During last September's HBO broadcast for Shane Mosley vs. Ricardo Mayorga, the entire HBO crew ignored the national headlines that were swirling on the subject of the BALCO controversy and Mosley's involvement. Mosley was a client of the BALCO lab in 2003. He admitted during the Federal BALCO trial that he used and injected himself with BALCO products to prepare for the 2003 rematch with Oscar De La Hoya. Mosley has denied that he knowingly took illegal performance boosters. He said BALCO founder Victor Conte told him the products being provided were legal supplements. Conte disputed Mosley's account of the facts and sued him for defamation. The lawsuit is ongoing. [details]

That's unnecessary. I understand he's going to have to answer questions at some point and thats fine, but to do it at a huge fight, I mean come on. There's a time and a place for everything...Comment

LOL, at the fact that Mosley's attorney said he would jump in front of Larry Mercant and advise Shane not to answer any questions on the BALCO allegations. Yeah, Mosley's gonna look really tough if he has to have his lawyer defend him....

Nice job, HBO. Milk the cow for all it's worth, then drop a anvil on it's head. I swear, **** is ****ing disgusting.
Cong****. You are taking the baseball route on this one. Have McGuire, Sosa, and Bonds practically save the league, then turn your backs on them.
This song is relevant....

HBO should at least modifiy Mosley's nickname to "Artifical Sugar" Shane or "Sweet and Low" Shane. Nothing natural about his sugar.Comment

HBO will probably bring up the topic after the fight. They're not gonna taint their show with something that makes them look bad. I'm all for Shane being exposed. Who knows how many other fights he was juiced for. One thing for sure, after he stopped, he got his ass beat by everyone. Forrest, Wright, Cotto, and now Margarito.Comment
