if we know for a fact that Shane will still have atleast one more big fight in him and he's with Richardson while at the same time were talking about the pre Margarito fight version of Cotto? Basically Im saying that this version of Mosley with no chance of being old vs the Cotto we saw before the Margarito fight. Who wins it? Again, Im still talking about right now but Im saying with both of them at there best with Cotto having no effects of the Margarito fight?
I would love to see it. I think once you lose like Cotto and many other fighters have then alot of people forget how good guys were. Cotto was a very good fighter. However, I think Mosley was coming in strong at the end of there last fight, Cotto fades, and I love the fact that Shane got rid of his dad so I will go with Mosley. Ive always loved Richardson and I thought people were crazy when theyy said that he wouldnt have any impact on that fight.
It always makes me think of the idiot Zab. How can he let his career go totally down the drain by not atleast having 1 fight with a different trainer? These guys arent world class trainers. There's a reason why dad's always give there fighters away to better trainers. Zab's dad isnt even a boxer. Kickboxing is totally differernt then boxing. Look at Berto. You can tell his dad was a beast kickboxer who knows some things but he realizes that boxing is different and he got him a real boxing trainer while he still trains guys in kickboxing. Zab's dad cant cut it. Zab thinks he has heart because he puts family 1st but that is garbage. Either your a somebody or not and he's going to go down with the ship as a nobody. His dad is even worst. If he had any kind of true love for his son then he would step aside. They act like they still cant be friends or wont still be father & son.
Sorry to get off topic but it had to be said. Anyways, who you got in the Mosley-Cotto rematch if they are both at there best?
I'm not sure what Shane could learn by watching Cotto-Margarito, his style is just too different. Mosley is a speed and volume fighter rather than a strong (or plastered, whatever...) come-forward guy, I don't see him breaking Cotto's will or outboxing him. It should be as close as last time, styles make fights.
he fought a great fight against Margarito but imo Cotto beats Mosley again.
I predicted Mosley would win last time.. I don't think I could say the same again. styles make fights and Cotto has the style to beat Mosley.
Cotto makes mistakes too and the way he's been talking, it doesn't seem like he'll change his style much if at all.
I have a feeling that Cotto fought to the best of his ability in their first fight but that Mosley can fight a better fight, and with Richardson in his corner, he will fight a better fight, plus Mosley knows how to beat Cotto now, from his own experience and from watching Cotto-Margarito.
The Nazeem factor is there. He could make a difference, and if Cotto is dimished in any way, Mosley can take this.
Most likely a toss up, to be honest a draw wouldn't surprise me. But there are a few questions up in the air; will Cotto focus more on stamina instead of muscle now? Is Cotto damaged after going one on one for eleven rounds with a guy wearing "brass knuckles"? And without taking credit from his near-perfect gameplan, is Mosley really that good or is the non-plastered Margarito just pathetic?
Cotto still wins assuming Margarito didn't ruin him. Mosley had enough left to beat Margarito, but he was making mistakes all night long that Cotto would have capitalized on. He got away with things because Margarito is so slow.
Its possible that Shane can still bang out a victory by KO or in a tough tough fight, but hes not going to be outboxing Cotto the way he did Margarito.

With the right strategy I think Mosley wins, I would have said Cotto before yesterday but Mosley made me a believer.
Amen, I picked a draw however simply because I scored the last (or first rather) fight just that. Both are great fighters, and each time they fight it'll be close.
