Shane Mosley admits to EPO use on video

In current times, nothing can be more damning than video.

Recently, on YouTube, a video was leaked by user buzzebra of Shane Mosley's October, 2009 depostition where the legendary boxer admits to using the performance enhancing drug EPO (erythropoietin) in relation to his second victory over Oscar De La Hoya in 2003.

This may not be breaking news, as it has long be known that Mosley used PEDS under the guidance of Victor Conte, but to watch Mosley - a fighter beloved by many - admit his guilt on video, is a stab to his image and credibility no written work could inflict.

    This is why I ask for the Olympic-style blood tests. People like Shane stain the sport I love, so I'm doing this for boxing to prove we're a clean set of athletes. PEDs have been around for a while now, which is why I asked to conduct the same test on Judah, Hatton, Baldomir, De La Hoya and all my opponents-because I have always cared about keeping my sport PED-free. Like I've said, Pacquiao is a one-dimensional fighter that I can beat easily. So why do I bother to ask for a blood test if he's such an easy opponent? Because I want to keep my sport clean, and Pacquiao shouldn't be complaining because I've asked of this from all my other opponents. And what is he scared of? Didn't he see last week's 24/7? They only took droplets of blood from Shane. Droplets! Just disregard that Shane looked like he was getting sleepy after the last blood draw he underwent. He just needed a nap. Pac fighting Margarito? So?? I made Margarito, Cotto & Clottey bow down to me after I CRUSHED Hoya & Hatton!

    This is again one of the millionth lies of mayweather, moron. Judah, hatton, baldomer de la joya did not undergone olympic randum drug testing. It is only mosley, the certified PED user who admitted using it, who bows down to the dectate of floyed after floyed was not able to muster his demand to pacman. If it is true that he did not singled out pacman, why all their undercard on May 1 were not required by him to have this nonesense randum drug testing? Because it's the only way for him to duck the best boxer of the dacade who will reduce him to pieces and make a total of seven (7) losses of him carrier. (Contrary to his claim of 0 loss, floyed lost already 6 times during his amature days including his lost in the Olympic).

    Why it's only now you are dictating that kind of testing when you are facing a though opponent? why you did not insist it when you are going to fight delahoya and hatton? Is this your diversionary dirty tactic to avoid manny?

    Mosley has maintained that he never knowingly took EPO. This video does nothing to contradict that.

    is this why mosley has already been tested at least 4 times, and nothing about mayweather except for the they've showed on 24/7?

    he chosed USADA because he's been dealing with the for along while. now tell me, is it really fair to a have random testing when the other fighter is being tested way even more? the number of test should be the same. only the days of testing that should be random.

    I’ve always cared about keeping the sport clean. It’s better for the fighters, and it’s definitely better for the fans. And I do what I do for my fans. It’s not all about me, and I acknowledge that I would where I am now without them. Pacquiao is garbage. He’s been knocked out and defeated, and I’ve never been defeated during my pro AND amateur careers. Like Uncle Roger says, Pacquiao uses the same Meth the Philippines used 500 years ago during the war against the US. I don’t care if the Philippines wasn’t even discovered 500 years ago, nor do I care that guns didn’t even exist – Uncle is always right! Look at Bobby Pacquiao. He is undefeated because of that same Meth. When I fight, it’s like the Superbowl, because I am the most exciting fighter on the planet in the history of mankind. Remember when I said that Shane Mosley is not a PPV attraction? I still think that, but I’m fighting him because he’s so desperate!
