Boxing champ Sugar Shane Mosley seems to be using more than sugar on his Cheerios...perhaps some EPO. Mosley's trainer, and Mosley's PED dealers BALCO ace Victor Conte attest to Mosley's EPO use before a title fight. San Jose Mercury:
Boxer Sugar Shane Mosley's former trainer and the mastermind behind a sports doping ring claimed in court papers filed Friday that they watched Mosley inject the endurance-boosting drug EPO in the weeks before a title bout.
Trainer Derryl Hudson and convicted steroids dealer Victor Conte said they both saw Mosley take EPO during a meeting in which Mosley was told the benefits and risks of performance-enhancing drugs and how to use them.
The meeting, they said, took place weeks before Mosley beat Oscar De La Hoya in a junior middleweight title bout in September 2003.
"Mr. Mosley admitted to me that he knew the drugs provided to him by Mr. Conte were illegal performance-enhancing drugs," Hudson said, according to the papers.
Mosley's lawyer didn't return a telephone call by the Associated Press.
