    While his performances were impressive, his level of opposition wasn't. Had he stayed in those weight ranges and fought more credible people, who knows. Mayweather would have beaten him in those same years.

      Mayweather is an ATG...no shame in losing to another ATG

            Don't bother, 90% of the comments were of this sort, as if one can be disdainfully dismissive of debate regarding what in reality is a highly questionable claim.

                Let's be accurate here - Mosley only fought a handful of fights at 135 even, shrinking down from around the 140 limit he fought the majority of his early career at.

                    He was a great fighter with a great career, but I don't think he's an ATG.

                      No on the atg status. shane is a great fighter, definitely hall of fame but he's below atg level in my opinion.
