In the late 90s, Shane Mosley was a terrific Lightweight Champ.
There's always been lots of lightweights, none could compete with Mosley, he was leagues beyond them.
HBO used to put on these Double-Headers, a prime Roy Jones and a prime Shane Mosley on the same bill.
Larry Merchant said on one of those shows something about both these guys were like super-human, words to that effect. They both were amazing combinations of speed, power, reflexes, endurance.
Anyone trying to say Mosley was prime in the Margarito fight 10 years after those HBO double-headers is either an idiot or a young fan of Boxing...
