He won’t reach his dads level.... If he’s good enough, Denzil will get him chances through Dennis Hobson or Mark Bateson. You’d have thought he’d have more chances in Manchester. I’ll know more after speaking to people on Friday.
He needs a run of fights. He had those three with Barrett in 2015 then time off before a couple with Lindemann. A stable training team, some ring time and a few fights, and it will be easier to gauge what he can do.
He’s on the Hobson show early October, as well.
I might try to pop along to that one. I'm hoping to get a few more shows in this year one way or another.

It's early on in his Pro career yet, but it's not looking like Shane Mosley Jr. will be able to come anywhere near his Father's achievements.

Salido damn sure never had a winning streak that long, but your point is well taken.

did I write that. He lost to Roman Martinez like 3 yeara ago. I think I was going along the lines that he became a major world title contender and gave some realy good opponents hard fights.

Yeah I got ya. "Guys can turn it around in spite of losses" was the gist of it. They can certainly. Didn't Mosley Jr. not have a lot of amateur fights? Or am I thinking of some other kids son? I know Chavez Jr. had zero, but it didn't seem like Shane Jr. had many either.
