I thought that second guy was going to give Shane Cotto's look a bit more but he doesn't have Miguel's skills or technique.. There are some vague similarity's but not on the same order of course.
Shane's right hand is looking HEALTHY though. He was ****in unloading!
He's looking extremely accurate and really wrapping over on those shots getting full leverage.
The counter left hook is looking cherry as well.
Mosley is going to be LOVING those 8oz. gloves. -

Based on what Jack Mosley has stated in his interview because all this footage seems pretty linear, I would assume that the first guy Shane was sparring was 160, and the second guy was 170.
It means little because neither one of those guys was named Miguel Cotto, but Shane does look nice and strong tangling with a 170 guy weighing 152.Comment

Sugars real strong but Cotto's a Bull i think he will hav an edge in strength. Not by much tho!Based on what Jack Mosley has stated in his interview because all this footage seems pretty linear, I would assume that the first guy Shane was sparring was 160, and the second guy was 170.

I agree, Cotto is way stronger than Shane and Jack seem to understand in my view. They keep passing over the issue of Cotto's strength and I think that may be a mistake. The Mosley's are just a little more pride and ego than I need them right now, but I trust they'll get with the program once they realize Miguel is a brick ****house. The kid is solid!Comment

Physically Mosley looks in phenomenal shape. Addy I think Cotto will be very surprised at how strong Mosley is. Cotto's used to being the bull or the stronger fighter in all of his fights. When he's not able to Mosley we'll really see what he's made of.Comment

I think he will be surprised by Shane's strength as well.
The only thing that concerns me about that is some people tend to take it up even higher when they realize they're in mortal danger with someone more powerful. On a few occassion I've seen strong guys get even stronger with strong opponents.
I don't like that Shane is already talking about trying to outmatch his guy.
I know he'll do his thing but he needs to let Cotto be the brute.Comment

I see your point. I think Mosley will do his thing & **** with him in spots but we'll see him fighting smart as well.I think he will be surprised by Shane's strength as well.
