Why is Shane Mosley considered "GREAT"? IMO he should never use "Sugar" again!!!

[Grand Champ]

Here we go again.. People always have to demean fighters opposition for some reason.. ''Vargas was shot'' ''He hadn't have a big win since 2000'' It doesn't matter if the man was shot cuz he won BOTH times he faced Vargas beside, look at the fighters he did face and won against.. Yes he lost to Vernon both times But he won against Oscar 2 times as well or did Vernon also beat a shot Mosley? Because according to this logic every time a fighter losses it's because he's shot.. Then Winky won against a shot fighter to and then nobody can call their wins for legit wins because everybody is shot.. Get over yourself and give the fighters some respect.

Good post man, green k.

The thing is that you can make similar cases for a lot of fighters, if anything, ALL fighters. People will always find something wrong with another fighter's competition no matter how much he has accomplished.

By the way, since the guys talking **** are Mayweather fans, there are a lot of "excuses" to be made for his competition as well. Regardless he is a great boxer, for his skills and for what he has accomplished. Difference is, you guys like him.

so he beat Oscar(choker), Vargas(gatekeeper) and Mayorga(shot).

big wow

he barely makes the hof

plus he cheated to get his biggest wins

meh

What will you say if he beats Margarito?? Do you really believe he needed steroids to beat DLH?? If anything, DLH is a bigger guy at 154.. he probably was desperate to bulk up for that fight. He still really didn't have an advantage...Just look at the first fight.

[Thread Stealer]

Mosley may rank high at 135 in terms of talent and potential, but his achievements aren't all that great there. His opposition was weak. His best win was over Philip Holiday.

Mosley is a future HOFer but won't rank especially high on any all-time rankings.

[ferocity]

Mosley is definetly over rated.

[My Name Is...]

Mosley is great!!he ruled 135 with an iron fist jumped up 2 classes to outhustle DLH,lost to Forest and Winky,fought them both again!!fought a hell of a fight against a young lion in Cotto, -

beat the bigger Vargas twice,had a sensational knockout against Mayorga, - You consider those wins GOOD? hahahaha Washed up fused back Vargas and Mayorga ? Really? Hahaha


an has the corazon to step up and fight the 2nd baddest welterweight on the planet in the TIJUANA TORNADO - Because of the Money and he knows it is his last shot.

and u think that aint great!!U must be a mayweather fan!!dodge everyone and claim to be the best!!

Shane is no where near great, only good. He is a cheater on top of that. Those wins against Vargas and Mayo are fights he had to win. He hasnt had a top notch win in over 8 years.

How was Vargas not shot? He had vertebrates in his back fused. He was over weight. I mean Vargas came back and lost decisively to Mayo. What more do you need to show that he was shot.

Do you understand the kind of steroids he took? He took the clear and the cream. They up the red cell count in the blood so that the blood is more oxygenated and you dont get tired as fast because of the higher amount of oxygen in th body.

If I remember right he outhustled Oscar late. Looks like those Steroids came into play.

By the way, I like Mosley. But when he cheated, I want him to have nothing to do with the HOF. The same way I feel for all other athletes that use roids.

^^so what happens if he somehow magically upsets Margo???

He cements a part of his legacy. Do I want him in the HOP if he wins?
