    He is not quite in their class, but what you are doing is mentioning the 2 most well-known and good "Sugar" fighters. How does Mosley match up to this guy?

        bam....right on the button

        I don't think there's a fighter on the P4P list with a better KO highlight reel than Shane....I will prove it in a thread to come......the ULTIMATE highlight reel gif thread is what I'll call it....stay tuned!!!

          He's not done yet.

          Well, if the right people will fight him.

            Shane has lived up to the nickname sugar

            There is no doubt that he has. Just as the previous Sugars fought the best of their eras, so has Shane Mosley. Not only has he fought the best, he also possesses the necessary all around boxing skills that really makes the moniker what it truly means. Sugar Ray Robinson is the first to wear the POUND 4 POUND TITLE as well. And it was because he could do everything in the ring very well. Ray Leonard possessed that skill set and so does Shane. Shane can do it all in the ring. He can box, punch, has good defense, can take a punch, can fight going forward or backwards, and is always in great condition to fight a full 12 round fight down to the wire. A fighter who is nicknamed Sugar must not only fight the best of his era but also have the skills necessary to do everything well in the ring. Shane has it!!

                He's HOF. No reason he hasn't lived up to the name.

                  Mosley resembles the way Robinson fights more so than anybody including Leonard.

                      I'd say he's done a decent job with the nickname.
