    Throw Margo out of this ****. Dude was plastered the **** up. Besides Cotto was winning the first 6 or 7 rounds with this Margo throwing all thos punches. The fact remains that Kat dropped his ass. Cotto is way stronger than Kat and a better boxer. Shane didnt win that fight. It was close but no cigar. Prime Shane beats the **** out of JMM. Cotto in his prime would had been too much for JMM to handle. Right now the shot version of Cotto weight drained to 147 is easy pickings not just for JMM, but have the division itself.

    Shane in his prime at 135 was good against come forward fighters. a 135 version of JMM beats him. Come on dude anytime Shane fought a guy with boxing skill he looked bad. DLH, Forrest, Wright, Cotto.

    I get what you are trying to say but who did Cotto ever beat with JMM's skillset and horrible style match up? JMM is just the wrong style and of higher pedigree.

    You seem to have absolutely no clue how styles meshup against each other.
    By your circular logic that holds absolutely no water we can just say JMM beat Pac who is better than Shane or Cotto so there is that.

    Obviously predicting a fight outcome does not work like that.

    Also who the **** cares who drops JMM? who has ever even been remotely close to keeping him there?
    JMM has a cold chin and gets dropped sometimes, it only makes him far more dangerous.

    Judah is dangerous for exactly 3 to 4 rounds, now think of a fighter that can throw more accurate uppercuts from both wings for a full 12.

    Dead by one thousand uppercts! Cotto is a sucker for those uppercuts and that's JMM money punch, I expect Marquez to beat any version of Cotto he's just not on his level, I just don't see anthing that Cotto can do to trouble Marquez.

    Marquez beats any version of cotto, cotto ain't on his level. Late tko or cotto runs on his typical bike backpedaling and loses to a ud. End thread.

    I see JMM winning but with closer scores, JMM has poor balance and I could see him dropping to the canvas a few times if he ever gets caught but he would tag cotto with a lot of punches and combinations, and expect him to stop cotto late

    the mosely that cotto beat was fairly still close to prime.

    jmm would have little if any chance against prime 147 mosely.

    actually, pretty close to only a lucky punch as shane beats him in every category. jmm wuold be too slow to counter prime mosely so you cant even give jmm that aspect of the fight.

    speed, power, height, reach, strength, footwork, defense...mosely was cottos best win by far.

    people fail to realize how good mosely was because of how far he has fallen.

    Prime Mosely was not faster than Pac, JMM is fast enough and what he lacks in speed he more than makes up for in timing.

    Not saying he could beat Mosely though, but its not due to the speed.
