      Not really, After getting blasted by Forrest and dominated by Wright he took immediate rematches. He's doesn't run.

        He's being honest about that, but he's being dishonest when he says he'll fight anyone.

            If he can get a fight with Cotto in the short term, fine. If he can't, then fighting the best means fighting either Berto or Williams.

            And being willing to fight the best means being willing to fight any of the top Welterweights.

              No....he said he doesnt think their styles match up well.

              Shane said it himself...he doesnt think he can beat Paul.

                mosley qualifies "i'm willing to fight anyone" with "i won't fight williams"

                  i cant understand why he would want to fight berto , berto is quick and has power but its a situation where mosely assumes the position of " anything you can do i can do better " . and thats just the truth . i guess berto just doesnt bring the desired dough he wants.

                    mosley won impressively against margarito and the fight sold better than any other event at the staples center.

                    mosley is obviously not fighting anyone because he wants to have some leverage in negotiating fights with floyd and cotto.

                    if mosley fights berto and looks bad or the fight doesn't sell well, he won't be able to haggle over money.
