# Shane Mosley vs. Sergio Mora

Shane Mosley vs. Sergio Mora, billed as 200: Celebrate and Dominate, was a professional boxing match contested on September 18, 2010.

## Background

On 30 June 2010, it was announced Shane Mosley would fight former WBC light middleweight champion Sergio Mora at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on September 18 at light middleweight, only a few months after his wide decision loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr.. An official press conference took place at the end of August. The card was billed as a celebration of the bicentennial of Mexican Independence Day.
Mora would weight in at 157 lbs, three pounds over the light middleweight division limit, so as a result he was forced to give 20% of his purse to Mosley.

Speaking afterwards Baldomir said "It's true that he hits hard. He hits really hard. His power really surprised me. This kid is the real deal. And he's going to be a champion. No one has hit me like he hit me before. He knocked me out me and nobody (except one man) has ever knocked me out."
