    Mosley ran too, don't lie.

    Both Mosley and Cotto did their share of hugging and running in the fight. Mosley in the middle rounds, Cotto in the late rounds.

      Mosley looked like a gyrating vibrator at times in that fight.

          That's what he did.

          BTW- you said that you wanted to see him get wobbled. Which is a guy who wants to see damage. Don't get uppity with me, kid.

            Kind of a myth that zag went toe to toe for the entire 12th round. He was on his bike in the latter stages. he went toe to toe for the first minute though.

            And give the guy a break. He dished out 11 rounds of damage.

              It was Kessler doing the real toe-to-toe fighting near the end.

                Cotto unlike DLH, was still countering while on his "bike" DLH was straight up running....

His chin held up well, he went toe to toe at times, he showed he has some boxing ability, and can give his opponets angles, he switched stances a couple times, and never once did anything illegal when it seemed like he was hurt.

                    Cotto earned my respect last night, for real. He's not as one dimensional as everybody had him pegged for, myself included.
                    never thought cotto was 1 dimensional cuz i watched alot of his fights and the guy has good technique...right now cotto is turning from a star to a superstar!!

                    alot of what cotto did (except the jabs) u could see it on the sosa fight.
