De La Hoya Sizing Up Miguel Cotto For May 3

[Zerwas1]

De la Hoya doesn't has the stamina to pressure Cotto and his punches are sloppy nowadays. That said he lost 4 of his last 5 fights.
De la Hoya loses against Cotto. Mayweather wins against Hatton and than follows Mayweather vs Cotto. Mayweather wins and retires happy...

It looked like Cotto was scared to brawl with him towards the end there..


Mosley had some strange, unusual lapses.

You better watch out for De La Hoya.

I dont think they were strange, unusual lapses. it's age my man. Not the same reflexes you insisted he had. Same for De la Hoya. His body wont EVER be the same after the punishment B-Hop gave him . People have this notion that those punches are "just" punches. Without gloves a punch from a boxer is most of the times letal. ANd Oscar's body has just gone thru a lot. Cotto, I just know, would destroy him. Sure oscar has tenacity, but Cotto has heart, and a strong left hook to the body that will end his career.

Oh no, they were strange. It was virus like behavior. It wasn't age.

Cotto had one of the best nights of his life, NOBODY has seen him better, ever. Mosley had a very subpar and sporatic night. It still added up to a draw scenario favoring Cotto. Cotto isn't likely to have the night of his life again. De La Hoya is in better condition that Mosley is now. Do the math.

Floyd better watch out with the judges seeing as this is a GoldenBoy promotion,Oscar wants Ricky to win so bad,hes giving blatant statements he wants Hatton to win so he can fight him

Oh and Oscar would lose to Cotto IMO,Oscar doesnt throw many punches,ive noticed that in his last few fights,he throws in bunches every now and then,and hes got bad stamina problems,that dont work well against a guy like Cotto

Floyd-Cotto, there should be nothing else discussed.

When we were on the plane coming back to PR yesterday, Cotto said the same thing, that he thought Mosley would be more aggresive like he'd been on recent fights, and evangelista told him that "Shane looks like he overtrained his body too much", which of course means that he trained to hard on the "cooling off week" before the fight that you can't work your body up too much. I dont know honestly, but made sense to me. But I think age played a huge factor regardles.

Im fine with this, this will put cotto at the very very top and he'll most likely knock delahoya out with a body shott. Delahoyas body will be extremelly weak at 147 and if mosley couldnt capitalize on those things, no way delahoya does. I'd rather see cotto/ mayweather but I dont care if cotto gets a big pay day and another huge win before he fights mayweather.

My same feelings.

Shane was 3/4 sparring like an idiot a week before the fight.

He was sparring too much in general the last few years. Sparring, sparring, sparring. Cotto was trying to kick his ass and Shane was forgetting where he was. He thought he was back in Big Bear.

So where are some pictures of Cotto and yourself chillin' on a jet?
