    steroids-> without roids lost all of his big fights except margarito without bricks and shot vargas.
    I know mosley is better then this but still he always was a little bit overrated.

    I think his DeLaHoya bouts were some of best battles.....I am(was) a Shane Mosley fan, the pre-2008 one........Now he is fishing for paydays..which in itself is okay, just don't insult my intelligence with promising battles in exchange for friendly sparring matches.

    I was more looking at how many quality fighters he has on his resume more so then wins or losses. That's 11 quality guys majority being high quality. 2 of them being considered the best of a decade and multiple hall of famers.

    He was in his prime still and its a very good resume, Your analysis is very boiased for example when oscar fought floyd he wasnt as past his prime like shane and it was at 154 not 147

    lost to duran
    won duran 2 knewing duran would get fat after fights and made the fight quickly.
    Defeated green hearns
    Waited for hagler to get past prime, ran like a ***** and get a undeserved decision.
    Lost to hearns but got a gift draw.
    Had a pointless rubbermatch with a shot duran
    Lost to norris and got ktfo by featherfisted camacho.
    :D
    You can really do this to any boxer but in mosleys case things are a bit more true then in rays career

    he wasnt on roids on his first victory over oscar , it is easy to look over a resume and be critical. consistently not ducking opponents until there shot and weight drained or asking them for pathetic catchweights should be given credit for. His resume is credible and a hall of famers at that

    He's definitely Hall of Fame worthy, but as far as the all-time greats go... he maybe ranks somewhere around 100. He may not even be within the 100 actually. Great resume when compared to the average fighter, not so great when compared with The Greats of All Time.

    Pretty damn good resume, but I think people dont give him enough credit for the quality of competition he fought. How many fighters would have rematched the monsters that beat him RIGHT AWAY. Shane was a true warrior, Hall of Famer and is his resume for me does crack the top 100 ATG.... just by an inch. H2H however, in terms of all time great... I have him EXTREMELY high... particularly at lightweight. I think they where maybe only 2 or 3 lightweights in history that could beat Shane on his best day.
