    my guy, please note flag at bottom, will win because a) he is fighting a very good champ, but unfortunately he's a bit past his prime and that bit will get him beat by another great fighter (premature maybe, believable, absolutely) in cotto - yeah i think that one reason'll do.

      cotto only lacks on defense but he has not go down everything else is very effective and that's why he's a 2 division world champion cotto's body attack + pressure + stamina is he's key for victory.

        cotto is on his way up,i think he'll look at his fight with judah and tighten his defense up i think shane fighting in spurts in his recent fights should indicate how he's gonna deal with miguel's pressure, he won't.will get rocked once or twice and then proceed to destroy mosley's body,trust me shane won't be throwing combinations by the 4th.cotto ko mosley 11

          I think this is a pick em fight. Truth be told, I didn't see Cotto handle Zab's speed in their fight. Whenever Zab threw, he landed! It's just that Zab was reluctant to throw as usual and the lowblows didn't help either. 1 thing I do know for sure is that Mosley will be able to withstand Cotto's body attack, but I don't know if mosley can keep up in stamina and endurance with Cotto. also will Cotto be able to withstand Mosley's shots? He has had a questionable chin in the past and it's not like his defense has improved. he is still very hittable.

            cotto is hittable cause he's a stalking fighter.

              what people don't realize is that the only person to rock Cotto really really really bad just happened to be like 28-0, 26 KO's or something like that, was a champion as well and highly regarded plus it was 7 pounds south of his comfortable weight, a class that he killed himself to make, it was no surprise Chop Chop could do that to him and Lovemore could go the distance with him as well as Torres knocking him silly, the guy wasn't in his natural form, he is now where he belongs and in that weight Judah who happens to be very strong rocked him only a little, ALL of these times though Cotto always came back, he found some way to bring himself back into contention and I don't see no difference with Mosley..

              I actually think Mosley will abandon his skills advantage in times where Cotto forces the fight because Shane like's to exchange when given the right time and he has never faced a puncher like Cotto, Vernon hits harder, yes, but he doesn't let it all out in the way Cotto does, his punch arsenal isn't the same because he focuses more on the sweet science while Cotto uses skill but more aggression than anything else even if it means taking a bunch, Vernon tried that type of fighting against Mayorga in the first fight and look what happened ya dig? he's not the kind of puncher Cotto is not due to the strength factor because he's stronger but Cotto is only a notch or two below him in Power and he throws twice as much of them crumbling shots and Cotto is VERY accurate, he is going to in effect even though being weaker than Vernon do more damage than Vernon did due to the volume that he punches in, Vernon only hits harder but he's a Boxer puncher being a boxer 1st while Cotto is a puncher/boxer being a puncher 1st and that makes him the biggest puncher Mosley has faced in literally years..

              I don't feel Mosley is done but I don't think he will defeat Cotto, I just see something in Cotto that makes me believe he will win, his punches are on the money and he's dangerous still even when he's hurt, Cotto is just too much for anyone right now, I would even pick him to beat Floyd in all honesty, I think he could break Floyd down because even though Floyd has strength he doesn't use it to knock you out, he does if he can but he mainly boxes you and Cotto is GREAT against Boxers, he knows how to find them and land in bunches. the best fighter that Floyd has faced in his last 5 aside from Oscar just got knocked out by Cotto and Oscar himself wouldn't go no where with him neither, none of Mayweather's last 5 opponents are like Cotto, Oscar is fading, Judah got beat by Cotto already and lost worse than what he did to Floyd and the other 3 well I shouldn't have to get into it. I think after Nov. 10th people will realize who Cotto really is.. 100

                    am not impressed with cottos power at 147.am impressed with the way cotto gets stronger in later rounds.
                    mosleys a big welter.
                    cotto had to go 12 against paulie and paulies no mosley.
                    mosley schools cotto.
