Comments Thread For: Schaefer Finds it Tough To Get Mosley Back on HBO/SHO

[hitmanjosh]

I like Mosley but you can have a pretty woman

Without putting your life on the line. He's accomplished as an amature and professional more than people could dream of so if it's the woman you support get a new less expensive one or just change your lifestyle. Don't do it Champ!

It is his body,his life and boxing is his chosen career. He is still worthy of being a test to up and coming young fighters.
No one has the right to tell what he should or should not do

But why should/would a future Hall of Famer want to downgrade themselves like that?

Mosley can't get any current belt holders to fight him, so he takes on up and comers for less money. Makes sense, but who'd really care to see it?

Mosley fought a guy on the up in his last fight, and was taken to the cleaners. So much that he even announced his retirement shortly after the Canelo fight

it is Mosley's body and his life ... but at some point someone needs to step in and tell him he's done. Face the facts, Mosley hasn't won a fight since 2009. While his level of opposition has been relatively high (Pac, Mayweather, Canelo) what's concerning is Mosley's excuses for these losses have been injuries ... it's a sign his body is breaking down

so he shouldn't foolishly continue when he's broken down and past his prime. He needs to get that ridiculous tribal tattoo lasered off and move into commentating or training fighters

because he's not an in demand name people want to see fight, which makes it harder for him to land a fight in the first place

Broner vs Mosley coming up after broner beats malignaggi! I'm calling it now

[tonyjones]

Oh so because Mosley wasted all his money were supposed to feel sorry for him,he was a great fighter who earned and got enough pay days now its over simple as that

I know Shane regrets messing up that job with Golden Boy right about now.

[IronDanHamza]

Well he hasn't won a fight in over 4 years so it's no surprise. He's looked outright awful in his last 4 fights and took a lot of punishment in 3 of them. Mentally and physically.

It's crazy how things unfold, his 3-4 years ago Mosley was considered to be one of the P4P best fighters in the world and one of the most avoided fighters in Boxing.

Look at him now, at the bottom of the barrel.

[New England]

Don't see what the point is for Shane to keep going. A future HOF, why drag yourself down to that level? Also, isn't he a GBP partner? He should be making some money through that. If he has to fight again, put him in with Malignaggi. That's about what I want to see.

goldenboy sent him a check for 1500 dollars as a buy out. he probably cleared it. i don't think he ever had any legitimate stake in that company.


so no, to answer your question.

Holy shit! I think you're right!

[Tonyu]

How the in hell is this guy keep getting shots at world titles - he has'nt won a fight in 4 years it looks like reputation is getting him the shots instead of performances - how come the sanctioning bodies keep authorising this - we all know Shane gets paid well irrelevant of performances - can common sense please prevail, I say well done to the TV Networks for their stance on this.

HBO and Showtime are done with Mosley he needs to retire
