It appears that Shane Mosley has officially stopped chasing Manny Pacquiao for a fight. Mosley's decision means the proposed fight between Pacquiao and WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto is going to move forward, without distractions, on November 14 in Las Vegas. Richard Schaefer, CEO for Golden Boy Promotions, told the Los Angeles Times that Mosley ordered him to stop all attempts at making a fight with Pacquiao.
"Shane says he'll be the last man standing, anyway," Schaefer told The Times. "Shane's legacy is intact, and it's not dependent on a Pacquiao yes or no."
Mosley told Schaefer to explore possible fights with WBC champion Andre Berto, and former champions Kermit Cintron, Paul Williams and Joshua Clottey.
