    cotto has a good defense he only gets caught while he is punching like in the fight with torres and corley
    Yeah but cottos style is nothing like forrest or winky so he would have no problem with cotto. If anything cottos style is similar to vargas'. He's just executes that style better than him. So IMO mosely's is just facing a better version of vargas.

      Yea he comes forward at a slow pace. Cotto is half boxer/half agressor. He is not a great pressure fighter. Good pressure fighter but not great. Mosley will pick him apart from the outside. This is gonna be a one-sided beating.
      People are gonna be suprised how one sided it's gonna be. It looks more competitive then it is right now.

        did you see the de la hoya fight?, lol that sd was bs and im a bigger DLH fan....prime MOsley does to Cotto what old mosley did to old vargas...

        Mosley likes to stay in front of you and overpower you and he has a better defense and quicker offense thancotto, cotto is made for him...Mosley KO'ed
        every opponent but de la hoya at 147 before forrest...up to the forrest fght, only 3 opponents got to a decision with mosley....

          That's one comment i will agree on. And it is because of his notably, rising popularity

                Miguel Cotto does have the offensive tools to beat Mosley, but unfortunatley for him he dosen't have the chin or the defense to withstand the consistent, hard combinations from Mosley. There is no way Cotto can stay undefeated with his style of always coming forward while leaving his chin open to get cracked, he is gonna get exposed. I have already bet a ****load of money on Mosley to KO/TKO Cotto and I am not gonna be disappointed.

                  Not having a great chin and no great defense means not having the tools to beat Mosley. There is plenty of more things he doesn't have in his toolbox to beat Mosley. No great lanky jab (forrest), doesn't have the handspeed that competes with Mosley's. No Size advantage.

                  He is goner.

                    thought about it for a while and i say mosley by ko/tko.

                    while i think mosley will win, it should be a pretty action packed fight.
