~ SSM vs. Margartio ~ Let's talk here!

[C-Lo]

I LOVED the game plan. Countering beautifully when he saw the opportunity, slipping and rolling punches, and closing the distance so Margo couldn't get the leverage he needs to punch with power. Mosley can throw some hard power shots in short range!!

Just cause people are bringing it up, I gave Mosley the nod in his fight with Cotto. I thought it was def a close fight, maybe even a draw. But Mosley came on strong in the last half of the fight and I felt he did enough to take it to the champion (Cotto at the time). IMO, if you choose whether to start strong or finish strong, the guy who can do it during the championship rounds gets more credit. I haven't seen the fight a second time, but if I remember correctly, I had Shane winning a close fight...

Cotto clearly won the fihgt, and came stronger himself at the very end. Mosley was also given credit for a lot of right hands that weren't really landing. Don't get me wrong, he did land his share of right hands, but not as many as Lampley was making it out to be, Cotto was slipping a lot of them.
