      And about the punches, you can make the case that Mosley is a harder puncher, but it's hard to base it on the Tony fight because Mosley had everything behind his blows while Cotto was always going backwards.
      Your right but you still have to take into consideration. SSM is bigger and overall stronger then Cotto. Not to mention he is more durable. By the way, ALOT of people disagreed with me and Red K'd me when I told them Cotto never sat on his punches against Margarito. That wasn't Cotto's full power

      Atleast you seem to agree...so yeah it might be possible for Cotto to do the same

        How convenient it seems that everyone is caling tony a cheater & all the Cotto fans have the most convenient excuse in the world to erase Migurel's loss. Truth off the matter is if it is still under investigation...nuthing has been found. & just like this fight & every other. someone fromthe commission & the opponeents team views Tony's hands being wrapped & there has never been a dispute in the FIFTEEN yrs he's been a pro.

        No one is beating up Shane for ADMITTINGLY using roids. But everyone is a shane nutthugger suddenly. Shane fought beautifully Sat. He finnally found a trainer who could put together a strategy that compliments his strengths...until then shane has been fighting like a slug. no jab..no combos....no movement...nada.

        No matter wut u ****s think aout tony's style & try to call him overrated. The fact is he climed his way to the top w/ limited athetic attributes & a whole lotta heart. Nothing has been concluded or connfirmed so until then he's not guilty of anything. & ther's no way in hell anyone can go back & speculate cotto fight or any other. there are mad pictures here of tony's hands w/ his gloves off after the fight w/ miguel. Like tony Miguel got his ass Whooped. Period. & I love all 3 of them It hurts me to see any of em get battered. It's a sad sight. But tony won't e the first or last to have to climb out of the basement ot get back to the top. Ali did it. Frasier. Loenard. herns all of them. Everyon gets beat when u face elite competition. & all u guys trying to say cotto was cheated. He still had to be hit & form wut I remember he got hit a whole lot. His style just doesn't match well against tony Especially that croutching forward...succeptible to upers all night long...

Have a ref that won't allow Mosley to hold and Margs wins of course he'd also have to have a plan for the body shots but i see Margs winning a rematch which will probably never happen. But i belive he'll beat Cotto again. I was down on Margarito after the fight having seen it on the computer is not the same as seeing it on tv and as a Margarito fan i'am satisfied with his performance knowing it was Mosleys body punching and excessive holding that won him the fight against Margarito. Just take the holding away and its a different fight. And funny how Mosley fans say holding is part of boxing, but with excessiveness as Mosley used. To summerize Arum don't care about Margarito but Margarito want's that Cotto payday.


          Remember all the bitching about John Ruiz and most recently Ricky Hatton?

          Now they want the tactic used when its against a fighter they hate.

          Hypocrites.

            The lie detector test proved in fact that he didn't know what he was taking was performance enhancing drugs.

            Dude lie detector tests aren't 100 percent accurate. Comon now, if someone told you to inject **** into your body, and told you it isn't steroids...wouldn't you be kinda iffy about the stuff??

              Yea I remember you saying that. I think I disagreed with you too(def not red K that **** is for *******), but after re-watching the fight you're definitely right about that. Good call.

              I just want to see Cotto-Mosley because they're so evenly matched from strength to punching power, they're styles clash so perfectly.

              Cotto-Mosley 1 is one of the more underrated mega fights of the past few years.

                Cotto was potshoting on his back foot. Mosley was hitting Margarito with full force punches. Watch the Judah and Pinto fights, and youll see Cottos full force punches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                Cottos hands are heavier. I love how everybody knows think Mosley hits harder, that Cotto based on the Margarito fights.!!!!!!!!!1

                  IN what way did it benefit Mosely in the 2nd fight against DLH? Not only did he lose that fight....HE LOOKED THE SAME By the way...Lie Detector Tests are 97% accurate. Thats ALOT

                    This isn't based off the Margarito fight. To me Tito was the hardest punching WW, then SSM 2 hand power and DLH based on his left hook. SSM is a really strong dude and I do agree with you on Cotto nothing sittin on his punches against Margarito. Look at my post on top

                      They aren't 100% percent but they are 90 something percent accurate.
                      You add the fact that they make you take them three times and I'd say it is pretty accurate.

                      Everytime you take a test they ask you the same questions 3 times in different order.
