its not a tumor , its an idea , of boxers collecting names instead of belts. and in my opinion IF Mosely comes loses then the one time steroid user does not deserve the highest regarded of nick names.
a ray leonard or robinson are a million miles greater than shane just like hearns is to hatton but its only a name. Its up to the fighter to justify it
Of course Shane does first off he fits the role of the previous great Sugars thats fast hands, good left hook, great body punching, fight anyone, fast feet and power and a great chin. The resume backs Shane up 4 time Champion in 3 weight classes, one of the most dominant Lightweights ever, wins over DLH 2x, Vargas 2x, Collazo, Margarito, Molina, Leija, Mayorga, Holliday etc.
Sugar Ray Robinson was the true "Sugar". To me, Sugar Ray Leonard was worthy of it and he asked permission from Robinson to use the name. In my opinion, Mosley is a great fighter, but not a Sugar. If he were to beat Mayweather, I probably wouldn't change my mind. And no, Floyd doesn't deserve the name Sugar.
I think shane is the only boxer right now capable of being a sugar. Roy jones could have been at 168.
:yep Well said and I don't mean that in sarcastic way, I just think he is less great than the two previous Sugars.
