He just doesnt seem to have the speed, power, and overall explosiveness that he had 3 years ago or so.
i know there are still some money fights out there for him, and he will stick around and collect some paychecks, but it sure doesnt look like we will see any more sugar from shane.

He was a Balco client. He passed a polygraph saying he didn't use steroids. He also passed Nevada drug test after the DLH fight (although that test would likely not have picked up the Balco steroid).
I would give him the benefit of the doubt. You don't see Barry taking a polygraph.
What do you mean that Mosley is not a known juicer? He was called to testify before the Balco grand jury just like Bonds, Giambi, etc., of course he was a juicer.
Mosley is not washed up . . . he just has problems with taller skilled fighters who can keep him at bay with an effective jab. Forrest and now Wright have exposed him. He shouldn't try to move up in weight and should focus on smaller guys.
nothing wrong with fighting guys your size . . . Roy Jones picks and chooses his opponents but he's not washed up . . . if he'd have fought that heavyweight matchup against Lewis instead of Ruiz he would have been demolished . . . Mosley would still be a dominating fighter at the right weight class. He's just not a big enough guy to fight the Trinidads etc....
