Mosley vs Clottey is Done For December 26 in LA

[Gabilan]

We'll never know that part, but it's pretty clear that the "cheater" had Cotto's number all night long regardless, and possibly will again if they meet for a second time.[/QUOTE]

I don't know about all night long man. Look at the fight and Cotto was connecting consistently (to the face instead of the body which to me was the critical mistake in that I feel Cotto was going for the KO) and winning the fight on the scorecards until the late rounds. The thing is that Margarito took everything and kept coming and once Cotto was cut up it became impossible for him to go on due to the fact that he was swallowing blood. It was a brutal TKO but it's not like Margarito embarrased Cotto. It just seems that way because of the finish.

Yea thats very true, cause margarito did the same thing to another fighter i like, kermit cintron. I mean props to cintron for goin back for seconds, after that first asswhoopin, but he just had his number just like he does with cotto. I didn't know marg ko'd sergio martinez back in the day either, had to find out thru boxrec.com. He was a good fighter, but mosley had his number..just how the game goes i guess......kinda like forrest beats mosley, mayorga beats forest, then mosley ko's mayorga. i love this sport!

*** yea, mosley got this, itll be a great fight. i like clottey too he has a lot of heart. what other promoter is doing good things for boxing and free fights unlike money hungry arum. way to go gbp

[philb]

Yea i'm gettin tired of Arum and his wack PPV's, i don't know who pisses me off more, him or the clowns that buy his fights, i mean seriously how many of ya'll plan to order the chavezjr vs lehoullier fight? or lopez vs mtgawa....he just seems greedy to me "babysitting" his stable of fighters...

merry christmas boxing fans , hell geeeaa

if anyone is the better "boxer" its clottey..mosley doesnt really "box" you..**** anyone fighting margarito looks like their "boxing" him cause he has/had no defense and just kept coming forward..clottey is a whole different ball game..i think you will be shocked come fight night

Same here. Cotto outboxed no defense mosley and Clottey outboxed Cotto. But Shane is going to out box Clottey. I realy want to see what Clottey bring to the table now. Yes, he had a long layoff before he fought Cotto but still could have won that fight. Cotto was able make Mosley look like a punching bag.

Your statement is idoitic as fuck. I don't even know why I'm taking the time to reply to this. How did Mosley look like a punching bag when he landed more power punches than Cotto did and Benji Esteves had to wipe up a wet spot on the canvass in the 10th round to keep Cotto from going down from another one of Mosley's bombs? Cotto looked like a cab driver in the late stages of the fight except for the 11th round. I had him winning that, but that was the only one. And he shot his load in that round and didn't have anything left for the 12th. Mosley practically chased Cotto out of the ring in that round.

Why do u take a fight with a guy coming off a loss to a guy that wanted to quit in the ring but he couldnt finish the job in lieu of fighting a real champion in multiple divisions?

SSM is a fraud like the rest of the WW division!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope clottey catches him early and puts his hypocritical azz away for good.

[Iceta]

Some of these Cotto stans were claiming Mosley was ducking Clottey like Emalo29. I wonder what they have to say now. Big ups to Mosley for taking this fight from me even though I am still kind of disappointed in Shane for not taking Paul's challenge.

For good? Shane has never been knocked out........
