Former World Boxing Champ Saves Baby From Car Wreck

You know the old adage that professional athletes are considered by many people to be heroes and role models?

Well, boxing champion “Sugar” Shane Mosley just gave that notion a dose of credibility.

On Sunday night (May 1, 2016) Mosley was moseying (couldn’t help myself) down the 405 in Los Angeles with his family in tow, when they witnessed firsthand a massive four car pileup just feet away from their own vehicle.

Luckily for the unconscious man who Mosley spotted in one of the cars involved, “Sugar Shane” had very sharply honed his reactionary instincts over his 20-plus year, three-division world title-winning career, and sprinted immediately over to the man’s severely damaged vehicle.

Noticing that a baby was trapped in a car seat, Mosley sprung to action, carefully removing the baby from the wreck and waiting for paramedics to arrive on the scene and escort them to the hospital:

“You don’t know if the car is going to catch fire, what’s going to happen, then seeing there’s a baby in therehe [the baby] was crying and bleeding, his neck was bruised.”

Mosley and his girlfriend then followed the man and his baby to a nearby hospital to make sure that everything was OK, and thankfully all was well, save for a few minor injuries.

“He [the father] was crying and saying, ‘you guys are like an angel, and thank you for helping me. And being there for me and protecting my son’”.

Then, staying true to his reputation as one of the true class acts in boxing, “Sugar” gave the man two tickets to his upcoming May 28 fight against David Avanesyan in Arizona; a fairytale ending to a nightmare situation.

Jeff Mayweather, the uncle of IBO, WBC, IBA, IBF and IBO Welterweight World champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. says that he’s confident that his nephew will finally face longtime nemesis and WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao some time in 2013.

“I think [Floyd] will be fighting another couple of years,” he told Fighthype.com. “I think that’s being realistic because I think the [best] fight that’s out there will take that long to materialize.”

Jeff Mayweather, the uncle of IBO, WBC, IBA, IBF and IBO Welterweight World champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. says that he’s confident that his nephew will finally face longtime nemesis and WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao some time in 2013.

“I think [Floyd] will be fighting another couple of years,” he told Fighthype.com. “I think that’s being realistic because I think the [best] fight that’s out there will take that long to materialize.”

Mayweather shelved the proposed bout last year when he called for weekly Olympic-style drug testing for Pacquiao after insisting the Filipino fighter was on steroids in the “Mayweather After Dark” video above. He hasn’t fought since defeating Shane Mosley in May 2010 and is set to fight WBC Welterweight Champion Victor Ortiz on September 17, 2011.

According to his uncle, Ortiz won’t pose much of a challenge for Floyd, which is why the fight with Pacquiao — a bout many boxing analysts believe will breathe some life into the slumping sport — needs to happen.

“I think Victor Ortiz is a beast, but I think Victor Ortiz is going to be taken to school like he’s never been taken to school before in his life. I mean, Floyd has already fought Victor Ortiz. He fought him when he fought Ricky Hatton, and Ricky was a better version of Ortiz. I think that Ortiz is a guy who is caught up in the fact that he’s coming off of his biggest win, and of course he’s riding the wave, but the reality of it is this, Victor Ortiz has never faced anyone who is remotely close to having Floyd’s ability,” he said. “He’s going to be taken to school, drowned in the deep water and get himself knocked out. He’s too smart for him; he can stand right in front of Victor Ortiz and do whatever he wants to do to him.”

According to Pacquiao’s promoter Bob Arum, “Pac-Man” will be tied up for the remainder of the year preparing for a fight in November with either Juan Manuel Marquez, Zab Judah or Timothy Bradley.

Shane MosleyCount Shane Mosley as one boxer who would love to give mixed martial arts a try.

During a live chat with FanHouse readers, Mosley was asked whether he’d ever follow in the footsteps of James Toney, who lost to Randy Couture last month at UFC 118, and test himself in MMA. Mosley said the idea interests him, but that he would need to take a long time training in wrestling and jiu jitsu to avoid being embarrassed the way Toney was, and he just doesn’t have that kind of time as he continues to focus on his boxing career.
