      From what I remember of Randall Bailey he isn't going to give Cotto a good look on how Mosley fights. Am I wrong for thinking this?

        But he will help Cotto deal with Mosley's power hand (the right)...

          I don;t like Miguel'sparring partners but I've never liked his sparring cause he always looks clumsy. I don't know what happens come fight night though cause he becomes a ****ing machine.

              The factor in this fight: Mosley has TWO good hands. Putting too much emphasis and focus on the right hand is like playing russian roulette.

                Bailey is actually a pretty GOOD sparring partner.

                He likes to throw them little baby measuring jabs to set up huge right hands and other punches, the thing he was doing and Cotto timed perfectly and knocked him down in the 2nd round of their fight. Mosley measures his opponents the same exact way. Aside from that, Bailey is too slow to get ready for Mosley. He deffinately needs someone faster, and stronger. Mosley is a strong welterweight, Bruseles and Bailey are junior welterweights and Lau sucks.

                  randall bailey looked good as hell against ngoudjo in the beginning of their fight then seemed to fade and let ngoudjo back in the fight. I still think he won that fight but he is a great sparring partner for Cotto to prepare. He has good hand speed and power a good strong jab and as far as quality of sparring partners go he should be considered top notch.

                    Um, Randall Bailey? Wasn't that the same guy Cotto knocked out? What the hell is he doing beating up on his leftovers? I don't see in any way how that would help the situation. But since he's doing that, why not hire Judah and tell him to switch stance?
