him being in a financial crises, must be a pride thing.

    People need to stop vilifying Jin. :roll:

    1st off, she did a lot for Shane when they were together.

    2nd, not that much of the details of the dissolution of their marriage were ever made public, but reading between the lines, he was probably at fault.

    3rd, no ex-spouse can take "all" of someone's money. At most they can take half. If he mismanaged his own half of his considerable earnings - which are still more than most boxers will ever see in their lifetime - that is on him.

    This is the thing I have a hard time reconciling. I was a big fan of both Holyfield and Mosely but both guys were steroid cheats and Im rabid anti PED in sports proponent. Essentially two of my favorite fighters turned out to be cheaters. Holyfield was obvious from day one but Shane I was blind to and Im usually good at picking those guys out. Its a hard pill to swallow but his career has to be suspect now. Anyone who thinks these guys were doing it for one or two fights is nuts.
