    It was for sure on the agenda after Wright I, but he lost.

    Then Trinidad expanded to double his size, and Shane went back down.

    Also, Kostya Tszyu would have been a great fight for a superstar lightweight who is moving up in weight... no idea why he skipped a weight that actually might have served him well, or at least better than 147 immediately.
    I like the guy, but he cheated. His likeable personality usually gets him a pass though. Imagine if Mayorga or Margarito would have been doing their shopping at Balco? Career over.

      Spotlight his resume, bring up the roids allegations, say what you want about Mosely but the man is class…no fake antics to hype up fights, no lame excuses after losses, no pouty retirements and he fought whoever they put in front of him

        He has got 5 losses 2 to Forrest (ex Champ) 2 to Winky (ex champ) and 1 to Cotto (ex champ) if you look at the guys at the time he fought them they were all considered top rank or up and coming. he beat DLH 2 times not an easy task. he beat Vargas 2 times. He won belts at 135, 147 and 154. he is #2 ranked WW right after Marg.....Not too bad of a resume.....Lefty

          He bitched about the 2nd Wright decision.

          And roiding up seems to be the opposite of the classy thing to do.

          Inaccurate. He is #4 behind Margarito, Williams and Cotto according to The Ring.

          By the way, ABC belts don't necessarily make someone great. Forrest's career has been anything but spectacular.

          The second DLH was "questionable" at best.

          Vargas was shot out of a cannon both times.

            You're gonna blast him for losing to wright? Oscar in his prime wouldn't have done so well against Wright. NOONE wanted that fight, the dude is a puzzle. I commend Shane for even taking that fight and he adjusted VERY WELL in the rematch. Blame his wife for making the worst possible career choices when he had all the talent in the world. Also, I thought he beat Cotto, and even being 1-1 against prime Oscar is pretty impressive. Losing to only 3 fighters when you are a 3 division champ is nothing to cry about. You guys are making too big a deal of his shortcomings. Shane is a great fighter and a hall of famer no doubt.

                    Dude let me sit in Oscar's seat and chat him up for a few mins at the Hopkins-Wright fight (when Hopkins tapped dat ass).
