    I say Cotto by decision. I do think Nazim has rejuvinated Mosley but only to a certain extent. Mosley looked real good and was able to execute his gameplan against Margarito easily because like he and everyone knows, Margarito comes only forward and has horrible if not NO DEFENSE whatsoever and thats NOT COTTO at all. Plus, it's not like Mosley is the only one improving, and having Nazim in your corner doesn't automatically win you the fight, Hopkins had Nazim in his corner and lost decisions against JT and Calzaghe.

    Mosleys a much different fighter now with Naseem Richardson now he actually uses a real jab,is back to giving angles,light on his feet and throwing more combos. Agianst Cotto he had a terrible gameplan he was flatfooted and looked mostly for one punch. That said I still thought Mosley won. In rematches you have to make adjustments and I think Mosley would have made the proper adjustments plus im worried how much Margarito took out of Cotto its hard to tell by beating a guy like Jennings.

    I don't think Cotto could box any better in a rematch and he sure as hell can't trade with Mosley who has the faster hands. Plus his punch tolerance may have slipped after Margarito.

    Mosley late TKO.

    I refused to make a pick the first time. Now I'll just say I think a rematch needs to happen.

    I'm 50/50 on this one because there are two major questions that remain unanswered: Was Margarito a once in a lifetime type performance from an aging fighter?

    Is Miguel Cotto a ruined fighter after an epic war with Antonio Margarito?

    Until we get more clarity there is no favorite.

    mosley by late ko, maybe at the last second like the mayorga fight.

    2 things have changed since there first fight.

    1)mosley has gotten rid of pops and replaced him richardson.

    2)cotto has been knocked out by margo, exposing his chin and lessening his confidence, and increasing shanes. nas is gunna have mosley boxing wiser and when mosley hurts him late, mosley will step on the peddle and get the ko.

    remember, mosley has been through adversity and survived every time, cotto has not.

    Nazeem will be the difference in the fight if it comes of.

    Shane Mosley's father gave terrible instructions to Shane in the Cotto fight, It looked a totally different Shane Mosley in the Margarito fight.

    Hopefully the rematch comes of.

    Mosley mid rounds TKO i'm going to say.

    cotto is a smart fighter
    he got it wrong in the margo fight, loaded gloves or not he had the wrong gameplan

    but people underestimate, especialy now since the beatdown, he will still improve
    i dont belive he has peaked
    he ring generalship has been getting better every fight (along with footwork)
