Mosley Denies De La Hoya Rumors!

Says He's Moving Down In Weight!

As Boxingtalk.com first reported two days ago, rumors were running rampant throughout the boxing industry that former three division champion, "Sugar" Shane Mosley could be signing with Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions. Mosley returned Boxingtalk's call last night to inform us that the rumors had no truth to them. "We haven't received any offers from Golden Boy Promotions, so any rumors that I'm signing with Oscar De La Hoya are false. Right now I'm spending time with family and getting ready for the Holiday's. When time comes we're going to see what's out there for us, "said Mosley, who also informed us that he and his wife Jin  bumped into Oscar De La Hoya and Richard Schaefer at Marco Antonio Barrera's after party but assured BT that "absolutely no business was discussed." Mosley didn't really want to discuss his promotional options and free agent status last night, "but when the time comes Greg, Boxingtalk will have it first." Oh yeah, Mosley said he's probably moving down to "around 150 pounds to look for some right handed fighters." Boxingtalk.com will continue to keep you updated, until then, remember where you heard it first!
