Top Rank, in association with Bash Boxing, Art of Boxing Promotions, and Oceanview Pavilion in Port Hueneme, California, will bring Solo Boxeo Tecate on Unimas to boxing-rich Ventura County on Saturday, April 26, 2014.

In the special feature attraction, Shane D. Mosley Jr., the son of Three-Weight World Champion and former pound-for-pound great "Sugar" Shane Mosley, will make his professional boxing debut. The younger Mosley, who got a late start in boxing at the age of 16, will have his legendary father in his corner as trainer for his much-anticipated first bout as a professional.

Cool, I'm a sucka for this type of scenario... supporting Jrs because of what their relatives did in boxing. You kind of hope and think the name will live on thru them with similar success. We'll see.


Same thing with De La Hoya's nephew, Diego. He is fighting this weekend again and I have been following him for a while. Probably if his name was something else I wouldn't have been interested. The kid is pretty entertaining to watch though.

Floyd Mayweather Jr proved on the biggest stage that it's very possible to go beyond what your father and uncles achieved so it demonstrates the potential for other boxers to go on to be just as good or even better than their forefathers..

Eh I've seen him fight amateur. He's picked up on some of the negative traits/habbits of Shane (shotty balance and at time overly hyper footwork), but I've yet to see him show any of the greatness Shane possessed in speed, power, and heart.

[Hougigo]

Heard he wasn't very good

Heard he wasn't very good

He's not, he's one of the rumored sparring partners for Canelo that he was sending home when he was preparing for Floyd.
