Is Shane Mosley really that big of a deal anymore, or is he just a big name??

I second that entire post..... For whatever assets Mosley HAS kept which people are focusing on, that is all well and good for most of WW, but he's up against Pac who is as dangerous as anyone who has ever walked in the ring at WW since boxing began..... While we all speculate about how much Mosley has slipped since his best days, in perspective, Pac is flawless at the moment and has no weakness which will give Mosley a chance to win....

It's just too tough.... We can argue for Mosley all day long for just about any other fight, but not against Pac...

I agree.


but my point is. people nowadays would tag a fighter 'shot' from a single bout.



ROY is shot because he was consistently beaten and kayoed by BUMS.
Shane was beaten by Floyd Mayweather Jr. w/c we even expect in the 1st place and now Shane is definately shot to pieces? lets wait for guys like Canelo and Berto to beat Shane 1st before we declare this shall we?

as i stated. Evander looks horribly shot againts Bowe and went on to KTFO Mike Tyson who was the heavy favorite.

But Holyfield wasn't in his 40's. Stick the Holyfield that fought Toney in there with that version of Tyson and I bet Holyfield looks shot.
