Mosley to give cotto a licking

**mellow_mood** · 02-23-2009, 10:40 AM

i also see him a lil bit slow... i think it had to do with the ringrust... or that jennings had a better handspeed & footwork than we expected!

Cotto will beat Mosley again....

Mosley beat Margarito, due to styles and a MUCH slower fighter... where the 37 year old shane STILL had a speed advantage, and used it.

In a Cotto fight, hes back to where he was in the first fight... He doesnt exactly have that edge..

Mosley is quicker then Cotto, but it isnt the difference that it was in the Margarito fight.

I think Cotto beats Mosley again.

That's what Mosley thought when he fought him the 1st time only to realize Cotto was beating him to the punch with his great timing. What you saw was Cotto taking his time and walking Jennings down. He wasn't trying to show you how fast he was etc.

Mosley must know, Cotto has his #.

it could be ringrust bro but he must still have mental scarrs from the margarito fight

Well Cotto didn't get a licking when fought Mosley the first, why would it happen now?

Mosley's only success came when Cotto went onto the backfoot. In the centre of the ring he was being outboxed and outspeeded.

Mosley beat Margarito, because he did what Cotto didn't do, which was to hold to half Margarito's punch output. Mosley is still no where near the fighter he was.

Cotto UD.

I think Cotto wins Shane, his jab'll give Mosley hell

but I am curious to see what Richardson's game plan for Shane would be against Miguel

Ofcourse he does, he kinda admitted to that himself by saying he is looking to go back to the old Miguel Cotto (I think he means pre-Margarito). I dont see that affecting a Mosley rematch though, seeing that if its a confidence thing he knows he already beat this guy

what cotto used to beat mosley was the jab and that looked great vs jennings. it seems he was slow because of the way the fight went with jennings jumping around sideways at all times but once cottos hands went loose they seemed quick and his footwork looked great. he closed the ring and cornered jennings very easy
