Comments Thread For: Shane Mosley Reveals He Bet $1M On Himself To Beat Canelo In 2012 Loss When Purse Was $600K

1 million? That's just silly.

So as a shot smaller fighter, you bet on yourself against a much bigger prime fighter? Well you deserve to lose the money then. As the saying goes, "A fool and their money..."

As ****** as this is, the bet is just the second dumbest major decision he's made, with marrying a gold digger being #1.

People hate on a boxer that bets on himself ???

Yall are idiots.

Canelo was very young and hadnt even fought Trout yet. It was far from a foregone conclusion Canelo would beat Mosley.

Plenty of prospects dont pan out. Bute, Munguia, Spence, etc. All hyped up and didn't live up to it

Did we need more proof getting hit in the head and taking PED's cause brain damage?

[Larry the boss]

Watching them both back then, it was clear who was going to win. Mosley stood no chance.

Bute had made many title defences and came up against another great fighter. That is a very different situation. Canelo even now isn't close to being a great fighter. I don't give credit for corruption and weakening fighters to take advantage of them.

Canelo wasn’t prime when he fought Mosely. He was still too green to be prime.
