Floyd was unable to really beat ODLH.
Floyd now has a SD on his record while Cotto's wins are all by KO, TKO, UD.
I would like to see Cotto vs ODLH. Honestly, I did not see Floyd beat this man. I saw Floyd run a lot and end up with a black eye in the process. ODLH did not have a scratch on him.
What'cha think? I don't want to hear about ODLH's wife being afraid of PR fighters. Cotto has been able to stop and or destroy any fighter Floyd was unable to stop and Floyd had to take them 12.
If you're asking who would win,Cotto would wreck him.Shane is at this age,faster,stronger,has better stamina and can mak weight easier,and Cotto beat him. All Cotto has to do is watch out fo the left hook. Cotto by points or late stoppage,IF he gets the body attack going early.
It would be a great fight. It would have to be held in PR. This would be a great going out party for DLH if victorious. This fight depends on the preperation of DLH for the fight.
I'd pick DLH on points, DLH has a much better defence than Mosley t this stage of their careers, Mosly still depends on reflexes he hasn't had for a long time. Good tough fight last night where Cotto outworked a big strong welter, proved he is genuine at the weight and showed a lot of heart and a good chin.
cotto would win by decision, possibly a late stoppage. de la hoya ran out of gas against mayweather who we know had average power, so imagine how tired he would be against cotto, the body shots, strong jabs, hooks would hurt oscar and he would lose.
Oscar has a much better defence than Shane, but he does fade and Cotto is not someone you can fade against. I think Oscar is just as fast as Shane at this point though and his jab is also much better. He would have some sucess but I still favor Cotto by decision.
You think Oscar is as fast as Shane at this stage bro? I have to disagree with that man. He didn't look that fast to me v Mayweather,and even though he battered Mayorga,he was getting tagged by some of his wild shots.Quote:

Mosley is not nearly as fast as he has been in the past and even though he fought well his speed and reflexes have definately diminished some imo. Your right Oscar got tagged by Mayorga but its hard not to sometimes against a guy with that wild a style. Vs PBF Oscars defence was much better.Quote:

I don't know man,I think Shane looked better last night than Oscar did v Floyd. I was not impressed by either fighter in the Oscar Floyd fight. And as for Oscar's D v Floyd,well Miguels offence IS FAR FAR more diversified than Floyds at 147. I just see Cotto beating Oscar down if I'm honest. Prime Oscar would have been different,but now...Cotto all the way for me,and to be honest,the fight doesn't even excite me that much.,Quote:

The truth is older fighters like Oscar, Mosley, Hopkins, Winky, Jones, Trinidad...need to go sooner or later. The sooner the better for all these young guys coming up who havent had the opportunity to get in their position because these old fighters cant let it go and are addicted to the spotlight.Quote:
