If Mosley wins, how much will it enhance his legacy?

Mosley needs a big win

Shane Mosley gets a little credit for beating Vargas twice. He gets a little more credit for beating Collazo(younger fighter). Now he has a chance to get a career defining win in Cotto. He has a good chance to beat Cotto because of the size and styles matchup. I'm a little worried about Mosley's age if it is a really gruelling long fight. Mosley can't regress in this bout or Cotto will come on and do damage.

I think if Mosley wins the fight(especially if he KO's Cotto) then he should think about ending the career in the Garden. This would make him a great in the eyes of many observers,....myself included.
If he choses to fight on and gets a bout with a victorious Mayweather and Beats Mayweather then he instantly becomes an ALL TIME great fighter.
If he loses to Mayweather then it's kind of back to being considered a really good fighter but not great.

I believe he will beat Cotto and then fight Mayweather. I don't know if he can beat Mayweather at his age. Mayweather is a smaller fighter and that gives Mosley a better chance. Remember the only times Mosley struggled with other fighters was when he fought taller, and rangier fighters: DLH, Wright, and Forrest. All with good jabs and good strength.

If it means anything, I believe Mosley used the roids to help move up in weight, not to improve his skills.

He used EPO and stimulants. Which improve your stamina and training.

Your opinion is your opinion, but c'mon man, you seriously think you're not pointing an over-scrupulous finger at a fighter (Mosley) who was never known to have any stamina issues (which EPO helps out) and at nothing more than an allegation at that???
.

Wait.

1. Victor Conte said that Shane was on the program.
2. Shane admits to taking products from BALCO.
3. Shane's name was on a doping calendar seized by the Feds.
4. Shane hematocrit level was 52+ - off the charts.

HOW IS THIS "NOTHING MORE THAN AN ALLEGATION"??

You ****ing people.

Mosely is the favorite in my opinion he has more experience, his looked good in his last few fights and well Cotto is to open for Shane not to KO his ass

i think it would look good for mosely but i think it would look much better for cotto if he beat mosely.
