What grade do you give Shane Mosley

[_Rexy_]

A as a Lightweight thats for sure.


Also, I'm sure it's been mentioned but Briggs beats Wilder.

[blowblow]

A- he almost ktfo floyd.

[Rockin']

B/B+ ..........Rockin'

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

A+. First ballot HOF’er.

[ShaneMosleySr]

I’m going to post in this one because I’m already offended lol.

A+ without question.

Oscar De La Hoya was only the third man to go the distance with Shane Mosley and that was Mosley’s 35th professional fight.

He moved up two weight classes to beat De La Hoya.

He was a 7 year pro at that point who was an absolute monster at 135.

He fought De La Hoya in 2000.

From 2000-2010, the only men to beat him were Vernon Forrest, Winky Wright, Miguel Cotto and Floyd Mayweather. That’s after being a 17 year pro who started out as a lightweight!

Mosley was the IBF champ and an undefeated monster at 135. He was a two time lineal champ at 147 and a lineal champ at 154.

He was formerly the number one P4P fighter.

If he doesn’t get an A+, A+’s don’t exist.

People just ignore the first 34 fights of his career for some reason and judge him for losing to absolute legends a million miles away from his first weight class.

He’s the exact reason why no one will take a risk anymore.

He fought everyone. Any weight, any time.

Shane Mosley would have retired 75-0 if he came up in this generation.

If you don’t give Shane Mosley and A+, this grading system is wrong.

I would say B+. He looked invincible at 135, but he was not lineal or unified at the weight, and didn't really beat any GREAT lightweight. I give him a ton of credit for being the first guy to CLEARLY beat Oscar. That's a great victory. His victory over Margarito is very good. Him being caught roiding does put an asterisk on his career though....I had to think about this deeply.

I love Shane, but what were his best wins at lightweight?

It's going to be very interesting to see how the majority votes this.
