Cotto because he's a great fighter and I'm a huge fan. I also think it would be better for the sport in the sense that SSM is older,he's not going to carry on for much longer whereas Miguel is young and could be a potential superstar at some point.
Do I really need to vote?
Cotto all the way my 1st prediction when the fight was in the horizon was Cotto TKO and now that the fight is closer I stand by prediction and say Cotto TKO.
I've seen this guy develope throughout the years from a robotical body puncher, to a pressure fighter, to a boxer, then tactical body puncher, to what we see now. Before in his very early fights all we saw was body punching, then he swtiched it up a bit and boxed more then he started the body pucnhing but more tactically and with a plan. Now we see straight rights followed by hooks to the head and body, double jabs and ring movement. I remember when Cotto won his 1st title agains former WBC lightweight champ Cesar Bazan who IMO was Cottos 1st step up in class test. Cotto showed he belonged there in that ring Bazan tested Cotto after Bazan was down early in the fight Cotto probably thought easy win here but nope Bazan bounced back and thru 11 rounds until Cotto just punished him to the body.
Can't wait for Nov. 10th it's gonna be great.
Something that caught my attention earlier.
SSM is 2-0 vs. Puerto Rican fighters and hes TKO'd both guys.
SSM is 3-1 when hes fought at MSG but remember they changed ring now so it's not the same ring.
(Collazo is of Puerto Rican decent but he was born here in the US so I didn't count him)
sik fight m8 but mosley 2 gd a 2 fast 4 him m8
Even though I'm not a fan of his, I'm going with Cotto. Only because a Cotto vs. Mayweather fight would be a better (more exciting) fight than Mayweather vs. Mosley.
Plus, Mosley is kinda getting up there in years and I would hate to see people take away from Mayweather fighting (beating) Mosley using age.............. like a lot of people did with Oscar.
Having said that, I still think that Mosley wins this one a lot more convincingly than most people think it's gonna be.
Mosley by UD, with an early round knockdown to boot.
I am probably missing something Frozen, but how can he have a UD and an early round k.o.Originally Posted by frozensolid_702
Anyways, I'm going with Mosley, even though I know as far as the future of boxing Cotto is going to be a star and all that. I just like Mosley a bit more, that's all, and when it's said and done I really don't care. I still will stand by my prediction{though I'm always wrong} that Mosley will win by k.o.. I had said Mosley would do it late in the fight, but really now I think he will have to do the damage early and get Cotto out of there or late rounds he'll be in trouble. So 7th round k.o. for what it's worth.
got go with miguel times gonna catch up with mosely and its gonna hurt when it does!!

This will be a close fight. Both fighters are class acts. It will come down to how much Shane has left. I always feel that speed kills power. Shane has a clear speed advantage. As far as power....while Shane isn't the knockout artist he was as a lightweight...at 147...he is just as strong as Cotto. That leaves the intangibles. Experience clearly favors Shane. Shane has the better chin. The big advantage Cotto has is that he is the younger fighter...which in turn could mean he has more stamina. If Shane doesn't grow old in this fight...i just see him having too much skill and athleticism for Cotto. But if Shane cannot handle Cotto's pressure and looses gas...then clearly the younger Cotto will prevail.
I like em both and as most of you know by now i don't root for anything but a good fight most times. I would give shane and edge due to his speed, foot movement, and experience.
Hidden Content Click clack ! Give up the purse.........or yetti will find you.
I pick Mosely by UD or real late tko. Cotto just isnt my cup o tea. He is a bit dirty IMO. I noticed when Zab had some momentum and was picking up on him, he immediately reverted to his dirty shots. Dont tell me that low blow didnt have a big effect on the fight. Cotto may get DQ'd because its gonna be hard to rough up Shane he knows all the tricks.
