His pro boxing record ended with a score of 61-49-10.
And Mosley became multiple world champion in three divisions – lightweight, welterweight and light-middleweight.
Mosley’s stock was so high that he won multiple ‘Fighter of the Year’ awards, while he was also crowned the world’s best pounder-for-pound boxer three times.
During Mosley’s career, he defeated the likes of Ricardo Mayorga and Oscar De La Hoya.
But a string of losses towards the end of his career, including to Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao and Canelo Alvarez, led him to step away from boxing eight years ago.
However, Mosley is stepping back into the ring tomorrow night as part of the ‘Celebrity Boxing’ circuit.

One said: “Please don’t fight, Shane. You have nothing left to prove.”
Another said: “This isn’t boxing, this is sad.”
Speaking about his fight with Mosley, opponent Koffroth said: “I think my situation is almost like the Rocky story.
“I came from nothing. Many people don’t know anything about me, I got a huge opportunity.
“I grew up watching him and I know a little bit about him. I’ll keep everything else for myself.
“I love boxing, I feel like a true boxer and fighter, and I want to go one-on-one with someone who has done it the best.”
