On Tuesday morning, Fight Sports Examiner was informed by a representative of the Nevada State Athletic Commission that Shane Mosley was suspended until June 22nd. By Tuesday afternoon, Fight Sports Examiner received further clarification on Mosley's suspension from the Executive Director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission Keith Kizer. According to Mr. Kizer, Mosley was suspended for precautionary reasons due to the minor injuries he sustained in the fight with Pacquiao on Saturday May 7th.

Mr. Kizer also shared some details on the drug testing. Although the results aren't "in yet", both Manny Pacquiao and Shane Mosley were tested the night of the fight and there are no indications or expectations of any problems with their results. The tests should be back within the next week or two.

Manny Pacquiao defeated Shane Mosley via Unanimous Decision in their WBO welterweight championship fight live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Pacquiao retained the title as Mosley failed to win a single round on 2 of the judge's scorecards (119-108, 120-108, 120-107).

It's unclear as to what Mosley's next move will be. Many boxing pundits are calling for his retirement after his performance against Pacquiao. However, Mosley's camp has given no indications on retiring. As for Pacquiao he's expected to fight again in November against either Juan Manuel Marquez or Timothy Bradley.
