Shane Mosley Jr. calls for fight with middleweight champion after beating Daniel Jacobs

"The plan was to pick him apart because we knew he'd get tired,” said Mosley Jr. “I was trying to press him in the middle rounds, but he's a veteran and he knows how to get through it.”

The son of Hall of Famer “Sugar” Shane Mosley, Mosley Jr. scored the best win of his career by out-landing Jacobs 108 to 83, earning him his fifth-straight victory. Returning from an extended layoff, Jacobs wasn’t able to keep his charging opponent off of him with any sustained offense of his own.

"I'm proud of myself,” said Mosley Jr. “Danny has bricks in his hands, but I just stuck to the game plan and got the job done.”

"He was definitely the busier fighter, but I could see that every time I hit him with a good shot I did see that he was stunned,” said Jacobs. “I just didn't do enough to get my hand raised in the end.”

Jacobs put up a strong effort in the final round, landing his best blows of the fight, but was met again and again with return fire from the determined Mosley. At the end of the showdown, Mosley was victorious by scores of 100-90 and 99-92 twice.

"I felt like I had a good mindset in there, I just wasn't 100% with all the time out of the ring,” said Jacobs. “The weight was obviously an issue for me and I came in a little drained and dehydrated. I could have gone against light opposition, but I'm a dog and I wanted to face a certain caliber of opponent.”

In his post-fight interview, Mosley offered a direct challenge to WBA middleweight world champion Erislandy Lara.

"I want Erislandy Lara,” said Mosley Jr. “If you're listening, I want you. Let's go, baby."
