    If Mosley deserved a Cotto shot at 154 then I wouldnt have a problem with him facing Manny at 147. I dont want to see either fight.

      Their 1st fight is one of my all time favourite fights, great boxing.
      A rematch works for me too! Neither is what he was but i think Cotto still wins it on skill

          So who wins; well, who has more in the tank, Miguel Cotto has obviously shown a venerability towards fighters that like to mix it up and i think this time RUNNING the last two rounds won't beat Shane Mosley. I think he losses by knockout if he and Mosley were to ever fight again. Shane still has his power and he hasn't taken as much damage in the ring as Cotto.
          I cannot understand why on Earth they would want to put Shane Mosley in there with Manny Pacquiao for any reason other than a retirement payday. I was hoping after he lost 11 rounds to Floyd and IMO fought Mora to a draw, that Shane would do the appropriate thing and retire. Wishful thinking, I guess.

          At this point, I would have to pick Cotto to again defeat Mosley. Almost everybody that has ever beat Mosley has beaten him again in a rematch, indicating how poorly he adjusts to styles and makes adjustments. Cotto is not prime, either, but I still think he beats Shane even more decisively than the first time.

                  deff higher than shane. Already has a win against him, has possible fights with martinez, pacquiao, margarito fights that do more for him legacywise and financialywise

                    He looked good against forman. Way better than shane looked in his last fight

                      i think a mosley martinez fight would be a better fight at 154lbs. Mosley need to try and get a big name win which he wont and sergio needs a big name on his resume. I think the fight works for both fighters
