Who hits harder? Mosley - Cotto

[Imatroll]

wait, is Mosley roiding or clean????

[krispy kreme]

Mosley's power is more explosive, Cotto is heavy handed and his punches look as though they carry more weight.

I'd say Mosley hits harder, but not by as much as people might think. I think Shane's speed has quite a bit to with it, you don't see some of his punches coming.

Also are we talking about the same cotto that took a knee>?>??

i would say cotto does based on there fight

[coufsax]

Shane Mosley won 46 (KO 39)

Miguel Cotto won 35 (KO 28)

Mosley got most of his KO's as a lightweight he was like 32 (ko 30) or something like that before moving to welter I don't know I think they hit about the same. Mosley landed flush on Cotto who some say doesn't take punches well and he was never hurt......

Exactly. It's the way he clinch, throwing few pitty pat punches, and then he whacks you unexpectedly.

Cotto, but you didn't need to be reminded of the winner. But seriously who cares, Mosley getting 30 of his 39 at LW does have a lot to do with his record. Mosley couldn't KO DLH, Winky, Vernon, Cotto, Mayweather. All of those guys up to that point had never been KO'd in their career, Cotto is basically in the same boat. He couldn't KO Mosley, Marg, or Clottey but neither guy had lost via KO when they fought Cotto either... that being said Mosley did KO Marg. I'll give him the nod, but slightly, even if you compare Mosley and Cotto's LW and JWW careers, they had about the same KO ratio there as well. Its a toss up really, they just have different types of power, Mosley definitely has more one punch KO power with his haymaker, but Cottos power catches up with you, its wears you down.

I'll go talk **** to both fighters and I'll be back with an answer.
