    Cotto/Mosley is a dream fight! No running and no POT-SHOTTING! This is going to be a all out brawl. I can't wait for this. This will be a treat for boxing fans everywhere.

    :crafty: This is a guargantuan step up from scrub Judah, Mosely will administer a heinous beating on precarious eeyor, the blue paranoid donkey from Puerto Rico,..all hail Roy Jones shadow reserve.

    keep dreaming boy, Cotto is gonna provide a facial surgery to Nosely, and then he'll aim for Hatton after PBF is done with him. :flip:

    Cotto will beat him easily. I never liked Mosley as a fighter, but I can appreciate his willingness to get destroyed by youth unlike all these other old guys, who try to milk another payday out of their washed-up bodies against other old farts. Cotto will stop Mosley in 9/10 rounds.

    It's not his willingness, it's the stupid decisions his stupid moronic wife made for him. :doh:

    Well she wants Shane to retire, if he won't do it, I guess she'll have to do it for him. :lol:

    By the way Mosley TKO's Cotto in rd 8.

    DAMN this is another dangerous fight for Cotto:doh: Mosley is by far the most complete fighter Cotto will face thus far. Props to Cotto for taking this fight.

    I know people say a lot of shit about her, but overall people say Mosley is still a nice down to earth guy, despite all his success. They have five (?) kids, money and make no stupid headlines. I´d say she has been good for him, even if she´s the boss. :dunno:
    Compare that to a guy like Mayweather, who made more money, but has probably thrown away half of it already and will throw away another half for his 50 kids from 34 women.

    Cotto took 11 rounds to stop glass chinned Zab, but he's gonna stop granite chinned Shane in 9-10?:laughing: Keep dreaming!

    If anyone gets stopped in this fight, it'll be Cotto not Shane. If Cotto wins it'll be by decision.

    Cotto will be the favorite in this fight, but I'm picking the upset. Shane is way past it, but I think he has enough left in the tank to pull out one last great perforamance. Mosley by decision.

    It could happen. One's performance against a lesser fighter doesn't mean he can't stop a tougher fighter. Judah isn't so easy to smack on the chin flush, Cotto broke him down and finished him. Judah's chin may be underrated to a degree.

    Why should Cotto be the favourite?...:rolleyes: I think Zab Judah is casting spells in people's heads again,...Mosely knocked out a middleweight, and then shuts out Collazo,.. Cotto had that farce shit fight in New York proceeding his comical struggle with 39 year old midget Oktay Urkal,..

    Shane has 35 year old legs unlike Judah. He faded late against Collazo, Estrada and Cruz. Cotto will break him down to the body.

    Lennox Lewis is contemplating a return to take on Vitali in a big rematch in December. Looks like the year could get even better!:clap:

    I think you guys are forgetting that Shane is one of the best body punchers on this era. Cotto has never even been tested to the body in his career.

    I dont care if Shane is 55, his legs are still alot more sturdy than Zab's, he has a trillion times better chin, and is a billion times mentally tougher.

    But is less dangerous, less awkward, more predictable, slower, more stationary and isn't southpaw.


    It evens out stylistically...

    Both can equally hurt the other with body shots.

    It's going to be an excellent fight. If Shane doesn't get to Cotto in the first 6 rounds Cotto will stop him before the end.

    I'm still on the fence...
