Will Mosley struggle with Clottey as much as Cotto did?

    Shane fought a bigger and better version of Clottey (his name is Winky) and fought him pretty close in the rematch. He knows how to fight that style much better after those fights and not only that, but Clottey is missing the most important tool to beat Clottey. A jab.

    Forrest, Winky, and Cotto all have a very good one Joshua doesn't use his. And he won't get use to using it consistently in one fight.

        clottey actually has a very good jab..he used it against cotto quite a bit..it all depends on who hes fighting..like he fought corralles and margarito completely different to the way he fought cotto..i gurantee hes going to be using his jab quite a bit against shane

          Oh, and Shane has ****m in his corner, which means the gameplan will on point. Mosley will be letting go some ill combos in this fight, 2 or 3 pitty pats, followed by 2 hard shots in sequence.

            He might have a good jab, but he doesn't use it consistently enough to beat someone like SSM. The jab was/is Forrest and Winky's primary weapon and it Cotto turned into his. He'll need a very good one to pull this off.

            And against Cotto he didn't use it 'quite a bit'. He stopped after the first few rounds and was closing distance behind his shell and throwing short left hooks and uppercuts.

              If he gets cut like Cotto did than he will. Clottey has a defense similar to Winky's and we saw how that worked on Shane. Clottey is a live underdog in this fight.

                I could be wrong, but I think Shane handles him with ease. I see him stepping around and throwing fast combos before Clottey can get set to punch. Mosley by wide UD.
