Shane Mosley Vs Antonio Margarito Controversy
Before the start of the Shane Mosley vs Antonio Margarito WBA Super World Welterweight Title fight, Mosley and his trainer Nazim Richardson noticed a white plaster hidden in the wrapped hands of Margarito. Richardson insists that Margarito’s hands needs to be checked. They found out it was a plaster of Paris, similar in creating cast. They have it removed because it is prohibited in boxing.

Steroids Use
Mosley used performance-enhancing drugs by BALCO Labs. He start using it prior to the 2003-09-13 Oscar De La Hoya fight. Mosley said that he is unaware that there are steroids on the performance-enhancing drugs
Jeff Novitzky, a lead investigator on the BALCO case, reported that documents seized from the lab show that Mosley received "the clear" and "the cream", both designer steroids. Mosley reportedly began his doping regimen prior to his 2003 bout with Oscar De La Hoya, a match that he won due in part to his strong performance in the later rounds of the fight.
But, Victor Conte, the founder of BALCO, told the Los Angeles Times that Shane Mosley knew "exactly and precisely what he was doing" when he utilized BALCO's services. Mosley maintains that he believed the products he was using from BALCO were legal vitamins and is suing Conte for libel.
In May 2008, Mosley's former trainer, Derryl Hudson, supported Conte's allegations against Mosley. In a declaration that was used in Conte's motion to have the lawsuit dismissed, Hudson wrote, "I know that Mr. Mosley was aware that the performance-enhancing drugs provided to him by Mr. Conte were banned drugs because I discussed that fact with Mr. Mosley both during and after our visit to BALCO",
In 2003, Mosley told a grand jury that he injected himself with the doping agent EPO as he prepared for a fight against Oscar De La Hoya, according to court transcripts and doping calendars reviewed by the New York Daily News. The transcript of the boxer's testimony was part of a BALCO file that was under a protective order before U.S. District Court Judge Susan Illston decided in November 2008 to allow prosecutors to share thousands of documents with Barry Bonds lawyers.
In April 2010, Conte released portions of an October 2009 video deposition, in which Mosley admits to knowingly using the banned endurance booster EPO. After viewing the video, Mosley's attorney, Judd Burstein, said the comments were "taken out of context,", however, he added that Mosley had "always admitted to knowingly using EPO,", a statement which seemingly contradicted Mosley's prior public claim that Conte had misled him about the legality of the products provided by BALCO. In November 2010, Mosley dropped his defamation lawsuit against Conte.
