Chris Littman of The Sporting Blog is on assignment in Miami for the Super Bowl, where he managed to catch up with welterweight champion Shane Mosley at a Reebok Zigtech event. Chris was kind enough to ask Shane a few questions for the Rumble.
Shane's long awaited fight with Floyd Mayweather was finalized earlier this week after a proposed bout with Andre Berto fell though due to the tragedy in Haiti. While Mayweather-Mosley isn't quite as exciting as Mayweather-Pacquiao, it's a fight boxing fans have been waiting to see for years. It's great to see the classy Mosley get another huge fight.
Mosley is taking some time off from training before he ramps up for the Mayweather fight on May 1. Shane seems confident in his ability to beat Mayweather, though it will be a difficult task.
Shane also talks about his belief that Antonio Margarito - who had his boxing license revoked for attempting to use illegal handwraps in their fight last year - should be given the opportunity to box again. Shane gives his pick for the Pacquiao-Clottey fight and says he would love a chance to meet Pacquiao if the opportunity arises.
Thanks again to Chris for his excellent work.
