He DID cheat tho.

Yeah, I like Mosley but he was caught cheating and I don't know how that can be ignored as an HoF inductee. Since his signature wins were against Oscar, and that's the period of time when he was purportedly juicing, that would definitely diminish his overall accoplishment in the sport, at least for me.

He used steroids.

This is probably the only sport where a PED cheat, who was actually caught, can get in the Hall of Fame. The BWAA - BackWards Association of Asshats. Their motto is “Everybody can get in.”

Shame on the Hall of Fame that they allowed a self confessed drug cheat in.
Mosley really expects people to believe he didn't know he was cheating?!!

So that means canelo should not go to hof by that logic lol shane wasnt even officially busted in pre fight testing either like clenelo (twice) and im sure some of u callin out shane are nelo fans too smh hate hate hate!

He didn’t deserve to be in there but who cares. It’s a popularity contest! Look at Gatti. Inducted because of his HBO appearances and being a fan favorite.

Pretty weak resume. HOF should be reserved for the elites only.

Well, i did say "self confessed" with regards to Mosley . . . .

However, I'm with you here, and would have no problem if any fighter failing a drug test for PEDs was excluded.

Thats true i hear ya. I do think peds necessarily help a fighter win, i should know after i bet on fernando vargas to beat de la hoya back in the day lol and he got whooped and failed test after. And many have made it to hof back in the day and were never caught durty since testing was not as strict, so gotta be objective but i think shane gets the most hate over the years for some reason when ped use is brought up.

A drug cheat getting inducted. Shame, not deserves at all.
