    Will Cotto be effected 2nite by the punishment Mosley gave him?

    Landing over 50% of power shots is no joke. Only time will tell. LoL if a 37 year old Mosley who punches with his eyes closed can land over 50% of power punches, imagine what floyd will do who actually choose his punches wisely

    To answer your question, no it won't affect him.

    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.

      I think Judah hurt cotto more than Mosley, BUT I'd never seen Cotto switch up his game to BOX like he did against Mosley. So its a very good question.

            He went into FULL RETREAT MODE against Lovemore N'dou and was sticking the jab and staying on his back foot against Ubaldo Hernandez for a few rounds. It's happened before and he came back strong.

            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.

                Mosley got his share of licks in on Cotto in a good fight, but it ain't like he brutally hammered him. Cotto will be fine.

                    nope he didnt get all that hurt cotto hasnt got the best chin we all know that so he does a lil dance here and there but he comes back strong almost everytime.
                    If it was diego corrales R.I.P and castilo type of fight with mosley then i wud defo say that he would be affected but it wasnt.
