Shane Mosley really shouldn't be a first ballot hall of famer

[hectari]

Seriously when you go over his accomplishments, what makes him so great?

Floyd has better accomplishments than him at the lower weights.

So basically now if you fought everyone but lost you should get into the hall of fame? Just becuaes you didn't duck anyone?

I'm not saying Shane shouldn't be in the hall but people hype him up too much, he isn't a first ballot guy, maybe he could get in on the third try in a weaker voting year?

He beat up a washed up Vargas, was getting outboxed by a one dimensional brawling washed up Mayorga and than pulls off a last ditch KO, Lost to Floyd, Lost to Vernon twice, lost twice to winky wright, lost to Miguel Cotto he did good in the fight but lost, used steroids for Oscar, and was given a gift in the rematch, lost to Pacquiao ran like a scared cat in that fight, lost to Canelo, his best win is Antonio Margarito. and his lightweight reign is kinda weak most notable name is jesse james leija.

he shouldn't be first ballot but he should be in if the comp is weak? so what if the comp is weak on the first ballot???

shane was a great lightweight. he jumped 2 divisons and beat de la hoya in his prime. there were no steroids involved in that fight. don't nit pick. give the man his respect. sugar shane is a hall of famer.

PEDs alone should keep him out

I agree. It will be interesting to see how boxing voters handle the issue since baseball voters have made a firm commitment to keeping cheats out regardless of when/how long they used PEDs for.

were it not for the PED-factor, he'd belong there without a doubt. but...

Margaritos a hall of famer for calling out Floyd. Shane should be a hall of famer for knocking Margarito out.

He beat a prime Oscar. Had a great LW career, second to Duran.

Dudes a proven steroid user, so he shouldn't be in it at all

One of the best ever at 135, pre-PED scandal. Definitely made a lot of bad career choices though.
