    By Cliff Rold - By Christmas morning 2009, Santa will have exited and the cookies will be gone. That will be a good thing for the World’s best Welterweight. [details]

      And if Mosley loses to Clottey the rollercoaster starts all over again.

      I sympathize for Mosley. He's one guy in boxing that is willing to fight the tough opponents even when the odds are stacked against him.

          One of the best pieces written about Mosely....sums up his career to a tee....fights the guys that no one else would dare....and I'm more than willing to give him two freebies...."The Juice" and his toothache excuse for not fighting Floyd....his overall career is what the definition of Warrior and Champion should be.

            Mosley ain't getting ****. Win or lose against Clottey he's probably still gonna have to settle for less. Give the man what he deserves already! he's 38 years old ffs.

            Mosley vs Berto in 2010 and if he beats Berto then Mosley vs the winner of Pacquiao vs Mayweather(If Pac beats Cotto of course).

                Mosley unfortunate? Come on. In no other sport would he have gotten away with taking the substances he admittedly did.

                And despite losing 5 out of 13 fights since 2002, he is still considered to be a superstar? Hats off for his win against Margarito, but Mosley has been erratic. And he has gotten the respect he deserves, and a little bit more...

                  Am not feeling any sympathy for Mosley at all, He has been in some great match ups, Great paydays and he was exactly like the rest when they're at the top...Arrogant....Only Cotto and i would say it again Only Cotto gave people a chance when he didnt have to.
