What will the excuses be on Nov 11?

[eazy_mas]

I can already see it, if Cotto wins, Shane is shot, Cotto is and always been a dirty fighter, PBF or Hatton will kill him, blah, blah, blah.

If Shane wins thou, what can Cotto fans say? He's fighting a former p4p fighter,bigger man, bigger name.

But.... For some reason odds makers think Cotto will take it, should be a good one.

it hard to say I am wrong or He kicked my ass fair and square.

There alway must be excuse for something

[squealpiggy]

Kessler gave Calzaghe props: He really messed up my boxing"
Tszyu gave Hatton props: "Tonight he was the better man"
Tyson gave Lewis props: "He's a great champion and I love him like a brother"

It doesn't take much to lose with dignity.

Bringing up the Judah fight again, huh?

I get your meaning smarty pants.. Good thing your boy is dirty.

Your ass would have been paying me if not for that.

You sound more confident than you did awhile back when you told me you didn't think Cotto could win this fight.. That makes you the Benedict Arnold of Puerto Ricans, rat boy.

It's sweet how you try to defend Cotto's staments.

Very touching.

LOL, just saying you said the same, what should we just ignore it now?

LOL, dirty? Hmmm, I could say the same about Judah and Mosley but no need to diminish them.

I actually thought Mosley had an edge until I heard how desperate him and his father sounded talking all that smack, I realized then they know they're gonna get their ass kicked and might even try the same grammy award performance Judah gave. Never recall Mosley giving out excuses before a fight.

I'm not defending Cotto's statements, who belittled who first? That's my point.

You can count me out as one of the people who is going to criticise the winner of this match. Whoever wins this fight will have survived a stern challenge and will be deserving of all the praise they get. No doubt the usual suspects will be there to crticise but I wont be entertaining any of those clowns with reasoned debate as it is clearly beyond them.

[lyrical]

I think Mosely will take his loss like a man.

Please just marvel at the pathetic and obvious nature of this response...

It boggles the mind.

He SOLD OUT on his Puerto Rican brother like a true Judas and his reason for coming back was because Jack Mosley said he basically thinks his son is going to kick Cotto's ass.. Now he "doesn't like Shane's chances."

Because of what Jack Mosley said.. ^ :wank: :wank:

Honestly, the way the fight pans out will determine what people will say. If the fight is close, a lot of people on the side of the losing fighter, will complain that their fighter was robbed. If it's one-sided, then the losing side will have ammunition. Either that one fighter is a dirty fighter, or the other uses steroids. It's all really just how the fight goes down. That's why, for the sake of the fight, I hope it's close, that it's a war, a good fight and that it ends in a good stoppage.

People might think cheating is still in play, but it wont matter much, because KOs are hard to erase from your memory.

Also, someone asked how Cotto could be Mosley. Mosley is getting a bit old, doens't show it yet, but he is. Mosley HAS been hurt before, though the fighter was a much harder overall puncher (in Forrest.) However, Cotto is the hungrier, younger fighter. He gets rocked, but he comes back and wins so that's all that matters to this point. He has a GREAT body attack, something that Mosley has never faced at this level, and his speed could be zapped if that happens for an extended period of time. Also, Mosley is a proud fighter, if he gets in trouble he's not running or holding. He's duking it out, whether that's smart or not. Cotto doesn't slow down, even when he gets hit, it just gives him more reason to attack. Fights good on the outside, and has decent boxing skills when he needs to use them.

That being said.. I pick Mosley over Cotto. Mosley has the better skills, overall, and can attack with better combinations. He has better head movement, and lateral movement. Can use the ring to his advantage and he's very good at not letting the ring be cut off. He has the faster hands and feet, and IMO, the better one punch power. PLUS, like I said, he's faster so you don't see the punches coming. Mosley has a solid beard, and as shown in his most recent fight, has GREAT stamina, even compared to the younger fighters. Cotto is no Collazo, but I still think that Mosley can get the job done, in terms of keeping up with the younger guy.

Mosley, by LATE STOPPAGE.

LOL, funny how we went from buddies to you getting your PMS early and starting personal insults over internet. Easy tough guy!

I don't sell out on no one. That's the difference between me and you, I see fights and match ups, your point of view might change from time to time depending on what you see, who knows if for some strange reason I see a weight drained Cotto at weigh in, I might pick Mosley again, or maybe if I hear Cotto's left hand might be hurt or something like that, I'm not afraid of calling it how I see it. I'm not trying to fit in the PR crowd son, I am PR! On the other hand, youre still whining and praying for someone to beat Cotto, anyone, anyhow.... Youre a sore loser man...

I do pay close attention to what trainers and fathers have to say before fights as well as fighters themselves, it says a lot about their confidence.
