    I could see a ko by Mosley possibly by a body punch.

          I think he's talking about careers at lightweight, if so, he is certainly right.

            But I would've liked to see him in more fights at lightweight before saying that a guy like Duran wouldn't have had a chance at lightweight against a young Mosley.
            Mosley would have never stood a chance against Duran.

              Mosley. Huge power and strength at the weight and he was ****** fast too. He was always an aggressive guy but he was quite elusive back then too. Shane knew that mexican style well having come up in the tough Cali gyms and he had a mean left hook downstairs himself.... Mosley late KO or UD

                  On paper I would pick Mosely..... Wouldn't put it past Castillo to squeeze out one of his signature decisions though

                    Shane's resume at 135 is not that great so I really don't understand how people can make such bold statements as "Shane was unbeatable at lightweight" that is baseless considering the guys he fought there.

                    Prime Castillo would have been Shane's toughest test at LW and in my eyes by some margin I could see either side winning a close decision i lean towards Shane but it would be far from a given.
