BETTER FIGHT: Pavlik-Taylor or Cotto-Mosley

**�ringer** · 08-22-2007, 10:48 PM

I think the majority will say Cotto/Mosley, but I'm going with Taylor/Pavlik. Both guys are in their primes, undefeated, and it has all the ingredients for an all out slugfest. Cotto/Mosley is a damn good fight too but Mosley's age is advancing and I think some people are giving him too much credit at his age, similar to Oscar before the Mayweather fight.

I agree. I think both will be great, but while Mosley-Cotto has the potential to be a Great fight, i think Pavlik-Taylor has the potential to be a classic

That was my thing, I think Shane isn't nearly as game as people around here are saying he is. The two fights against Vargas and the fight against Collazo didn't showcase much as far as depth goes. I wonder if half the people picking him to win aren't just doing it because they think Cotto is overrated.

Cotto-Mosely is an abosolutely guaranteed great fight.

Pavlik-Taylor is probably a very good fight, but I could see it getting sloppy with Taylor's style.

I'm saying Cotto-Mosely.

Taylor will fight whatever kind of fight Pavlik wants. Taylor always fights down to his opponet's level, if Pavlik wants to bomb with Taylor, Taylor will engage. If he wants to box with him, Taylor will box. I honestly can't see Taylor taking Steward's advice and sticking to a strict boxing gameplan.

with the style in these fight both will be equally as great no doubt about it two foty fight oh boy taylor will try to match palvik punch for punch, as will Mosley try to match Cotto punch for punch... both fights will be fireworks for the first 6 rounds garanteed... the only question is who will win... these even fights it gets no better than these

BETTER FIGHT: Pavlik-Taylor or Cotto-Mosley
