Mosley's Lawyer: I Don't Aim A Gun Unless I Intend To Use It

What sense does it make to draw up a contract, accept it, now want to renegotiate? What sense does it make to draw up a contract, accept it, now want to renegotiate? I know Floyd doesn't want to spit money with Shane Mosley, so why did he agree verbally? Shane has PBF right where he wants him. He will get more money then he should, and its PBF's fault for agreeing so soon. There's no way PBF can back out of the fight, and I don't see Mosley budging much. Fight will still happen May 1st.....But PBF will not be a happy camper.

Shane Mosley Awaiting Floyd Mayweather's Signature Since the BALCO scandal of 2003, after he subsequently admitted having unknowingly used the steroids, the cream," and, "the clear," Shane Mosley has been the most prominent boxer as far as being fairly or unfairly linked to performance-enhancing drugs. So when the negotiations for a proposed bout between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao fell apart primarily over Pacquiao's refusal to be random blood-tested no closer than 14 days of their bout, and Mayweather-Mosley became a possibility, two of the first questions generally raised were whether or not the Mayweather camp would make similar demands of Mosley, and whether the latter, indeed, would go where Pacquiao would not. It did, and, Mosley did. On Friday, the 38-year-old Mosley (46-5, 39 knockouts) signed a bout contract to fight the 32-year-old Mayweather (40-0, 25 KOs), even as the deal requires that both fighters agree to the same Olympic-style, random blood-testing as Mayweather's insisted upon during their scuttled negotiations with Pacquiao (50-3-2, 38 KOs). "The terms of the agreement did not question him. What happened was seven years ago, and Shane has taken the hits for it, and I believe that his name has been unfairly taken through the mud," said Mosley's attorney, Judd Burstein, who carefully went over the contract with the WBC's super welterweight (147 pounds) champion on Friday in Las Vegas. "The issue is that Shane doesn't care about what testing somebody wants," said Burstein of Mosley, who stands to receive his largest payday against Mayweather. "If they want it, they can have it. He's completely unconcerned. He knows that he's not a cheater." That same day, Burstein said that he immediately informed the CEO of Mayweather's promotional company, Leonard Ellerbe, of Mosley's actions, and that he was assured that Mayweather's signature would be forthcoming "in the next two days." On Monday, Burstein said Mayweather's adviser, Al Haymon, confirmed that Mayweather would sign the deal "Today." But by late Tuesday there still was no signature from the unbeaten five-time champion. "I spoke to Al Haymon today, and he said that we have a deal, and it will be done. But then, I've been told that it was going to be done every day since Saturday," said Burstein. "I keep getting assurances that we have an agreement, yet I can't get any explanation as to why there's been no signature," said Burstein. "I have no issue with Al Haymon. I think that he's a great guy and he's very honorable," said Burstein. "But he's not his client, so I don't blame him. I blame his client." Ellerbe had no comment. "It's becoming a serious problem from my side that may have serious repercussions," said Burstein, indicating that the fighters will meet in the ring or in court. "Anybody who knows me knows that I don't aim a gun unless I intend to use it." Just as the Mayweather camp suddenly thought of Olympic-style random blood testing for the fight with Pacman, they might be cooking up something Mosley would eventually refuse.

That article makes it sound as if they are not requiring Mosley to take any specific type of testing. Accordin to that article, Mosley's lawyer reviewed the contract, stated that they didn't question him on the steroid incident and Mosley signed it. And "IF" they want any particular testing, Mosley would oblidge.

There's already a meeting of the minds..The signature is aimed merely to fomalize it..Anything that has been agreed upon by the parties verbally is enforceable..

shane aint got the wbc's belt he gots the wba belt. Oh, same difference:ugh:

Lmao, is it really coming to this? I'm not gonna get my panties in a bunch over hype, but this is funny.

"Judd Burstein, who carefully went over the contract with the WBC's super welterweight (147 pounds) champion on Friday in Las Vegas." :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I think it means super champ at welter, with that new ridiculous super champ bullshit.
