    Will Cotto-Mosley II be deja vu?

    I watched the first fight and saw that Mosley did throw those "full body" full forced punches he used against Margarito, and he missed all of them, Cotto always moved back. Each time he was open to a Cotto left hook, but Cotto didnt throw any. Before the 1st, people said Mosleys key to win was to use his speed and jab Cotto to death, but he got beat in his own game.

    Should Mosley stay with the game plan and hope the judges see it the other way around, or should he develop a new strategy.

    See the first 2 or 3 rounds to see what kind of full body full force punches Im talking about, theyre basically the misses that make Shane Mosley as vulnerable to hit as Arturo Gatti.

    Yea people did say that his key to win was to outspeed him but I don't know if you realized that it wasn't mosely's plan at all. As you stated he was throwing rediculously hard body shots early, and actually pretty much the whole fight mosley was throwing bombs and wasn't even trying to box but rather brawl. Despite a poor performance by mosley cotto still felt the heat late and was backing up the same way he was in the margarito fight.

      I thought mosley did enough to win in vegas, but the fight was in cotto's backyard, but mosley needs to adjust the gameplan and do what margarito did, pressure, pressure, pressure. eventually cotto's stamina will give.

          Mosley didn't looked motivated for that fight.
          He was all:
          " I already know how to fight guys like this"
          "I've been fighting guys like this all my career nooo problem"
          "Oh I could train my son i bit"
          "lalalala"

          He wasn't fully motivated nor did he train enough like it seemed.

          In their last fight he found out, that Cotto could outjab him and has some skill.
          I don't think he will make the mistake again.
          Dunno what adjustments Cotto does, but If Sugar is fully motivated he should do better than last time.

            f that...he was motivated. cotto is just that good. but a rematch will be a pickem fight

            like i said before ppl forget just how good cotto was...or still is maybe

            and not all of mosely body shots were misses...but a lot were

            cotto also had really good speed

              I don't see either of these guys dominatin the other. The fight would always be close and winnable by either. I thought SSM would win last time. Doubtful Jennings will do enuf to show if Cotto is damaged from the Marg fight, so we'll have to wait and see.
