    umm pac destroyed cotto, but not the same cotto that beat mosley , cotto hasnt been the same fighter since the margs loss nor will he ever be , its the same fighter just in name.besides when cotto beat mosley he barley did so he was gassing out and running away towards the end.and mosley was landing heavy shots. pacman certainly did duck mosley, even roach was quoted as saying" we dont want mosley because he is just too good" pac beats him now because hes old , but not a prime mosley, stylistically its a bad matchup for pac.dont try and re-write history dont say pac didnt duck mosley, when pac is fighting a guy mosley destroyed in margs, its safe to say pacs team handpicks these fights. im not saying pac isnt great just that theyd rather play it safe.

      Obviously, Mosley is old! No wonder Floyd beat him convincingly!

        You are probably the only person that thinks that Cotto was the same Cotto after Margs. Margs took his soul.

          Not to start a Pac-Floyd war lol but how was he pressing the action? Mosley was just standing there and Floyd kept throwing 1 punch at a time and just wouldnt commit to a combo.

            I thought Mora won that fight. It was ugly but Mora's movement was ridiculously good. He did what he had to in order to win on the defensive end, but offensively I think he had more openings than he thought. From the first round Mosley was open to be exploited by Sergio's quickness. A jab, a ****ing 1-2, anything would have worked.

              i agree that the mosley/mayweather fight was better than tonites mosley/mora fight...but then again, the mosley/mayweather fight had both fighters throwing less than 500 punches each the entire fight...so wasnt really an exciting action pack fight, just a decent fight is all it was...tonites fight was doodo

                in my eyes, none of these guys deserved to win tonite...no passion, no desire to win...just was there for the stinkin paycheck

                  Mosley-Mayorga was an ugly fight to. Shane doesn't handle awkward fighters very well and since he has no jab, he has to rely solely on his right hand. It really wasn't there tonight for Mosley.

                  I was hoping Shane would pull out the money card and put Mora away, but it wasn't until the 10th round when both were really landing shots that did any damage.

                  I was still entertained by the card. First 3 fights were very entertaining

                      He was in the fact that he wasn't backing up and dodging punches like in his last few fights. He was the one actually backing Mosley up while standing there with him. He threw a few combos but not as much as I would of liked. I'm not a Floyd fan, but I do admire his skills. Other than that dude is a freakin idiot. He needs to step up to the plate and fight Pac. Are you gonna watch the Pac-Margs fight?
