    cotto wasn't trained by cus damato.tyson is the exception name other puncher stalkers that don't get hit.

      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!
      I know my post seemed super confident but im well aware how dangerous this fight is for Cotto. Mosley is a dangerous Vet BUT 1 who has LOST as i said. Cotto hasnt yet.
      Who has Mosley fought like Cotto? Aint saying he hasnt but i cant think off the top of my head and dont say Diaz!

        Oscar De La Hoya....lol. Ok, maybe Mosley hasn't eaxctly seen a Cotto either that goes to the body like that. But he has been fighting bigger men and therefore more use to big punches. i think he can take it without dropping his hands. But i don't know if Cotto can take him.

          but many fighters dont concentrate to the body like Cotto.

          the key for Mosely to win is either by counter him or by boxing him abit so Cotto cant hit his left hook to the body.

                  if cotto is being trained by mayweather senior in the philly shell southpaw [emphasis on the left hand] stance then you would have a point but he's not his uncle is his trainer.

                    I think Mosley can box with him and **** with him. He has both those dimensions, Cotto only has 1, although it is effective. Also someone said Cotto cuts the ring off well, but he isn't that great at that. Quintana got away from him and out of corners pretty well, but he couldn't tkae the shots. I think Mosley will just pull it out and take advantage of that hittable defense that Cotto has.

                      Well he should get somebody to teach him that then....and quite frankly none of that is my concern when picking who will win this fight. fact is dude gets hit a lot and he needs to do something about it if he wants to beat Mosley.
