“SUGAR” SHANE MOSLEY’S WIFE FILES FOR DIVORCE; WANTS CUSTODY OF KIDS
Jin Mosley, the wife of Boxing champion Sugar Shane Mosley, has filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences. The couple married in November 2002 and separated in January of this year. According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline , Jin Mosley is seeking sole custody of the couple’s three children, two boys ages 7 and 6 and a 5-year-old daughter. She is also seeking spousal support and requests that the boxer be granted visitation.
Jin was Shane’s boxing manager for years and recently spoke to DogHouseBoxing about the divorce:
DogHouse: What things have you heard or read about your private life that are totally untrue?
Jin Mosley: I have heard all kinds of rumors. Some funny, most ridiculous. People have a very demented view of who I am because I am blunt and don’t take any shit but my inner circle knows who I am and that’s what matters to me. One rumor I would like to clear up is that I filed for divorce; not him. I also did not hire a lawyer. I refuse to put myself or my children through the agonizing drawn out bitter trial. We brought in a mediator. We sat for six hours and everything was done. I walked away from a lot and didn’t fight him for anything except that my children be supervised while at his parents’ or sister’s house. I left it in the hands of the judge and let him decide what I was entitled to or not; contrary to what people think. The mediators and judge said this was the easiest divorce they had done in 30 years. People criticize me for doing this during (Shane’s) training camp but my whole life has revolved around fights or training camp and I wanted it to be done with ASAP. Truth be told, had I waited an extra week, which many people begged me to do, I would have been entitled to half of the Margarito purse. But this has never been about money with me and anyone that personally knows me will vouch for this. People think I am at home shopping all day. I worked hard for our life and never was one to overspend or sit around all day.
DH: How hard are your children taking it and which are taking it the worst?
JM: My younger children don’t know what is going on. They now have a clue due to the fact that HBO aired it. They are not stupid but the good thing is that they are used to Shane being gone and this is not out of the norm for them. The older boys are saddened by it and I don’t think they really believe it yet. My daughter will probably take it the worst because she is obsessed with love and husbands and boyfriends. And she asks about him the most.
DH: Is there still a life for you in boxing?
JM: No. This was never a love of mine. I did it to help my ex-husband and our future. It would be too weird for me to still be involved.
Aww adorable kids. Smh another messed up situation.
She ain’t nothing but a gold-digger. LOL No I’m just playing.
I’m happy to hear from one of the mothers in one of these high profile divorces. She in no way represents all of the ex-wives or ex-girlfriends (and baby momma) of all celebrities, but she does show that not all of them are after money and using their kids to get it.
i like her…..gold diggers take notes.
what Destiny and ewok said, but I am curious why she wants the kids supervised when visiting his side of the family.
they are cuties.
The picture of the kids is too cute. I don’t understand why she’s talking like everybody knows her. I hope it all works out.
@ BCK I think yall will soon have to change the site to MCK Mixed celebrity kids. We cannot take away the kids white side and say only black.
If she wasn’t a NY golddigger her children would not be stairsteps, thats her security, she had no business being the manager
The kids are just adorable. Hopefully shane and jin can have a good relationship and remain friends for the kids.It’s all about the kids now.on that note shane I’m a big fan of yours I wish u the best.keep your head up. .
Once, I remember a reporter asking Sugar Shane Mosley if he would fight a certain fighter (Cotto/Williams I think) and Sugar Shane Mosley said he’d have to okay it with his wife; he would have to get her permission to do so. This is interesting in that his wife was his manager. It seems to me that Mosley’s wife had great influence in Mosley’s boxing career and that he and she agreed who he should fight. How did Jin Mosley become Shane Mosley’s manager? Shane Mosley had his father as a trainer. Why not have his father as the manager? Or Shane Mosley’s mother/sister as a manager, especially since Jin Mosley hinted that she was never interested in boxing? Some how Mosley’s boxing career has family ties as well as possible family strife. I remember that Mosley at one point replaced his father as his trainer. Was this Shane Mosley’s choice or Jin Mosley’s choice? And how did this situation influence the family as a whole? Maybe Jin Mosley wants Shane Mosley to retire and spend more time with the his children. She mentioned in the interview that Shane Mosley is always gone and the children hardly see him. Who knows? The children are cute. It’s quite interesting that Jin Mosely in her eloquent interview wants sole custody of the children. In many instances, the divorced have joint custody. And then to further follow it up, she states that she wants supervised visits when the couple’s children are at Mosley’s parents’ and sister’s homes. Why? Are Mosley’s parents and sister irresponsible? Would they put or leave the children in harm’s way? It’s clear that Jin Mosley has issues with his boxing career as well as with Shane Mosley’s side of the family.
WHITE SIDE, BLACK SIDE.. THE KIDS ARE STILL BLACK - THEY WILL HAVE THE SAME STRUGGLES LIKE ALL BLACK FOLKS! WE ALL GET OUR N*GG*R MOMENTS.. SOME MORE THAN OTHERS.. LMAO..
