Shane Mosley to Floyd Mayweather: 'Quit running'


by Brian VanOchten

The two American fighters have been accused of dodging each other since the late 1990s, but Mosley is tired of waiting. He wants to be next on Mayweather's list of opponents.

He even suggested Mayweather is returning to the ring because he might be broke.

"Floyd, quit running. Stop running. Stop saying that, oh, you know, I'm not a pay-per-view attraction, or this or that," Mosley said in a recent television interview. "I've been fighting longer than you. I've been making money longer than you. That's probably why you're coming back to the sport right now is because you need money, you lost your money, now you had to come back and get some more money.

"We can make money together, alright? So let's do it," he added.

Mayweather has said he will fight all top opponents during his return.

His adviser, Leonard Ellerbe, told ESPN.com last week that a matchup with Mosley is possible in the future.

"We can't fight him right now, but he's one of the top fighters," Ellbere said. "We recognize he's one of the top fighters. He can get it, too." read more
