      Bowe, and Tyson really stick out in my mind. They were both from the same neighborhood. Both were very good coming up, but once they reached the top they lost interest in the sport. Bowe a lot sooner than Tyson, or maybe Tyson was just that good that he lasted longer. Both huge disappointments. I'm sure there's more, I just need to be reminded. lol

        And beat...Um, who again?
        He is given a pass by most because he was "too small" to be operating at welter or junior middle.

        I agree with you though...

        I don't know how many fighters get absolutely dominated twice by two different fighters in two different ways. He didn't even just have a guy who had his number, or a style that he couldn't overcome. Two different guys with two styles who dominated Mosley is two different ways.

        Forrest battered him around the ring and Wright outclassed him.

        EDIT: He is widely considered the 2nd best lightweight ever, which is why people keep him so high in their mind.

            I don't know of too many historians that rank Mosley all that highly at lightweight (The Ring had him barely inside the top 20). He is rated fairly highly due to potential and talent, but not on resume. His opposition at 135 was rather weak.

            The top 2 are generally considered to be Roberto Duran and Benny Leonard.

            Pernell Whitaker, for instance, I rank clearly higher than Mosley at 135 because of his achievements there.

            I think Mosley would be a handful though for most lightweights in history. Not just because of his talent, but also because of the weigh-in procedures. He's bigger than most lightweights of the past.

                  Like Stealer said... ability and talent.

                  I guess it wouldn't make sense for me to mention that when you said his accomplishments... my fault Dios. Forgive me?
