    BEST WEAPONS/DEFENSE


    Miguel Cotto:

    Heavy handed with a good assortment of punches, but thunderous left hook to the body is signature blow ... Calm demeanor is a major asset; never panics when tagged with a good shot or dropped ... Excellent combination puncher ... Self confidence a significant factor.

    Displays solid defensive skills when in boxer mode, depsite only average mobility ... When in slugger mode, over commits to punches and leaves himself open for counters ... Slow hands leave him vulnerable to quicker fighters when both punch simultaneously ... Intelligently clinches when hurt.



    Shane Mosley:

    Explosive combination puncher ... Tremendous body puncher ... Power in both hands, but straight right could be slightly harder than left hook, especially when thrown to the head ... Accurate jab ... Power has decreased since moving up from 135 pounds, but better at 147 than 154.

    Uses bouncy legs to rapidly move out of opponents striking ability ... Good upper body movement ... Busy offense has discourage many foes from getting too brave ... Also knows how to create angles on the inside that allows him to punch without giving foes the same opportunity.

      If he fought Cotto?
      No....I meant Judah....brain fart. You seemed to imply that Cotto barely squeaked by Judah. Is that what you think?

        Did you see the fight?


        Steve Farhood and Teddy Atlas think that.

        And they're not the only ones..

        They have stated that Cotto would have been likely knocked out early without his dirty tactics.

        Judah wasn't punching back very much after the fouls.

        When Judah was punching, he was hurting Cotto with virtually everything remotely meaningful he landed. It ain't rocket science.

        And as I have already mentioned.. Cotto said that the Judah fight was the toughest of his career.

        It seems Miguel thinks he may have done some squeaking as well.

          I missed that fight. That's why I was asking you about it.

                  Miguel Cotto by UD. His body shots and hos underrated hand speed will carry him through the fight.

                    < I finally figured out what this is..

                    It's Miguel Cotto when he takes a break in the action and lowers his arms and does that little gorilla dance. Pretty much identical.

                    (He does it alot in the Malignaggi fight)
