golden boy get's a shoe shine........ LAS VEGAS (AP) -- -- Sugar Shane Mosley was even sweeter the second time around.Mosley came on in the late rounds again Saturday night to beat Oscar De La Hoya for the second time in three years, winning a close but unanimous decision to take the WBC and WBA 154-pound (69.3-kilogram) titles. In a fight almost as close as the first one, Mosley was the busier and faster fighter, beating De La Hoya to the punch and staying away from the left hook that De La Hoya used to knock out his last two opponents

The FBI raided the Las Vegas offices of Bob Arum Tuesday night, apparently as part of an investigation into the boxing promoter's business practices, and the New York Daily News reported Friday that those practices could include fixing the disputed Oscar De La Hoya-Sugar Shane Mosley II fight.
According to the Daily News, the 20-month investigation also involves New York City police and includes allegations that Top Rank, Arum's company, and some of its fighters schemed to throw fights.
The newspaper reports that law enforcement sources indicate that evidence has been found suggesting that the De La Hoya-Mosley fight in September may have been rigged. Mosley won a unanimous decision but De La Hoya cried foul, demanding an investigation into the three judges' scorecards.
The rigging apparently would involve tampering with the scales to allow boxers of different weight classes to fight each other, according to the paper, and the forging of medical documents.
In this case, De La Hoya, a Top Rank fighter, would have actually been heavier than announced and had a weight advantage that was supposed to translate into a victory and a lucrative third match with Mosley. Nevertheless, a third match is still likely.
Meanwhile, according to Friday's Los Angeles Times, none of the key figures in that match has been questioned.
