    "Sugar" Shane Mosley by a unanimous decision. Cotto's body shots are definately a factor in the fight but I doubt he'd be able to land enough of them to wear Mosley out. Shane's too quick and too experienced, Cotto would be mentally defeated after the first 6 rounds.

      thing is im not even sure if cotto hits much harder if harder at all at 147... hes gonna be the better body puncher for sure but mosley IMO is more dangerous to the head. Torres showed that cotto isnt the hardest puncher(though i think hes the best body puncher). I just dont think cotto's strength advantage is big enough to compensate for the difference in speed and skills and experience. Mosley by UD

        Cotto could go Southpaw, which he is excellent at, his straight left is sick!
        Not sure who the Stronger man is, Shane is a Strong lil dude man!
        Puncher? Id actually favour Cotto now, slightly! Shane is wicked to the body but Miguel is better, and i still hav this image of Mosley Yelping out loud when Viper tagged him to the ribs along the ropes And even Vargas was slowing him down in the 1st fight with his downstaires work.

          Yeh but look how easy Cotto is to nail...
          Mosely would have him on ***** street again like torres had him only mosely
          has the weapons and the speed to finish off Cotto when his doing his Zab Judah Shuffle

            Cotto would have to up his game against Shane for sure but if u look at his earlyier fights his defence was amazeing, He duz seem a lil more reckless these days, KO crazy but against a TOP fighter i think he'd tighten up his D

              I just think Mosely is to fast to accurate i think he will be hurting Cotto..
              Saying that though Cotto could catch him and slow him down with
              his bodyshot and maybe nail him like Forrest did but Cotto is a totally
              different fighter to Forrest..

                Im of the opinion Cotto's chin is sound, but yeah Mosley has the power to hurt him. For me its a Cotto Win, I just hope we get to find out! I dont see it happining tho, Bob and Oscar r to much of ***gots!

                  Toss up for me Im not sure if Shane has faced anyone with the raw power of Cotto. Shane is probably the best combination puncher in the game right now. It's a pick em fight for me but I would lean more toward shane because he is the more experienced of the two. Too bad Arum is a jack ass and this fight will probably never happen. But who knows maybe it will.

                    man, cotto isnt that big of a name outside of P.R and on the coasts.
                    the guy is good but with his midget 66inch reach and at this time unproven boxing skills(look who he's fought) he has slightly more than a little chance against top contenders at 147.
                    and i like him but i'm not going to suck on a pipe dream.
                    he's almost top tier now but with the bigboys at welter he's just a name that could bring them easier money than facing each other.period.
                    Either youre another alt or just delusional.

                      margarito,williams,judah beats his ass.
                      just look at who he's fought.
                      you may be suffering from the hope of a second tito. and tito melted against top tier boxers.
                      cottos dangerous to all but only has a punchers chance against top tiers.
                      Yeah Margarito and Williams have awesome resumes dont they? Get the **** outta here.
