Andre Berto vs Shane Mosley Canceled

Saturday |

This is the latest on Andre Berto vs Shane Mosley boxing fight. Sad to say it is canceled.

It is Andre Berto who withdrew from the fight definitely not because he is a coward. He is a family man and that should be his priority. Due to the quake that struck Haiti, many people have suffered and that includes the family of Andre Berto.

To be specific, here is Andre Berto's statement, "Since the 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti on Tuesday evening, I have been focusing on my family and the Haitian people who are facing an inconceivable battle for survival while still trying to continue to prepare for an opportunity I have dreamt of since childhood," Berto said in a statement. "I lost several family members to the earthquake and, after two days without word, was relieved to learn that my sister, Naomi, and her daughter, Jessica, survived, but were left homeless. I have seen the pain in my parents' eyes as they attempt to understand what has happened to our homeland and recognize a place they once called home.

"As a result of this disaster, I am mentally and physically exhausted and, therefore, I have no choice but to withdraw from my bout on January 30.
"

Due to this circumstance, Shane Mosley vs Floyd Mayweather Jr is on.
