    THIS is Shane.

    That should've been his last fight. Anything after that was going to be disappointing.

      Mainly because about 35 of the 41 were cab drivers and also, like others have said, because Mosley was an elite fighter and it's a shame to see someone who was on his level fight so long that now he's just an average fighter. He looked ok in the beginning against Canelo, but towards the end of the fight his punches made Joe Calzaghe seem like Gerry Cooney.

Sure a KO is no way to end your career, but neither is retiring prematurely knowing you could win another belt and earn some extra cash before closing time.
        glad you still got faith in him.....i dont

          I wouldn't mind Mosley - Bundrage at the Staples Center as a farewell bout.

          The problem is it won't be that. If Mosley wins he will feel that he revived his career and look for another payday

            IMO noone is questioning Mosley's heart and dedication to the game. But maybe he should serve it in a different capacity- say like help train his son? anything.. As a fighter, he has already gave us many great fights and still has his wits. He should stay ahead of the game.

              Mosley needs to hang em up already.

              He's already had a great, hall of fame career. If he continues to fight, he could seriously mess up his health.

              He has nothing else to prove.

                  It's not his toughest fight. Gomez was winning the fight before the weak stoppage.

                      Shane Mosley had a great career, but it's time to hang em up. If you didn't see it on May 5th then you should just go back to watching Desperate Housewives.
