If Cotto outboxed Mosley what makes you think Floyd wont?

[PH|L]

What's funny is how the same people who were saying that Mosley was shot in 2007 when he lost to Cotto don't like it if someone says he's shot in 2010 cause he's about to face PBF

Alot of double-standards.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

see that *****s. don't get mad and stop complaining about people saying mosley is past his prime. you dip****s are the first to calll mosley shot.

Past your prime doesnt mean you are shot.

Floyd is also past his prime.

Cotto took risks and set his offense up with his jab, but he also engaged and took shots from Mosley as well. He mixed it up with Mosley. Floyd's style doesn't play into how Cotto went into fighting Mosley. He's going to have to take risks to be effective against Mosley, and that doesn't mean swinging aimlessly, but actually letting his hands go and seeing who's really got the speed advantage to outpoint the other.

Floyd won't beat Mosley like how he beat Marquez with Marquez simply standing right in front of Floyd all night.

I think Floyd's going to engage with Mosley in this fight. Watch...

I don't know, I won't ever bet against a fighter with Brother Naazim in his corner. Especially if that fighter is Sugar Shane. That being said, I won't bet against Floyd, either. Floyd's a master boxer, but Shane might be strong enough to bully him around.

1. Cotto fought shane. He came forward something floyd only does on a video game
2. They landed the same amount of punches so where is the out boxing in that
3. No more Jack & that power boxing
4. Shoulder roll don't stop a right hand.
5. Shane is faster & will counter him
6. May 1 = May's 1st

Because PBF is not Cotto thats why!!! Cotto's jab, footwork, ring generalship, smarts, corner, reflexes, punch accuracy, etc is all better than PBF's. So why would anybody think PBF could do what Cotto did?

Yes its major sarcasm

whew! lol
I thought you were serious for a min

Completely different fighters. Cotto didn't just outbox Mosley, he brawled with Mosley, had the power to keep Mosley honest, and took a lot of big shots.

Stop bringing up Cotto as a reason Mosley will lose this fight, that fight is completely irrelevant.

how can a fight be completely irrelevant? If you don't judge who would win on their previous fights then what do you base yourself on?

It was pretty clear that when Cotto got tired and started to stick and move and time Mosley in the last 4 rounds, he won 2-3 out of 4 rounds. He didn't just outbrawl him. He was beating him to the punch and moving out of range before Mosley could hit him back.

It's irrelevant the way people are using it, as if Cotto fights anything like or is similar in any way to Floyd Mayweather. And Cotto did not easily win those rounds at the end of the fight, are you kidding? That's when Mosley made his push because Cotto started to fade.

Just like the people who think Cotto was successfully boxing Pacquiao when he started moving, ridiculous.

You know what I think many people on this forum don't have any idea juts how good Floyd is. They let all the hate threads on the internet cloud their judgement. But Floyd has the skills to make Shane and even Pac look like amateurs. They wont admit it though.

I agree totally.

Most of Floyd's haters aren't even hardcore boxing fans. Most of them have never seen him fight below 140.

Floyd has the skills to shut Mosley down all 12 rounds.
