Mosley made his professional debut in February 1993 at the Hollywood Palladium in California, knocking out opponent Greg Puente in the fifth round. He proceeded to win his following six games. Mosley’s success continued in 1994 when he won all nine fights. Mosley was unbeaten in 23 fights by May 1997.
In the summer of 1997, Mosley competed for his first world title, the IBF lightweight belt. He faced Philip Holiday, who was defending his title for the sixth time. Mosley eventually won the battle after 12 rounds, seizing Holiday’s title by unanimous decision. Mosley successfully defended his championship against Manuel Gomez, John John Molina, Jesse James Leija, and Golden Johnson. Mosley faced John Brown in April 1999 for his eighth and last defense of the title.
Mosley vacated his lightweight belt and went up to welterweight in late 1999. After knocking out Wilfredo Rivera and Willy Wise, he faced Oscar De La Hoya for the WBC welterweight belt in 2000. Mosley won on a split decision after 12 rounds, and he went on to defend his championship against Antonio Diaz and Adrian Stone before losing to Vernon Forrest in early 2002.
Mosley returned to the welterweight category in 2007. In August, he faced undefeated Miguel Cotto for the WBA welterweight belt but lost.
Mosley reclaimed welterweight star status in 2009 when he defeated Antonio Margarito by TKO. The following year, Mosley faced up against the undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr., losing by a large margin.
