      Well, 2 fights ago, against Oscar, every single time he threw it.

      I agree that he has mastered both pretty well at this point, and that he wouldn't have a problem going back to his original style if he found himself in trouble, or against an opponent where his old style matches up favorably against.

      He is starting to remind me of Marco Antonio Barrera the way he can do a multitude of things to win fights. He's actually made a fan out of me.

        Jabs were landing...but those ****s were poking. They weren't knocking his head back or anything like that.

          Apparantly this is one of the best left jabs EVER... E-V-E-R.

          Cotto's is good, but it's not particularly long, or fast. It is powerful and accurate, but the speed issue may hurt him if he fought someone with a good right-hand counter like Floyd.
          watch the post i made to smokin shane is bigger than floyd and cotto landed more than 75 jabs or more easily i think u are underrating cotto's speed man.

            I didn't see almost any effective jab work from Hatton to be totally honest, and I knew that would be the case. I have problems with fighters who can't use a jab effectively, because they are VERY susceptible to being outboxed, because they have no vehicle to get on the inside with.

            I think that is why Castillo did so well against Floyd. They pointed that out in the keys to victory before Corrales-Castillo I, that Castillo moves forward when he jabs, which allows him to get on the inside.

            If Cotto can do that, then Mayweather might be in trouble... however, he also might have figured that out as shown in Mayweather-Castillo II.

            I really think it is going to take an excellent boxer-puncher with a stellar jab to beat Mayweather.

              Jabs against Floyd are only useful if they are used to get into a position to throw other punches. When used as pot-shots they become pointless after a few rounds.

                  and Miguel Cotto is the next coming of Albert Einstein.

                  I cant wait till Mayweather fights Cotto, it will be after Oscar.

                    I saw Mayweather's head get snapped back by some jabs. I was actually getting pretty scared that Mayweather was going to lose the fight in the middle rounds when I was watching live.

                    Shane isn't much of a distance fighter though. Shane is a pressure type of fighter. I think you judging how Cotto's jab would do against Mayweather by the Mosley fight is a mistake.
