Cotto-Mosley:November 10th???!MSG?!?!

[p4pking]

i guess floyd will be forced to fight the winner..pending he gets past ricky...

this is going to be a war....this is my fight of the year..........mosley by late stoppage

I cant see Mosley stopping Cotto, he hasnt really stopped anyone of note recently other than a shot Vargas.

I see what your saying but I also can't see Cotto knowing he's losing the fight and just fighting to survive the 12 rounds without taking chances to land and putting himself in harms way, like Collazo did... I think it really just depends how it pans out early... It's almost a pick em for me, I favour Mosley a bit.. but if it goes to a decision I see it as a Cotto win because Mosley is tough as nails and can take a lot of punishment.. Cotto on the otherhand can be hurt, and he isn't exactly a crafty fighter who's going to look to outbox Shane, he'll be trying to pressure him and land hard punches. If he's successful he'll probably win but I still couldn't see Mosley not lasting the distance. On the other hand if Mosley lands the better punches and gets the better of the exchanges, I don't think Cotto will survive because he'll keep trying to press harder. Just the way I see it. One things for sure, the loser of this fight will have taken a beating, if not the winner as well.

Great stuff.
It'll be good to see Mosley back in the ring & against such a top opponent!
Can't wait for this one!!!!

I think this fight could show if cotto is the man who could take out mayweather. If he can handle Mosely's spped and come out with a win, he could give PBF a hell of a fight.

Agreed

Mayweather v Hatton was coined on this date too in Vegas, maybe there could be a double header PPV? That would be some night of boxing!

Never.
Cotto-Mosley would be a Golden Boy/Top Rank production, and neither Floyd nor Hatton have anything to do with those companies.

One of these fights will be in November and the other will be December.

I'm not sure, Hatton is a promotional free agent, and Mayweather kinda is as well because he's self represented. I wouldn't rule it out 100%. Would 2 dates a month apart bring in more money than the promotional clout of 4 HUGE names on 1 card? Surely it would at least match PBF v ODLH on PPV buys. Plus they could probably jack up the price to $60.

At 147 this should be a smoker.....IMO Cotto with be his usual aggressive self and win the first 3-4 rounds while Shane feels him out...Once Mosley figures out Cottos timing and rythm he puts on a clinic....It is not just speed that I consider in this..I also consider skill and over all boxing ability......

Make no mistake in no way is this an easy fight for Mosley I just think he will know enough about Cotto by time he steps in the ring to us his quality of opp experience and certain physical advantages to gain the edge.....

Remember the lighter Mosley is the better he is

[Joerod]

I'm torn on who to pick here. Cotto is my favorite fighter currently, but Mosley is fast, powerful and has a granite chin. My heart is with Cotto, but my brain is saying Mosley. This is a tough fight

Definitely, credit to both guys for stepping up. I wanna go with Mosley but Cotto's got that will to win.

Mosley isn't as fast as you guys all make him out to be anymore, and he certainly doesn't have the greatest defense. I don't how you guys can think Mosley wins automatically against Cotto when you don't think PBF does. Anyways this seems a stupid date because if Hatton-PBF happens it will be on nov.10 from what I've heard also Cotto was suppose to fight the winner of Williams-Margarito unless he's angry they decided not to fight him so they could settle the score.

Seems pretty quick to me mate, the only way to find out how quick he is, is to box him, and I certainly haven't done that

shane would school cotto enroute to a wide ud, unless cotto starts getting away with his signature low blow assault that should have resulted in a dq against zab


gotta link??

Read my first post properly,the link is in front of eyes,click it,scroll down to the middle of the page.

I'd like to add you're post is one of the biggest piles of S*** I've read in a while. Go and watch the Judah fight again and watch how much Judah over reacts first and second low blows are part and parcel of the game and finally,it would take at least THREE low blows to end in a DQ.No ref in his right mind would stop after 2,especially not in a big fight.

Until it's signed I wouldn't get your hopes up

Arum knows Cotto wants a big fight and Cotto is his main man,I think he'll do whatever it takes to make the fight. On the other side,Shane knows his time is running out and he needs to make Floyd want to fight him,so he should fight Cotto.

i guess my computer is messed up cause im not getting a link

anyways.............. on to cotto's amaturish tactics

he was on the verge of getting ko'ed very early (and being exposed as the one dimensional amature that he is) in the judah fight on a couple different occasions, so miguel had to throw pride to the wind and let loose a couple savage low blows (making all of puerto rico ashamed of his actions in the process) in order to get back in the fight.

we all saw it

if it took two vicious low blows to keep cotto from getting knocked out by judah, i bet its gonna take at least 5 against mosely in order for cotto to make it past the 5th round

Sour grapes. Cotto Amateurish? He beat Zab plain and simple. What does that make Zab?

No thanks - I like my nose right where it is, thanks!
