Why do people think Oscar de la Drag stands a chance against Cotto?

DLH is no scrub dont count him out. It would be interesting to see Cotto at 154, if Cotto is smart he'll ask DLH to fight him at a catch weight of 150.

Honestly tho Cotto should have no problems wearing Oscar down and maybe even stopping him late if he fights smart. Shane was in phenomenal condition and never really showed signs of slowing down. Everyone on here knows that Cotto will set a pace and body attack that will be tough for DLH to deal with as the fight wears on.

On a side note I wonder what Cotto and his camp will learn from the Mosley fight? They better learn how to defend from that looping right hand he got nailed with all night long.

because the fight would be at 154

DLH is past him prime but he is no joke and cotto stands in front of him he can catch him and thats all he needs.

SInce Oscar fought Hopkins, he's nothing but damaged goods. After that vicious left hook to the body he received, it never is the same. Cotto is just gonna focus on close-range fighting and destroy him easily in 10. People forget that's Cotto's money punch? can't wait for Cotto to retire that drag queen. Oscar is old too, after Cotto beats him they gonna say "oh yeah he was old like Mosley . . ."

Whatever **** you're puttin on your face to make it look like ****sexual disco star, is seepin through your pours and into your brain kiddo lol

Oscar is renowned for not takin punishment, so he's far from damaged. And Cotto has had problems with fighters that have reach, and that can come straight down the middle. Since the Pinto fight, Cotto has been tagged up, rattled, even knocked down by straight hard shots down the middle. Now even at welterweight, I think Oscar is possibly the only fighter that can put Cotto down. I don't think Williams hits nearly hard enough and isn't fast enough to catch Cotto off guard, I doubt Floyd can generate anymore power then Mosley, but Oscar's right hand is still somthin mean right now. I doubt he'll put Cotto down with a left hook, I'd bet it would be a right hand.

But I do think Cotto shouldn't fight Oscar right now though, just cause of the risk and the fact he's first in line to strip Mayweather naked of any, and all belts.

Not to mention, lol You can't compare Hopkins and Cotto left hooks to the body. Hopkins is one punch middleweight power, Cotto is welterweight accumulative power.
