LAS VEGAS -- Shane Mosley earned less than a third of what Oscar De La Hoya received when they fought last summer. He has other plans if they meet in a rematch.

"Fifty-fifty, I'm fine with that. I think I'm being more than fair," Mosley said. "I don't know if Oscar wants to fight me, but he needs to fight me. He needs to try to get his revenge."

Mosley earned $4.5 million to De La Hoya's $15 million when he beat De La Hoya last summer for the WBC welterweight crown.

An even split for a rematch could mean $10 million or more for each fighter. Cedric Kushner, Mosley's promoter, has offered De La Hoya $10 million for a fight in either November or December.

Kushner did not set a time limit for De La Hoya to decide, but he did say, "If it looks like Oscar is not going to accept it, Shane will go on to other business."

That could include bouts against IBF champion Vernon Forrest and WBA champ Andrew Lewis.

"There are two other champions out there and Shane wants to unify the title," Kushner said.

Mosley ran his record to 38-0, with 35 knockouts, when he stopped 20-1 underdog Adrian Stone of England in the third round of their title bout Saturday night.

Almost as soon as the fight ended, Mosley issued a challenge to De La Hoya, whom he beat with a 12-round decision at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

"I guess people want that, want to see me fight De La Hoya. If that's what the fans want, so be it," he said. "I was thinking about Vernon Forrest as my next fight, but that (De La Hoya) is much more lucrative."

Forrest beat Mosley in 1992 when both were amateurs -- the last time anyone has beaten the WBC champ.

"We're what the people want," Forrest said of the possibility of the two fighting again.

As in two previous title defenses, Mosley was overpowering in the victory over Stone.

After feeling his way in the first two rounds, Mosley stunned him with a powerful right, then sent the challenger crashing to the canvas with another right several seconds later to end their match before a crowd of 4,900 at the 5,100-seat Caesars Palace pavilion.

The end came at 2:01 of the third.

The 29-year-old Mosley, from Pomona, Calif., also stopped challengers Shannan Taylor, in the fifth round, and Antonio Diaz, in the sixth.

Stone, 30, a native of Bristol, England, who lives in Paterson, N.J., is 30-4-2, with 23 knockouts.

Both he and Mosley, who earned $3.5 million, weighed the 147-pound limit.

The heavyweight bout on the undercard was even quicker than the main event -- Jameel McCline knocked Michael Grant down with the first punch of the fight, then referee Tony Weeks halted the match 43 seconds into the first round as the dazed Grant hobbled on an injured right ankle.

McCline, from Clinton, N.J., dropped Grant with a powerful left as the two first met in the center of the ring. Grant said afterward that his feet weren't set when McCline hit him and that caused the ankle injury.

Grant's injury was later diagnosed as a chip fracture and his foot was placed in a cast.

McCline, who weighed 260 pounds, improved to 26-2-3, with 16 knockouts. The loss was just the second -- but second straight -- for Grant, 254 pounds, from Norristown, Pa.

Grant (31-2) was knocked out in the second round by Lennox Lewis in their title bout on April 29 of last year.
