Ellerbe: We'll look to Mosley if Pac crumbles

[blegit]

I won't bash you at all because I think the same, they will offer Shane the fight in 3-4 years at best just to make sure he's shot.

Floyd already offered to fight Shane back in 99 when Shane and him were both undefeated and Shane declined. he also wanted Shane again after the Vargas knockout when Shane looked great. So, Floyd isn't looking to fight Shane when he's sure he's shot. That's a job for someone like Freddie Roach

Do you have an article or video to back this up? Or is it another case of floyd parrot-itis?

I mean a specific mentioning of floyd saying "i want mosley" much like mosley has been doing him over th past year.

I haven't look for an article on this but I was an avid Mosley fan at the time and I remember it well. I can't believe you don't remember this. Mosley didn't decline he just priced himself out. Mayweather was at 130 and Mosley was the fearsome lightweight and when offered a fight with Mayweather Mosley said he'd need 10 million dollars(something like that it was a crazy number). Even Zab lobbied for Mosley to move up and fight. Shortly after Mosley moved up 2 weight classes. Not saying that Mosley was scared at the time but he did pass up on 2 opportunities with undefeated exciting fighters. He ended up getting DLH so maybe his reason was he didn't want to risk losing that possible opportunity. And the after the Vargas fight this is all over youtube. You can look that up with no problem. Mosley dodged answering the question saying he had to get his teeth fixed and go on vacation with his family.
