Shane Mosley Media Interview Transcript

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

OSCAR DE LA HOYA, PRESIDENT, GOLDEN BOY PROMOTIONS: Thank you very much too all the media who is listening in. We are getting closer to the Fast & Furious Saturday November 10, Cotto versus Mosley at the Madison Square Garden. I do want to announce that we are close to a sellout and we expect a sellout at the Madison Square Garden. As you all know this is a much anticipated fight, which most likely will be the event of the year if not the fight of the year. A great indication of that is we have tremendous sponsors lined up for this event who will be marketing and be part of the event with the Puerto Rico tourism board. We have Beowulf, the movie, which will be out shortly. We have Tecate Beer, who's a primary sponsor and also Southwest Airlines. I would like now to introduce to you a trainer and father of Shane Mosley. He is a two-time trainer of the year. He's been with Shane Mosley throughout his whole career, and that is Jack Mosley who will be talking a little bit about how training camp is going. [details]

good stuff, shane sounds confident, and im pretty sure that cotto won't be able to keep up with shane he will be frustrated for 12 rds maybe a TKO

[SkillspayBills]

That was incredibly long. Shane sounds ready to get it on. He may be able to pull this one out but only time will tell.

I've gotten 1/2 way through this.. Printed it up.

Savoring anything we get on this fight..


I'm not fully satisfied with Shane and Jack responding to reporters questions regarding their emphasis on speed and power. Which is it?


Both, is what they're saying - but it sounds more speed to me..

Good news for Cotto. Speed ain't a problem.


Regardless they're being indirect about the issue.

[-Antonio-]

Just skimming through it seems Jack Mosley is the one doing the trash talking.

Just skimming through it seems Jack Mosley is the one doing the trash talking.

He is. Jack is really hung up on the low blows and fouls.

You know me.. I have my own reasons for focusing on that.

But Jack has his own apparently. He said EVERY SINGLE TIME Miguel gets hurt he does that. Even I didn't say that.

But Miguel has done it ALOT. No doubt.

It can leave that impression and clearly has..

He is a dirty fighter - but I like Cotto's response; you do what you have to do to win. I agree, even if it's shady.

I'm partial to Hopkins as a fighter and I have ZERO problems with his tactics.

Low blows are ****ing rotten though. Foul ****.

Shane has a great Shot!!!

I give Shane a great shot at beating Cotto, (who I respect), Shane has a great chin, is always in shape and can punch. Cotto is ripe to get beaten, he was hurt by Judah, Torres, and a couple of other guys. I think Shane TKO round 6.
