(The Ring): "Mosley Wouldn't Get My HOF Vote"

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Shane is a first ballot HOFr.

Yeah....keep ignoring the facts.

Mosley was a great fighter at his peak. I dont know how you can deny him into the HOF. I mean seriously, there are so many worse fighters that made it in the HOF. In fact, most of the fighters in there are worse then him.

He took steroids..so no hall for him.

Former lightweight. welterweight, and jr middleweight champion? Mosley is in. It is a no brainer. And for anyone that cries steroids, I hope their favorite fighter tests positive. Shane never did.

Scott,

That "never tested positive" argument is SOOOOO ******. The reason they went to BALCO is because BALCO developed an undetectable steroid. marion Jones never tested positive.

Shane ADMITTED that he took steroids.

No, he admitted he took Balco not knowing what it was. He also passed a polygraph concerning him not knowingly taking steroids. And still, he was a great lightweight and welterweight before any of that.

If Clemens can come clean why can't Shane?

All I've got to say on this is...

If Mosley didn't get into the HOF I would be seriously ****ing pissed off and I would never buy a copy of The Ring ever again. He's one of the best lightweights off all time FFS!

Yep, basically.

[BennyST]

name them.

I must admit, I would like to hear who they are as well.

Shane was a great fighter and should get the nod. His only problem was going up too far in weight. If he had been able to win in either one of his rematches against Forrest or Wright I think he would be a definite but as it stands the only hard fights he had up at WW or LM apart from Oscar he lost. Then lost again in both of his rematches. The Vargas win WAS good but it was still against the Vargas that had already been KO'ed by 'Tito' and Oscar and he was a shell by this stage already.

I don't know. I'm pretty sure he will get it, maybe not a first ballot guy, but he will get it. He was a great fighter.
