Cotto vs Mosley @ the Garden in November...
Not sure if this has been addressed yet…I’m sure that it has…but this is one fight I am SUPER excited about!!!
Miguel Cotto vs. Sugar Shane Mosley!
http://www.fightnews.com/fightnews_2...lNHpXiAwz.html
Miguel Cotto faces three-time titleholder Shane Mosley in November at the Garden.
Cotto: "Shane is a great fighter but he will not be the better fighter on November 10. I will be leaving the ring the same way I will be entering it -– undefeated and still world champion."
Mosley: "Cotto is a great fighter, but so am I, and we're going to light up the Garden on November 10. I don't think I've ever been more excited for a fight. I can't wait to get in the ring and get it on."
Anyone got a pick or thoughts on how this one pans out?
Personally…I have no clue. Being a massive Cotto fan…I’d like to think that Cotto handles Shane…but Shane’s fast as fwock. If Cotto were to pull this one out…I’d honestly be shocked shatless.

Shane walks away with a lopsided UD in his favor.

Hey Wacky, Judah was fast as fwock too and arguably, none come faster than "Super." I think Mosley will suffer the same fate as Judah-TKO'd!
Re: Cotto vs Mosley @ the Garden in November...
Wacko i can tell you im so excited about this fight i like both guys equally its speed vs power i hope its like Chavez vs Taylor Thunder vs Lightning but not as one sided any fight with Cotto in it will be entertaining and Mosley has exciting style aswell im going with Mosley by decision but i think Mosley will be dropped in the fight but pulls out tough decision i think this fight will be the most entertaining fight out of Kessler vs Calzaghe and Hatton vs Mayweather i think Mosley's style and Cotto's style are made for eachother meaning it will be a great fight i think Cotto will be rocked a hell of a lot in this fight and i men alot i got nothing bad to say about either fighter gl to both mean and may the best man win.

Judah was putting on a clinic until Cotto unleashed a flurry of low blows and elbows, and I think that Mosley is a lot better that Judah.

Agreed...Judah was fast & I gave him a shot, even though I'm a HUGE Cotto fan, but the difference in Mosley, Judah, & Cotto is that Mosley is a pretty good size for his weight & he's shown a good bit of career resilliance against some decent fighters on the comeback trail.
I'd love to see Cotto ruff Mosley up for a win...I just don't see it as being likely.
Mosley's got a massive wealth of experience & Cotto will be the smaller man coming up...even though Cotto's plumped up a bit...I just think that Mosley's a bit more sound in the ring than both Cotto & Judah.

I totally missed that...although I am sure that Judah had to be admitted to a clinic shortly after the match. ;D

He had one and half good rounds i hardly call that a clinic he wobbled Cotto but it was Cotto's pressure that was too much for Judah and broke Judah down physically and mentally.

KO-RECT SIR!!!
:coolclick: Well stated & dead on the money.
Judah couldn't stand toe to toe with Cotto & the low blows, while unfortunate, weren't the deciding factor of the bout. Cotto flogged Judah like a dead horse & that is that. While Judah had spirts of success...there wasn't a pattern or sign that he was headed for anything other than the beating that he was handed.
Re: Cotto vs Mosley @ the Garden in November...
Comparing Shane to Judah is plain hilarious. And Zab's speed did cause Cotto problems...and yes...Cotto's low blows combined with Judah's complete lack of a mental game...lead to a Cotto victory. Breaking Zab down don't mean shite...he is almost programmed to break down in his fights. The thing that amazes me is that some folks seems to forget that Cotto has a suspect chin. He has been put on his butt by much less fighters/punchers than Shane. Shane isn't just fast...he is STRONG, experienced, and has has a great chin. Shane has had problems with rangy fighters who have a GREAT jab. While Cotto has a decent jab...he doesn't have the length of a Forrest or Winky. And i find it funny that some people think that in WAR...Cotto will have an advantage. Shane can bang...he will have speed, power, and footwork...combined with a strong chin. He can come at angles and he can go to the body. Unless he grows old in this fight...he will have too much for Cotto. Should be fun while it last though.

:coolclick: back bro i didn't see any difference in the way Judah was fighting but i did see Cotto switch up a bit and started landing a very hard jab Judah always has started good in all of his losses problem is he can't hold it together mentally Cotto's pressure was too much i give Judah credit for showing guts i thought he was gone in the 9th but managed to last another 2 rounds but overall Judah took a beating end of.
Re: Cotto vs Mosley @ the Garden in November...
Call me crazy, but I think Cotto can hold his own, even if Shane tries to put on a clinic. Cotto has a very underrated jab, and I think he could box with Mosley. If Mosley is as careless as he was against Collazo and doesn't commit to his punches he is going to be in trouble. Mosley was real busy against Collazo, but he didn't sit down on enough of his shots in my opinion. Mosley is strong as hell for a WW, but gym strong and ring strong are two different things, and Cotto is a beast in there. I like Cotto by TKO in a rollercoaster type battle. :)

Cotto was only put down once and that was a push and he was in there with a banger Cotto was very green and has got better since that.
I think your underrating Cotto's power Cotto hits damn hard and them body shots are the key to taking the steam out of Mosley's legs lets see how often Cotto is able to get to the body because that then will tell us was kind of fight we will have.
Re: Cotto vs Mosley @ the Garden in November...
And it gets better guys Maybe just maybe Juan Ponce de Leon will face on the same night Juan Manuel Lopez "Juanma"
;D
Re: Cotto vs Mosley @ the Garden in November...
I'm saying cotto by decision, but its gonna be close if it comes down to the scorecards (might be looking at a SD).
