Shane Mosley at Welterweight

[Mr. Ryan]

After watching him get pummeled in consecutive fights by Winky Wright, I thought to myself "Mosley is done." I felt a little bad, as I have been rooting against him for a very long time. I cheered my heart out when Forrest brutally assaulted him twice for the Welterweight title.

Now I watch Cory Spinks and Zab Judah as they chase boxing fans out of the sport with their boring, monotonous fights and forgettable press conferences. I thought all was lost at 147 when Cintron-Margarito was put in jeopardy until hearing of the returns to Welterweight by the 2 most exciting welterweights of the last 5 years, Oscar De La Hoya and Sugar Shane Mosley.

With Spinks and Judah, the 2 most recognizable faces at 147, fighting for the Welterweight title, it would be good to see true superstars at the welterweight level. With De La Hoya returning later this year to welterweight and Shane Mosley looking to return by the Spring, things are looking optomistic for a change.

How would De La Hoya and Mosley match up with the top welterweights in the world:

1. Cory Spinks
2. Zab Judah
3. Antonio Margarito
4. Kermit Cintron

shane and oscar could easily beat all of them. we might see dlh-mosley 3

i understand people writing off mosley but you have to agree that a fast fleetfooted 147 mosley with goosen getting him back to the combo throwing will gamefully beat all at 147. so can dlh. i would think big money dlh will be the first in line to fight the winner of the spinks/judah just to easily collect all those belts then he'll retire and get on to the bussiness side of boxing. if and when dlh collect those welterweight belts he wont chance loosing them against mosley, he'll retire on a positive note.

Mosely #1
DLH #2
Spinks sucks, Zab won't do anything until he KOs his dad from his corner.

I can`t understand this Spinks bashing! Spinks beat marorga and Judah. He is fast and seems to have a good chin. He is also young and in his prime, can`t say the same for Oscar or Shane. I think with these guys returning to the division is defentley ****es it up a little but i am not gonna write off Spinks because he has a boring style. The guy can fight, i would pick him against Mosley, even money with Oscar!

I think that the Mosely without Balco will not be the same one that barely beat DLH a couple years ago.

However, since he can still make $1,000,000 per fight, he is not going anywhere.

[Mr. Ryan]

I can`t understand this Spinks bashing!

Spinks was keeping the belts warm for the next great fighter to come along and take the belts from him. He beat Mayorga and Judah, so what? They aren't exactly Duran and Robinson. Spinks is a pedestrian fighter who happened to stumble upon a few trinkets.
