I'd love to say that I was lookin forward to this one too...but unless I was guaranteed a Cotto win...well...you see where I'm comin from, right?
I want this one to be over. :frusty:
Wack, i no exactly, every time my man Hatton fights im in a cold sweat....
I was nearly Hyper ventilating before the Tszyu fight and in the mAGEE and Collazo fights i was between vomitting and crying!
Still it's great top have one favourite active boxer (unless thats Zab!)
Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
I've been picking Mosley the whole time, but I really just don't know. I think Mosley skill and experience wise is in much better shape in this fight. I don't think he's old, but I tell you Cotto could sure make this guy old in this fight, and Cotto will be up for this fight more than any other in his career, so this definately won't be a sleeper fight. Mosley will have to hurt this guy alot and finish him, cause Cotto will keep coming all night. I'll stick with my prediction and go with Mosley by k.o. in the upper rounds.
Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
Shane may have the advantages in most areas but I still go for Miguel. He has been relentless at 147,his stamina has gone up ten fold from 140. I don't think SSM can take the pressure and I also think Miguel will see how Shane has been beaten/troubled before and use that to his advantage.
Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
Just thought I'd share this.
World champion Miguel Cotto today weighed 151.5 pounds - far under the limit - at his seven-day safety weigh-in mandated by the World Boxing Association. Cotto weighed in before a horde of fight press during his Media Day today in Caguas, Puerto Rico..........

Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
I'll be cheering for Cotto - I like him, he's a great fighter, he's humble, and he has the potential to be the future of the division; but Mosley is like no one Cotto has ever faced. Arguably the 2nd best fighter in the division, he'll be the toughest test in Miguel's career by far. With Miguel's at times leaky defense combined with his somewhat suspect chin, and SSM Mosley's speed, accuracy, and experience is all going to add up to a long night for Cotto (or maybe a short one if Mosley gets to him early). My pick is Mosley by TKO.
One thing I don't think Cotto gets enough credit for however is his smarts in the ring. He often looks like a rugged brawler, but in the Zab fight (and others) I think he showed a great deal of smarts in the ring and hopefully that will serve him well against another very intelligent fighter in SSM.

Same here; when Pavlik fought Taylor I was wound as tight as a drum. I wanted the undercard fights to last all night cause' I was so nervous. Then when Pav went down in the second I literally got sick to my stomach. It's great having a fave fighter, but it can sure make the ulcers start forming in the belly. When Hatton/Mayweather comes I'll be a raving lunatic. ;D
Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
I'm backing Cotto to win personally, but I'm sure that Mosley will force him into a good workout at least if not more. Your RBR's are getting on the forum earlier and earlier Wack.....but I guess recent weeks haven't given you too much to work on really.
Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
Its a tough fight to pick but I'm about as certain as I possibly can be that its gonna be a very good fight.
Mosley doesn't really try to outbox people, he's definitely not gonna run all night. There will be some nice exchanges. That part could worry Cotto fans cause Shane's faster and Cotto's been hurt before by being caught in the middle of an exchange. I don't think Shane's a huge puncher by any means at 147 but he's not feather fisted either.
Still I'm thinking that Cotto comes on late to win a decision. At least for now that's what I'm thinking. Should be an awesome fight, actually anticipating this one more than Floyd-Hatton.

Mayweather v Hatton is probably the bigger event but I DEFINITELY think this will be the better fight.

I think Mosley will have Cotto in trouble at some point but whereas Cotto has been let off the hook against lesser fighters Mosley will polish him off.
:coolclick: Very well stated & to the point as usual...I have to say that I totally agree. Mosley will polish him off if given the chance. I hate this shit...for real.

I feel ya. Honestly though...the only Hatton fight I thought was "sweatable" was the Collazo bout. That was a nerve wracker...but you gotta admit...Mosley...he's tippy top dawgy lawg!

:coolclick: Christ almighty...I hope that your'e wrong...an early to mid round knockout will destroy me...& most likely Cotto's gonna have issues recovering from a loss of this nature.

:coolclick: Pretty much knew that you'd be here. I applaude ya babe. You got more faith than I do. Ya done Miggy proud...now let's just hope that he can do us proud...because no shit...I am mortified at the possible outcome of this bout.
I hope that your'e right about the pressure issue...but the men that pressured him had a lot more abilities than Cotto & a much tighter set of defenses.

:coolclick: I agree that Mosley is like nothing Cotto has ever faced...as far as Cotto's ring credit...it depends on the Cotto that shows up.
The safety first Cotto...I'd give him a shot...that's the Cotto of the first 20 or so matches...the Cotto that wants to be Tito...I don't give him a shot in hell against Mosley...& honestly...subconsciously...I find it hard to give him a shot period.

:coolclick: I hope that Cotto reads this RBR, because there are enough believers here to give him a shot in the arm...I wish that I could be one of ya's...but I aint gonna lie...I skeered shatless for me guy.
I used to put the DRBR's on 2 weeks in advance so that everyone could hash it out prior to the bouts. You'd be surprised how many of us shifted our opinions back & forth. I'd throw my hand up as one of the guilty as charged! ;D

:coolclick: Yeah...I wanted to see this one pretty badly until the outcome started coming into me brain & that it could be in Mosley's favor.

Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
CC back Wack. To quote you and Gamo: "Mayweather v Hatton is probably the bigger event but I DEFINITELY think this will be the better fight."
"Agreed here...but I aint so sure that I think this fight will out shine Hatton Mayweather."
Depends on what you call a fight, because I agree with Gamo about Cotto/Mosley being a better all around fight, whereas I see Mayweather/Hatton being a borderline mugging without the felony charges, with Ricky being the victim. That's why I'm so nervous cause' I'll be happy if Rick makes it 12 rounds.
Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds Cotto vs Mosley
Gotta go with Cotto in this one by late KO. Shanes getting on a bit and will probibly slow up a little down the streach if Cotto sets a high tempo early on. Body shots are the key for Cotto and keeping his chin well protected. Should be a great fight but in my oppinion the Mayweather fight will be a better fight as i favour technical boxing over explosive wars.

:coolclick: I keep sounding like a broken record on this note...but I hope all these people ridin' Cotto's jock are right!!! Unfortunately...I won't be swayed. I think Mosley's gonna be too much for me guy.
