How do you see Mosley vs. Cotto 2 playing out?

He's a smarter fighter. Cotto continually expended energy and got into exchanges that he didn't have to. And a guy as slow as Marg should have neer been able touch Cotto up as much as he did. Shane has fought forward his entire career he wasn't going to back up after every exchange. With experience comes knowledge. Plus Cotto couldn't have been too smart thinking he could trade with the bigger man on the ropes.he is the more experienced fighter no doubt about it - but smarter ... eh that might be a stretch - when you outbox and outspeed a guy whos supposed to do that to you, i.e. cotto - then you're the smarter fighter.
but the cats out of the bag on how to beat the tijuana tramposo's **** - there aren't that many tricks.
cotto stays on the back foot again and out boxes mosley to win the rematch.Comment

Comparing Mosley fighting Margarito to Mosely fighting Cotto is crazy. Margarito is a 1 dimensional brawler (although he is still great at what he does). Cotto is a slick boxer-puncher. The fights would not be the same.
In the Mosley-Cotto fight, Cotto's speed and boxing skills confused Mosley and screwed up his game plan. Cotto would do the same thing again. Mosley would try to put that pressure on (like Margarito did to Cotto), however it would not work the same due to Cotto's boxing skills. That is not to say that Mosley would not win though. I think it could go either way.
I gotta go with Cotto. It would be a great fight no doubt.Comment

Cotto can beat Shane on the back foot too even if Mosely decides to be the agressor all fight. Watch the 9th and 11th round. The 12th was clearly a give away round.
But there are pople who supposedly give Shane all four of the Championship rounds for some insane reason. So what do I know.Comment
