The tipster sent the USADA a syringe filled with the steroid. The tipster was later identified as Trevor Graham, the former coach of track and field stars Tim Montgomery and Marion Jones.<br /> <br /> BALCO offices were raided by agents of the Internal Revenue Service and a San Mateo County narcotics task force in September 2003. The following month, the USADA announced it had uncovered a doping conspiracy involving previously undetectable steroids, and a grand jury investigation into BALCO began. Dozens of high profile athletes were subpoenaed to testify during the investigation, including Shane Mosley. Their testimony was confidential, but it was eventually leaked.<br /> <br /> In September 2007, SI.com reported that lead BALCO investigator Jeff Novitzky told an international anti-doping conference that Mosley used the BALCO designer steroids before his September 2003 fight against Oscar De La Hoya. <br /> <br /> Mosley said his former strength and conditioning coach, Darryl Hudson, convinced him to visit BALCO, and he only agreed to visit the lab to obtain legal supplements. "I was already feeling good, but I think Darryl wanted to make a big impression, for me to go out there and be really explosive," Mosley said. "We went to San Francisco for one day and I talked to Victor Conte. I explained to him that I am already in great shape, but the right vitamins and supplements here and there might help."<br /> <br /> Mosley said he gave Victor Conte a blood sample so he could figure out what supplements would be best for him. Mosley, however, said he told Conte and Hudson that he wanted to "make sure everything is OK, so let's call the Nevada [athletic] commission to make sure there are no problems. They called the commission, found out what was legal and what was illegal, and from there they did the program. ... And then, after I fought, I took my [drug test, which were clean] and I thought everything was alright. Everything to my knowledge was on the up and up."<br /> <br /> Mosley said he paid Conte $1,500 with a personal check, which shows that he wasn't trying to hide anything. And then, for about four weeks late in his training camp, he used the program Conte prescribed for him, which he later learned included undetectable steroids "the cream" and "the clear," in addition to the blood-doping drug Erythropoietin, commonly known as EPO, a hormone that artificially increases red blood cell production.<br /> <br /> "I didn't know anything about that stuff," Mosley said. "It was something given to me, pushed up on me. I'm a health freak-type of guy. ... When I heard they were investigating the guy [Conte], was like, 'Oh my God, what's going on here?' I feel used and abused. This guy is doing this crazy stuff. That's the only time I ever touched the thing."<br /> <br /> Mosley said he doesn't even believe it helped him, citing the fact that so many people believed that De La Hoya deserved the decision in the fight. "If that stuff is supposed to help, it didn't do nothing," he said. "It hurt me. It was a close fight and I got the decision." Mosley said when he fought De La Hoya the first time, in June 2000, he hadn't used anything and won more easily. "So, to me, it really hurt me a little bit," Mosley said.<br /> <br /> On December 3, 2008, [[Richard Schaefer]], the CEO of De La Hoya's promotional company, [[Golden Boy Promotions]], asked the executive director of the [[Nevada State Athletic Commission]], [[Keith Kizer]], if there were any grounds to overturn the decision from the second Mosley-De La Hoya fight, and Kizer told him the commission didn't have the right to overturn decisions because of the use of performance-enhancing drugs until 2005. <br /> <br /> Mosley sued Conte for $12 million in 2008, accusing him of lying when he repeatedly said Mosley knowingly took illegal performance-enhancing drugs. The case was dismissed in 2010. According to a document filed in New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan, the case was "voluntarily dismissed with prejudice and without costs, disbursements or attorney's fees to any party against another."<br /> <br /> ==External Links==<br /> *[http://www.reocities.com/pedrinet/mosley.html Amateur Record]<br /> *[http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=3040835 "Report: Mosley allegedly used designer steroids for '03 De La Hoya fight" ESPN.com, September 28, 2007]<br /> *[http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=3041449 "Mosley admits he unknowingly took BALCO steroids" ESPN.com, September 29, 2007]<br /> *[http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more-sports/oscar-de-la-hoya-sue-ko-sugar-shane-mosley-03-victory-article-1.354176 "Oscar De La Hoya could sue to KO 'Sugar' Shane Mosley's '03 victory" ''New York Daily News'', December 6, 2008]<br /> *[http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=5815425 "Shane Mosley defamation suit dismissed" ESPN.com, November 17, 2010]<br /> <br /> {{start box}}<br /> {{succession box|<br /> before=[[Philip Holiday]]|<br /> title=[[IBF Lightweight Champion]]|<br /> after=[[Paul Spadafora]]|<br /> years=1997 Aug 2 &ndash; 1999 Apr<br>'''Vacated'''<br /> }}<br /> {{succession box|<br /> before=[[Oscar De La Hoya]]|<br /> title=[[WBC Welterweight Champion]]|<br /> after=[[Vernon Forrest]]|<br /> years=2000 Jun 17 &ndash; 2002 Jan 26<br /> }}<br /> {{succession box|<br /> before=[[Oscar De La Hoya]]<br>Super Champion|<br /> title=[[WBA Light Middleweight Champion]]|<br /> after=[[Ronald (Winky) Wright]]<br>Super Champion|<br /> years=2003 Sep 13 &ndash; 2004 Mar 13<br>'''Super Champion'''<br /> }}<br /> {{succession box|<br /> before=[[Oscar De La Hoya]]|<br /> title=[[WBC Light Middleweight Champion]]|<br /> after=[[Ronald (Winky) Wright]]|<br /> years=2003 Sep 13 &ndash; 2004 Mar 13<br /> }}<br /> {{succession box|<br /> before=[[Antonio Margarito]]<br>Super Champion|<br /> title=[[WBA Welterweight Champion]]|<br /> after=&mdash;|<br /> years=2009 Jan 24 &ndash; 2010 May<br>'''Super Champion'''<br>'''Stripped'''<br /> }}<br /> {{end box}}<br /> <br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Mosley, Shane}}<br /> [[Category:African American Boxers]]<br /> [[Category:United States Amateur Champions]]<br /> [[Category:Diamond Belt Champions]]<br /> [[Category:World Lightweight Champions]]<br /> [[Category:World Welterweight Champions]]<br /> [[Category:World Light Middleweight Champions]]<br /> [[Category:Three Division World Champions]]<br /> [[Category:American World Champions]]<br /> [[Category:The Ring Magazine Champions]]</div>

He racked up 10 straight wins before getting his first title fight in November 2011 against Southern Area middleweight champion Gary Boulden. Saunders won the fight by a 10 round unanimous decision. 5 months later Saunders got his fight major title fight when he challenged Tony Hill for the vacant Commonwealth middleweight title at the Royal Albert Hall in London. He won the fight by TKO in round 1. Saunders defended his title twice, defeating former champion Bradley Pryce by UD12 & undefeated (12-0) former Olympian Jarrod Fletcher by TKO 2, before fighting for the vacant British middleweight title against English champion Nick Blackwell. Saunders won the fight, which doubled as a third Commonwealth title defence, by a competitive 12 round unanimous decision. <br /> <br /> Following a routing double title defence against experienced Matthew Hall Saunders faced what was arguably his toughest test to date against undefeated (16-0) Irishman Gary 'Spike' O'Sullivan who was highly ranked by the WBO. He won the fight by wide unanimous decision and picked up the vacant WBO International middleweight title and a high ranking with the WBO (World Boxing Organisation). Just 2 months later Saunders defended his British & Commonwealth titles against undefeated Matchroom fighter John Ryder (15-0). The fight headlined the first boxing event at the Copper Box Arena in London and Saunders won a very tight unanimous decision to retain his belts. <br /> <br /> Following the Ryder win Saunders did not fight for 10 months but returned in July 2014 against undefeated European Union champion Emanuele Blandamura (22-0) at the Phones 4u Arena in Manchester. The fight which was elevated to main event status following the collapse of the Tyson Fury - Dereck Chisora fight was sanctioned for the vacant European middleweight title. Saunders knocked out the Italian with a body shot in round 8 and was now the British, Commonwealth and European middleweight champion and he defended all three belts in his next fight against undefeated (18-0) Chris Eubank Jr, the son of former 2-Weight world champion Chris Eubank. The highly anticipated bout, in which Saunders was taking on his fourth straight undefeated opponent, took place in November 2014 at the ExCel Arena in London as chief support to the rescheduled Tyson Fury - Dereck Chisora rematch. It was also sanctioned as a final eliminator for the WBO World middleweight title which Saunders had the chance to fight for but turned down in order to face Eubank. Saunders started the fight well winning many of the early round but Eubank came on strong in the second half to make it extremely competitive. After 12 hard fought rounds Saunders edged a tight split points decision to retain his titles and book a shot at the WBO World middleweight title. The win also saw Saunders win the Lonsdale belt outright by defending the British title for a third time.<br /> <br /> Following the Eubank win Saunders was due to face Irish World Champion Andy Lee who had won the World title following Saunders decision to pass on a shot to face Eubank but he accepted step aside money from former champion Peter Quillin's camp to allow their fighter to face Lee first on the condition that the winner would defend against Saunders. During the build up to the Lee-Quillin fight Saunders was offered the chance to face Hassan N'Dam for the vacant IBF World middleweight title but he rejected it favour of waiting for his shot at the WBO title. Saunders was expected to face Lee in the Summer of 2015 for the title but as Lee was injured in his draw with Quillin he was allowed an extension. Saunders came close to fighting Eubank in a rematch but it failed to materialise as Eubank was not willing to give up the interim WBA belt which he had won following the Saunders defeat.

He racked up 10 straight wins before getting his first title fight in November 2011 against Southern Area middleweight champion Gary Boulden. Saunders won the fight by a 10 round unanimous decision. 5 months later Saunders got his fight major title fight when he challenged Tony Hill for the vacant Commonwealth middleweight title at the Royal Albert Hall in London. He won the fight by TKO in round 1. Saunders defended his title twice, defeating former champion Bradley Pryce by UD12 & undefeated (12-0) former Olympian Jarrod Fletcher by TKO 2, before fighting for the vacant British middleweight title against English champion Nick Blackwell. Saunders won the fight, which doubled as a third Commonwealth title defence, by a competitive 12 round unanimous decision. <br /> <br /> Following a routing double title defence against experienced Matthew Hall Saunders faced what was arguably his toughest test to date against undefeated (16-0) Irishman Gary 'Spike' O'Sullivan who was highly ranked by the WBO. He won the fight by wide unanimous decision and picked up the vacant WBO International middleweight title and a high ranking with the WBO (World Boxing Organisation). Just 2 months later Saunders defended his British & Commonwealth titles against undefeated Matchroom fighter John Ryder (15-0). The fight headlined the first boxing event at the Copper Box Arena in London and Saunders won a very tight unanimous decision to retain his belts. <br /> <br /> Following the Ryder win Saunders did not fight for 10 months but returned in July 2014 against undefeated European Union champion Emanuele Blandamura (22-0) at the Phones 4u Arena in Manchester. The fight which was elevated to main event status following the collapse of the Tyson Fury - Dereck Chisora fight was sanctioned for the vacant European middleweight title. Saunders knocked out the Italian with a body shot in round 8 and was now the British, Commonwealth and European middleweight champion and he defended all three belts in his next fight against undefeated (18-0) Chris Eubank Jr, the son of former 2-Weight world champion Chris Eubank. The highly anticipated bout, in which Saunders was taking on his fourth straight undefeated opponent, took place in November 2014 at the ExCel Arena in London as chief support to the rescheduled Tyson Fury - Dereck Chisora rematch. It was also sanctioned as a final eliminator for the WBO World middleweight title which Saunders had the chance to fight for but turned down in order to face Eubank. Saunders started the fight well winning many of the early round but Eubank came on strong in the second half to make it extremely competitive. After 12 hard fought rounds Saunders edged a tight split points decision to retain his titles and book a shot at the WBO World middleweight title. The win also saw Saunders win the Lonsdale belt outright by defending the British title for a third time.<br /> <br /> Following the Eubank win Saunders was due to face Irish World Champion Andy Lee who had won the World title following Saunders decision to pass on a shot to face Eubank but he accepted step aside money from former champion Peter Quillin's camp to allow their fighter to face Lee first on the condition that the winner would defend against Saunders. During the build up to the Lee-Quillin fight Saunders was offered the chance to face Hassan N'Dam for the vacant IBF World middleweight title but he rejected it favour of waiting for his shot at the WBO title. Saunders was expected to face Lee in the Summer of 2015 for the title but as Lee was injured in his draw with Quillin he was allowed an extension. Saunders came close to fighting Eubank in a rematch but it failed to materialise as Eubank was not willing to give up the interim WBA belt which he had won following the Saunders defeat. Saunders will fight in Manchester in July and is expected to face Lee for the title later in the year when the Irishman has recovered.</div>

Originally from Cheshunt, '''Billy Joe Saunders''' is the great-grandson of one of Britain's most famous gypsy bare-knuckle champions, Absolom Beeney. His father, Tom, a former amateur, also admits to being involved in a bare-knuckle scrap once "to sort things out, the way the travelling community does."<br /> <br /> The southpaw won his first 49 amateur fights at senior level in a row winning the Commonwealth Championships 2007 and the Strandya Cup 2008 edging out Cuban [[Carlos Banteaux]].<br /> <br /> In 2008 Saunders qualified for the Beijing Olympics in the Welterweight division at the age of 18. Saunders qualified at the Euopean area qualifier in Pescara, Italy. He beat European champion [[Andrey Balanov]] and [[Kakhaber Zhvania]], he lost his semi to [[Oleksandr Stretskyy]] before beating the Slovakian, [[Pavol Hlavacka]] for the all-important third spot.

He racked up 10 straight wins before getting his first title fight in November 2011 against Southern Area middleweight champion Gary Boulden. Saunders won the fight by a 10 round unanimous decision. 5 months later Saunders got his fight major title fight when he challenged Tony Hill for the vacant Commonwealth middleweight title at the Royal Albert Hall in London. He won the fight by TKO in round 1. Saunders defended his title twice, defeating former champion Bradley Pryce by UD12 & undefeated (12-0) former Olympian Jarrod Fletcher by TKO 2, before fighting for the vacant British middleweight title against English champion Nick Blackwell. Saunders won the fight, which doubled as a third Commonwealth title defence, by a competitive 12 round unanimous decision. <br /> <br /> Following a routing double title defence against experienced Matthew Hall Saunders faced what was arguably his toughest test to date against undefeated (16-0) Irishman Gary 'Spike' O'Sullivan who was highly ranked by the WBO. He won the fight by wide unanimous decision and picked up the vacant WBO International middleweight title and a high ranking with the WBO (World Boxing Organisation). Just 2 months later Saunders defended his British & Commonwealth titles against undefeated Matchroom fighter John Ryder (15-0). The fight headlined the first boxing event at the Copper Box Arena in London and Saunders won a very tight unanimous decision to retain his belts. <br /> <br /> Following the Ryder win Saunders did not fight for 10 months but returned in July 2014 against undefeated European Union champion Emanuele Blandamura (22-0) at the Phones 4u Arena in Manchester. The fight which was elevated to main event status following the collapse of the Tyson Fury - Dereck Chisora fight was sanctioned for the vacant European middleweight title. Saunders knocked out the Italian with a body shot in round 8. Saunders was now the British, Commonwealth and European middleweight champion and he defended all three belts in his next fight against undefeated (18-0) Chris Eubank Jr, the son of 2-Weight world champion Chris Eubank. The highly anticipated bout, in which Saunders was taking on his fourth straight undefeated opponent, took place in November 2014 at the ExCel Arena in London as chief support to the rescheduled Tyson Fury - Dereck Chisora rematch. It was also sanctioned as a final eliminator for the WBO World middleweight title which Saunders had the chance to fight for but turned down in order to face Eubank. In the highly anticipated fight Saunders started very well winning many of the early round but Eubank came on strong in the second half to make it extremely competitive. After 12 hard fought rounds Saunders edged a tight split points decision to retain his titles and book a shot at the WBO World middleweight title. The win also saw Saunders win the Lonsdale belt outright by defending the British title for a third time.<br /> <br /> Following the Eubank win Saunders was due to face Irish World Champion Andy Lee who had won the World title following Saunders decision to pass on a shot to face Eubank but he accepted step aside money from former champion Peter Quillin's camp to allow their fighter to face Lee first on the condition the condition that the winner would defend against Saunders. During the build up to the Lee-Quillin fight Saunders was offered the chance to face Hassan N'Dam for the vacant IBF World middleweight title but he rejected it favour of waiting for his shot at the WBO title. Saunders was expected to face Lee in the Summer of 2015 for the title but as Lee was injured in his draw with Quillin he was allowed an extension. Saunders will fight in Manchester in July and is expected to face Lee for the title later in the year when the Irishman has recovered.</div>

The young fighter, now fighting in the junior lightweight division, went through 1983 and 1984 undefeated, finishing 1984 by winning the Commonwealth title from Zambian, [[John Sichula]]. <br /> <br /> His rapid progress reached a peak on February 15, 1985 in Melbourne when he challenged the Korean, [[Hwan-Kil Yuh]], for the [[IBF]] junior lightweight title. After 15 gruelling rounds, Lester Ellis was the new world champion. <br /> <br /> However boxing can be a fickle sport, and his meteoric rise up the ranks was equally rapid on the way down. Just five months later, Lester Ellis, after one successful title defense against [[Rod Sequenan]], lost the world crown to another Victorian, [[Barry Michael]].
