Look at both fights vs Winky Wright and you will quickly get your answer right there. Shane is good but he relies too much on his speed and power and not enough skill to win. This is exactly why Winky beat him as easily as he did.
    Wright barely won the rematch.

      Don't argue Winky Wright with Turbo. He HATES Winky Wright. Winky didn't beat him "easily" though in the rematch.

        H2H, it's a good fight, I'm rolling with Floyd on that one. It's all opinions. But Floyd did more at 135 by just beating Jose Luis Castillo, the best LW of his era. That's all I'm saying. And all I mentioned about Sosa was that win is equal to Leija or Molina when Shane beat them. That's all.
        Sosa isn't as good as Molina and Leija. just my opinion.

          Either way, styles make fights.

          Mosley hasn't and never will beat anyone with the jab, skills or ability of Mayweather.

          The only reason he beat Oscar the first time was because Oscar decided to be Macho Man instead of Oscar.

          The second fight Oscar outboxed him with ease I thought.

            He's as good if not better than the versions Shane fought.

            Not that that's saying much.

              I don't hate Wright. I just dislike him

                  I'd pick Floyd. Shane was good, but Floyd's defense is the main difference.

                    Why?

                    The one's Oscar fought are better, absolutely.

                    The irrelelvant, washed up ones Shane fought were about as good, if not worse.

                      Maybe because Sosa never did anything before, or after?
