    Cotto is getting to the point where he's been in a few wars and the wear and tear could eventually become an issue. He went life and death with Corley, Torres, Malignaggi, Judah and now Mosley. I doubt Gomez or even the Cintron-Margarito 2 winner are going to be the ones to expose any wear he's gotten, but it could be something to think about for Cotto moving forward. I still think he'll be ok for a few more years.


    I disagree the only fight were Cotto recieved brutal punishment was in the Ricardo Torres fight, in the other fights he just recieved the "normal" punishment every fighter gets in a boxing match.

      I agree 100% with you.

        cotto was impressive against mosley. against big wlters still dont see the power his fans say he has but against mosley he proved to me he's not one dimentional . mosley clocked him a few times and he handled it well. would think he walked away from that win with more knowledge and confidents.
        feel there was no lasting effects from mosleys punches.

            Mosley was 36 not 37 and you are giving him way too little credit. Mosley is a more credible opponent than DLH at this point in his career.

            Floyd wont fight Cotto, he is not willing to put his legacy at risk and Miguel Cotto is without a doubt the biggest threat to Mayweather. If you wont admit that, than please provide me with the name of a more credible and deserving opponent than Cotto.

              No, this will not be the night Cotto shows up in the ring and is old. But I think that day comes sooner than most think it will.

                I have to disagree and I think you're believing what you want to believe. In most of the fights I watch people don't have to resort to hitting low and aren't bleeding gulps of blood from inside their mouth by the end of the fight.

                I don't think it'll have any effect on Cotto in the near future, but he's taken more punishment than most undefeated guys. He finds a way to win and is usually strong at the end of the fight, which is the most important part, but he takes a lot of punishment.

                  I think Mosley and DLH are about the same. Mosley just gets a lot of credit because he beat a beyond shot Fernando Vargas twice. Let's be honest with ourselves and admit that in reality the DLH-Mosley series is 1-1. DLH beat Mayorga who also beat Vargas and lost to Hopkins and Mayweather. Mosley would lose to both of them too.

                  We'll find out a lot about where Mosley is at with the Judah fight. If he does anything short of win a convincing fight against Judah then Mosley is probably still about even with DLH.

                    Bottomline is you can't keep almost getting knocked out your whole career. If his diet isn't super, that **** is gonna show at any time. Also in his shorter career he's taken more damage then ...yeah Money Mayweather. Gomez has got a good chance of pulling off an upset ifb he and his corner can get him to utilize his abilities as the naturally bigger man and capatilize on Cottos mistakes, They say a Champion has to be ready for the challenger to come in 110% better then he's ever been. I think it's gon be a great fight.

                    Plus if Gomez wins , I'm gonna start watching the contender.

                      Also, you discredit Mosley. He may be 37 but he hasn't all that much mileage on the clock, has never been stopped, is still evidently a very fast and accurate fighter competing at the top level. Mosley has always been good at landing power shots, even against Wright (rematch) he landed them well, that fight was very close.



                      Oh please.

                      Mosley way past his prime and who ever didi`nt see this is either
                      jocking Cotto to much or just plain ******ed.
