    Going with Cotto by late KO or UD.

    I could see Mosely age factor taking a toll on him e****ally when Cotto is going to hit many bodyshots and will slow him down and wear him out.

    But Mosely left hook are faster than Cotto so it is possaibly also that Mosely could win by KO with a counter left hook as Cotto goes for the body and stunts him with it and then release flurries. or counter with straight right as Cotto goes for the Body.

    as for the stamina Cotto is okay stamina at WW at Zab Fight he seemed very tired and out of breath so if Mosely moves around abit and jabs then see an open make him move around and take him out of focus. When that Happen Cotto will start to jab abit and then go for the body similar to Judah fight which is to Mosely advantage.

    so it close to call but definitly Cotto has the edge in here. Mosely was impressive in his last three fight two against shot vargas and the last one against the broken thumbs Callazo which I dont know how it effected the outcome of the fight.

      Im backing Cotto to win a thriller!
      I Love both these guys but Miguel Cotto will win this fight IMO heres why:
      He's the younger and yes FRESHER fighter, his chin aint half as bad as people make out, i mean Torres a devastating puncher caught him Flush and stunned him (while he was weight drained) and then proceeded to land SEVERERAL Heavy shots, BUT Cotto took them and in my opinion this proved his chin and his toughness more than hurt it. Corley an under rated puncher caught him with a shot high on the temple that would hav hurt any1, its just a weird shot! Again on a weight drained Cotto. Judah a Huge 1punch hitter landed flush and stunned Miguel but when u watch it he wasnt really that hurt and even if he was there would hav been no shame in it! In all 3 cases Coto comes back to stop the other fighter! Also he cuts off the ring SO SO well Shane (who likes a fight anyway) will have to engage him, he,s Bull strong and as mentally strong as a fighter can be AND at 147lbs his stamina is excellent! I still cant shake the image and sound of Mosley letting out a HORRIBLE Yelp along the Ropes when Forrest dug 1 to the body and NO1 goes to the body like Cotto! I actually expect Miguels under rated jab to be a factor in this fight too. Another thing, Cotto duznt yet know how to lose - Shane duz.
      Even tho ive said i dont doubt Cottos chin, i fully expect him to get hurt by Sugar who has super quick hands and can ****! I see him coming thru the crisis tho like he has in the past to score a late KO over a tired Shane Mosley or to sweep the last few rounds for a UD

        OK so.....


        and what you can't stalk without being hit. Tyson in his prime, did a pretty good job of stalking without taking too much punishment.

          he doesnt not get that offend but he is either in hitting mood or defensive mood, by blocking shot with the gloves, Cotto is not good at countering punchs.

              This quote was hilarious to me. That really means a whole lot. Mosley is the Vet who is still strong and dangerous. He has seen a Cotto before in his career, Cotto has never seen a mosley who has such speed and power. If Zab wasn't that 1 punch artist and actuallylet his hands go and put together some combos he would have hurt Cotto even worse. Zab was just too worried about getting hit. I think I'm picking Mosley now, he has never lost to someone smaller in size to him and it's not like Cotto has the better skills. And Cotto ain't tall with a long reach either like Forrest or Wright. i'm going with Mosley!

                  the problem with Zab he is not consistance in the fight he got 1/2 min super and the rest he is losing the round.

                  But I dont know if someone is consistanced and vetran like Shane Mosely what he will do.

                    Maybe so, but my pt is, it can be done. Someone who has had a questionable chin (weight drain or not) should develop a defense where he doesn't get hit so much. And that's make me wonder if he can handle Mosley's speed and power
