Man......alot of people thought Shane Mosley deserved the 'Sugar' title after he stormed through the 130lb division knocking people out looking almost unbeatable and then beating Oscar.
There is only one sugar and that is Ray Robinson. The rest of these jokers are not qualified to clean his shoes. :blood
Larry said that he was deserdful of the Sugar tag, the third Sugar after Robinson and Leonard. Floyd, M. Taylor, RJJ, Sweet Pea, Joey C, they are all sweet ( even Malignaggi I have to admit) - it's just a nickname...
Shane deserves it for sure his career is a first ballot Hall of Fame type he did everything a real fighter does. Dominated and pretty much cleared out the Lightweight divison as Champ jumped to Welterweight and clearly beat one of the best fighters in the world Oscar DLH and even beat him agian to win a title at 154 when we thought he career was over. He tried to avenge his defeats to Winky and Forrest and will do so if Cotto actually gives him a chance to also Shane gave rematches to tough wins in DLH and Vargas. Anyman whos a 3 time world Champ is 3 divisons with a win resume over DLH 2x,Vargas 2x,Collazo,Leija,Holliday,Cotto etc is worthy of being called Sugar.
