Mosley is a guy who got to the pinnacle of the sport behind the strength of his accomplishments as a lightweight. To be honest, he was never impressive at welterweight and up, except for the first DLH fight. I remember when people were saying he was unbeatable, and I knew immediately that Forrest was gonna beat the living **** out of him.
Mosley has no boxing skill, just reflexes and experience. He doesn't know how to jab effectively, just kinda paws with the right hand to set up a right. He never impressed me with his technique, but his willingness to fight and strength were stuff you couldn't ignore. While he does have two wins over De La Hoya, those two fights essentially represent all that he's done this decade. I think he's an HOF, but not first ballot. I always thought of him as more a fan favorite than a great fighter.Comment

If somebody that stays at one weight class their entire career can be called an "All time great", why should we think different of somebody that was undefeated and a machine at his original world championship weight, but decided to move up?Comment
