But for Mosley to get to a big money fight, he will have to get by WBC welterweight champion Andre Berto (25-0, 19 KO’s), a fighter that is 12 years younger than Shane and who’s fought half as many pro fights during his young six year career.

Mosley, 38, has been in against the much better competition during his career, facing the likes of Winky Wright, Fernando Vargas, Oscar De La Hoya, Vernon Forrest, Ricardo Mayorga, Luis Collazo, Miguel Cotto, Antonio Margarito and Raul Marquez.

Most of the time they don’t want to fight other top fighters, and decide to fight opponents who don’t stand a chance. This is why people say boxing is going downhill, but you still get fighters who fight the best, like Manny Pacquiao, Shane Mosley and Juan Manuel Marquez and even Ricky Hatton who’s never been scared to go up against the pound for pound best.
