    i think a lot of people are underestimating cotto big time.. he is more than a one dimensional slugger.. he has a good jab, can box good, fights southpaw or orthodox and methodically breaks u down with constant pressure and a great body attack, i think a lot of u will be surprised saturday

      Chill out bro, I'm just ****in around. You obviously don't understand sarcasm. I like Cotto, but some of his fans on this forum piss me off with the constant comparisons to a bonafide hall of famer like Felix Trinidad. Cotto has a long way to go before he reaches the level of the legend Felix Trinidad.

          I can relate to you on the whole PRIDE aspect. I am Eastern European and I support the fighters from there, you're Puerto Rican and you support your fighters. There HAVE been some crazy posters on here that have said Cotto is on the same level as Trinidad and that kinda pissed me off. I have got a lot of money riding on this fight and I am huge Mosley fan so don't take it the wrong way if I get worked up in some of my posts.

            cotto isnt taht good of a fighter. he has been having hard fights with bums before. mosley will knock him out and then margarito will retire him.

In today's age where boxers dont fight as often, the development of training techniques, and supplements, age is not as much as an issue for the bigger fighters.
                Exactly. And I have seen a lot of Cotto fans say that Shane is too old and won't be able to withstand a war with Cotto if it comes to it. Unless he comes out looking like Castillo against Hatton I don't think age will be a factor in this fight.

                  I was thinkin they'll put him in with Margarito after this loss.

                  Good call.

                    i'm not even trying to flame you...


                    BUT HONESTLY.. Do you think cotto... Miguel Cotto could use the jab on Shane mosely?


                    You gotta be kidding me.
