    Here is how I see Cotto/Mosley

    Here is how I see the fight happening

    round 1-5, Mosley is just using his jab and quick one-two's to keep Cotto at bay and has no problems. Cotto is applying alot of pressure but not landing enough. The few bodyshots he does land don't effect Mosley at all.

    Round 6, Cotto starts to fade and fatigue starts kicking in. He is not able to do anything and the few good shots he landed never effected Mosley.

    Round 7, Mosley picks up the pace from quick one-two's to throwing 4-5 punch combinations.

    Round 8, at one point they trade but the steam off of Cotto's punches is gone and Mosley gets the better of the exchange. Mosley catches him with a good shot and cotto is staggered on his feet. Cotto like Vargas against Delahoya backs up against the ropes hurt, Mosley goes for the kill. Either Cotto goes down early and gets a count and another chance OR Mosley just finished him off on his feet with the ref waving it off.

    Im going for the second option.

    Winner by 8rd tko, Shane Mosley

    Bring on Mayweather/Mosley......both their opponents are doomed.

    Hatton sr has already picked out which towel he will be throwing into the ring on Dec. 8th.

      I also see Shane winning by KO. I don't think Cotto will be able to bully and walk down Shane without wwalking through some serious fighter. Shane will connect at a much better connect percentage against Cotto than he did with Collazo who was slick. In that fight Shane had to box and rip power shots through Collazo's guard. I see him finding Cotto a lot easier.

      One thing though if Cotto can work that left jab. And also switch to southpaw and fight effectively at times Shane will have a long night.

        Ray Hatton is already warming up his arm.

          Dammit, guys. I'm hoping that Shame gets his ass kicked. I have not forgiven him for cheating.

          Cupo, you don't see a fresher Cotto wearing him down?

            All you have to look at is the Cotto/Torres fight and the punches Cotto got caught with to see that he has no chance. Mosley has a wide target in front of him.

            Cotto defeated some good boxers (Malinaggi, Quintana, Judah) but they all had flaws that Cotto took advantage off. Malinaggi didn't have the fire power to hold Cotto off....Shane does. Judah had all the speed and the power but he didn't have the mental strength to take a few shots and keep fighting a la vs Baldomir....Mosley does.

            Mosley will not fade like that unless you really hurt him like Forrest did and then you go to work on him. I see mosley picking him apart all night and as the rounds progress he will even get more active and put the hurting on Cotto. No heroic comebacks for Cotto this time.

            Check out the few highlights on what Mosley does to people who don't have a great jab or don't have handspeed that competes with his own:

              Nope...nothing wrong with Mosley. Cotto is good and the fight looks like a pick-em on paper and that's why I will order but I'm pretty sure Mosley will Ice him. People are expecting a great fight and they will be treated to a one sided beating. It won't get anymore exciting then mosley/vargas 2.


              IT'S TIME TO SEPERATE THE PRETENDERS FROM CONTENDERS. THINGS ARE STARTING TO NARROW DOWN AT 147. SOON ONLY ONE GUY WILL BE STANDING.

                I have Shane by late KO as well and although I think Cotto will put up a pretty good fight, I do think it will be an easier night for Shane then most people believe.

                    Name one fight where a bodyshot effected Mosley AND I'll name you two fights where Cotto got hurt by two lesser skilled fighters.
