Boxing Video - "Sugar" Shane Mosley Interview

[The Surgeon]

I do, brotha. It'll cost me a $50!

But I'm happy to put money into these two.

Actually I'm feeling really good coming down the stretch. I've been confident throughout but I still have a little trauma from looking up at the electronic board at Sportsbook in the MGM Grand Casino and seeing Cotto's name up there back on June 9th!! I got Cottowned!

When a guy totally shocks you like that it gives you pause.

But I'm gonna be a man and drive back to Vegas this week and buy another $1000 dollar ticket on Shane Mosley. I will be AVENGED!

I get Sentana over here for £5 a month, Cotto and Calzaghie are on, got Hatton vs Castillo the other month its Gid like!
Im actually feeling pretty confident too which is wierd coz im normally **** scared before a Big Cotto fight! Even weirder after having seen Sugar Whipping in those Right hands in that video!
U Putting £1000 on Mosley???? Dont do it dude!
Im gonna drop £200 on My boy Cotto im thinking.
Did i tell u i was supposed to go to this fight but cant get in2 America coz of a ****** charge i got years back!!!

I've got to, #1! I have to back up my own balls. Prove it to myself.

I'm putting $1000 on the head of Miguel Cotto and I expect Mosley to deliver.


That restriction is outrageous, man. Just because you had a situation shouldn't mean they inconvenience you traveling this Earth. The bastards really think they own this planet!

Somewhere down deep I'm pulling for a Cotto win though because it keeps our welterwight division more electric with Miguel surging forward. His next fight could be even more massive and you'll have the time to schedule it!

I'll probably hav a ****in baby by then tho!!!!!
Na think i'll try and go see him at next years PR day parade ASSUMING he's fighting, and that it looks like being a good fight! My folks would babysitt or i could just leave the missus too!!!

Yeah respect to that dude u put ur money where ur mouth is!
U didnt bet on ZAB tho did u man? Did u..................?
I Hope not!

[Knicksman20]

This is the type of fight where I'd like to watch with very few people on fight night. I hate answering ****** ass questions during an intense fight or listening to people that aren't really interested in the fight. That spoils the moment.

I did, I bet Zab. HaHa! $1,000 worth of squat.

Honestly though, after I saw the fight I wasn't more impressed with Miguel.

I was impressed with the general explanation that people who picked Miguel gave before the fight. That's basically what happened.

But what I said was going to happen also happened. I just didn't anticipate Miguel would be so proactive about leveling the playing field when he realized Judah could take his head off. I never had any doubt Cotto dropped him with the first low blow to reset the pace. I don't think he did it to kill all Zab's potential - but he succeeded in doing that as well.

Novemeber 10th is going to tell the story. I'm pleased to see pretty much everyone who picked Cotto sticking with him. They need this lesson.

Miguel is a good hard cookie, but he was never at this level. And I feel he bypassed his first stepping stone by turning over the card table when he realized his hand wasn't that good. Beating up a damaged guy who's backing away from you is one thing.. Proving you're capable of beating the best is another. And Judah was only godawful.

Mosley is going to destroy Miguel Cotto. You heard it from me!

It can be distracting. Especially with non-serious observers, agreed.

But like #1 said I think this fight will be soo entertaining even the rookies out there will be enthralled by the action. There may be fewer questions - but I know what you mean. I missed like half of Mayweather/De La Hoya because people were bored and kept jabbering.


Shane has made it very clear he's going to fight, fight, fight!

That's something ALOT of people are completely unprepared for; myself, #1, and you aside from the convo.

They think Shane is going to dance and panic and **** when Cotto starts landing. This is going to be shocking for some I guess..

I said it before I'll say it again - watch when Cotto has to back off from Shane's venom. Mosley is a mean old man.

I just checked them on bodoglife. It's all here, hopefully Sportsbook is a little better but most likely not. The numbers should be quite even.

Miguel is the favorite which suprised me a tad initially..

Cotto -145

Mosley +115

I agree, man! I know how you're seeing this as a Tua, Tyson, Cotto minded guy like yourself. I like your angle on this the very best! There's a great chance Miguel can body him when it comes down to raw aggression.

If I felt Cotto could weather the storm as much as he can cause one I might have to go that way, but I just think Miguel is much better at dishing out punishment than taking it! He's fighting the wrong guy for that. Top Rank made a big mistake. I know Miguel trusts them implicitly..

I think Shane Mosley is everything Cotto won't want. Perfect foil.

What's up guys, I am new here....... I just think that Mosley is just not the same anymore man, he has not looked the same in his last fights not to mention the ****** losses he's had. I really think he is going down in this fight, even in the interviews he and his dad look nervous and never seem to say with certainty that they will win this fight specially by KO.......
