Mosley-Berto Talks Positive, Fight Not Likely in 2009

[dans]

Wtf is wrong with HBO's budget this year?

Everyone's budget's are screwed. Economy.

Aside from that, they've wasted money on fights that didn't end up happening.

Hope it happens so I can rob reed of his points!

****, I thought the title saidtestspositive. My mistake

Even at 37 Mosley is still a great fighter and a threat 2 anyone in the 147 pound division. Other fighters avoid him like the plague ever since they saw what he did to Margarito. If he ends up losing a fight it will just be brushed off as him being over the hill and if he wins the other boxers such as Beto will be exposed. Floyd doesn't wanna risk his perfect record against Shane and Pacquiao is scared 2 fight Mosley as well.

Really I'd like to see Mosely vs Cintron and Berto Clottey on the same night kind of the way that Hatton and Paulie did it so that if they both won they would fight each other in their next bout and it would do the job of promoting the fight so i agree with you on the stance that they should fight on the same night but i would personally rather seem them fight different guys than you would but im glad mosley is starting to get the idea that he isnt going to be fighting pac for a while into his head

That would be great. The problem is that such long-term building up of fighters is not in Mosley's interests. He wants to get paid now. Too bad nobody is out there for him. Might as well unify with Berto while the other big dogs are fighting each other. I see a Mosley/Cotto rematch happening mid 2010.

I'm so damn mad if this news is true. Shane is my favorite fighter, but a ****in year!!!!! Cotto is going to fight 3x and Berto might also fight 3x this year. Shane could have fought Berto in May or Cotto is June. I'm so damn mad that he said publicly that he only wants big money fights. That's what messed him up if you ask me. I can't really fault him for saying that. But certain things you just can't say. They hype after the Margo fight is about to die down.

I hope Arum offers him the Clottey fight. A year is bad, because it makes fights with Pac or Cotto vs Mayweather easier. Nobody is waiting on Shane now.

I been said that was going to happen when he first started rambling
on about waiting for Pac. Nobody was caring about Mosley even though
he is the top guy at 147. He should have at least fought another time
for another title and made himself more bankable BUT he opted
to consider himself higher than anyone else did. I'm surprised
Oscar didn't school Shane.

Oscar isnt thinking about Shane. All he cared about was Victor Ortiz. Plus he knows that a fight with Floyd vs Pac will make him alot of money. To be honest they probably did tell Shane to calm down. But he wouldn't listen and paid for it. He better hope that Cotto beats Pac. That's his only chance if you ask me. The two people I look up to Mosley and Nas make some bad choices in life. I don't want to be like them at all. But there my two favorites also. Floyd to, but he is getting his paper, lol

[GRUSTLER]

Shane should have never fought Winky Wright. He could have went down to 147 and tried to fight Judah, Spinks, or Mayorga. Could have fought Hoya for $10 mill. Could have fought Floyd at 147. It was the perfect setup. He dominated Vargas and Floyd beat Judah in a dominate performance. I feel he is the only one who really had a chance to beat Floyd also prime 4 prime. His wife and dad ****ed his career up in a sense.

Shane please fight somebody

You sir are correct!!

That was Shane's biggest mistake, "HIS BUSINESS DECISIONS".
Sometimes I think Shane just lives in his own world.
