Do you think the Cotto that fought Pacquiao was better than Mosley that fought Floyd?

    Again making excuses to try to diminish a fighter and make the other one look greater. It really is disgusting how some of you guys get down.

    First of all anybody who watch the fight knows it was close between Clottey-Cotto. It could of gone either way.

    That is like me bringing up that a washed up Mayorga went life and death with Mosley. I can easily say that Shane didn't look elite at all in 2 of his last 3 fights as well.
    u get my point then.....

    btw. mayweather-pacquiao, it all comes down to a RESPECT thing with you guys.

    there is really NO ARGUMENT as to who looked better in their previous fights, cotto going into pacquiao, or mosley going into mayweather? most ppl would agree, mosley looked better before fighting mayweather. no argument there.

    so that leads me to pacuqiao vs. floyd.

    manny is viewed as dominant, great, non-stop, all action, etc.....so when he dominates an opponent, in your minds, it just underlines his greatness....

    floyd is viewed as a ducker, runner, coward, etc.....so when he dominates an opponent, he still doesn't get the credit. you guys look at his opponents and make excuses as to WHY mayweather SHOULD HAVE WON. with manny, it's the opposite. you guys look at HIM after a victory, and praise his greatness.

    not fair, and you dudes need to be more objective. that's why i appreciated merchant's and steward's comments following the fight, b/c they looked at mayweather, and gave credit to his skills. too many dudes on NSB, do the opposite. you guys acknowledge his skills, then downplay them at the next moment. **** has to stop.

    look, there are already threads being made as to floyd being "bigger" than manny. so manny is so great, but the excuses are being put into place, so if mayweather DOES beat him, we'll look and say manny is smaller....

    at some point, you have to look around, and say, "who can floyd fight and beat at this point, to receive credit?"

    IMO, he'll have to move up and fight guys like abraham, dirrell, ward, dawson....

      Both, is just as impressive as they dominated the top WWs. Stop the bull****...
      this ^^^.


      only problem is, there weren't nearly as many ppl downplaying manny's win over cotto, as there are downplaying floyd's win over mosley.


      just look at the poll results.....

      before the fight, there were threads posted as to who would win today? mosley or cotto? the threads overwhelmingly favored mosley.

      mayweather dismantles shane, and now the answer is 2-1 in favor of cotto.

      NSB dudes are funny.....

        I can easily point out that Shane was a year older than the last time he look great and was coming off the longest layoff his career. I mean that is a fact right?

        I can easily say that Shane had back-to-back training camps that he peaked to early he left his fighting in the gym. I mean their were reports before the fight that Shane was struggling against Richardson son. That he was getting beat.

        I can ask the question on why Shane got so damn tired so damn quick when there was OST? He didn't get tired that quick against Vernon or Winky. I mean he was already breathing hard at the end of the 4th round. Floyd wasn't that amazing that early to have Shane that tired. And, lets not forget it was Shane who refused blood testing against Judah. But, accepted it when he got the largest purse of his career.

        The way you guys are doing with Cotto. Then all this points that I am making should be valid too. And, should be taking into account if you going to take the Cotto **** into account.

          I remember reading a lot of stuff about Pac being on PED's with Cotto, about Cotto being shot being ruined by Margarito. about Cotto being weight drained due to the catch=weight.

          A lot and I mean a lot of people especially the majority of Floyd fans. Down played that Pac win. Not all Floyd fans but a lot and they still down play it. Just like not all Pac fans down play Floyd win.

              you can also easily point out that mosley fought on 2 rounds tank of gas and was throwing loose punches

                  the only argument i hear against shane, is his age....

                  hopkins is older than roy jones, but will anybody say roy is the more quality win right now?

                  the answer is no.

                  b/c roy has been beaten to **** recently, and although past prime, hopkins has looked better than rjj.

                  what you are doing, is grasping at straws, as to why mosley could've possibly looked ineffective against floyd.....

                  1) 38 - FACT
                  2) layoff - FACT
                  3)peaked too early? - guess
                  4)affected by drug testing? - guess
                  5) beaten in camp? - guess

                  cotto v. pacquiao

                  1) cotto was beaten down in 2 of 3 fights leading in - FACT


                  see what i'm saying?

                  guys will dig, and dig, and dig for anything to discredit floyd for beating shane.


                  manny beating cotto, big difference. notice, i never even mentioned the cotto being forced to make 145 ****.......

                    wrong, my dude...

                    that PED **** didn't really catch fire until manny declined the tests.....

                    until then, it was all "**** talk."

                    manny declining those tests, gave those rumors life.
