    Tough luck for Shane.

    Still I prefer the Cotto fight since I have a feeling the catchweight would hurt Shane more than Cotto and it looks like Shane is more willing to agree to a bad catchweight whereas i have a feeling Cotto would try to get a better weight.

    I respect Mosley but waht he needs to remember is that he was beaten by Cotto.

    Some of you guys need to be reminded that Cotto beat Mosley. He ****ing beat him. He outboxed him, he outslugged him, he outeverythinged him. So before you rattle on about Cotto being a horribly flawed fighter try to keep in mind that that flawed fighter faced and beat your so-called complete package. He also beat a number of other very good fighters with those flaws you speak of.

    What a big surprise that Mosley finds this another good business for Arum... Bob Arum promotes both fighters and still will get a share of the money the winner of Pac/Cotto will generate with Mayweather. GBP are not going to make much in Marquez-Mayweather so they are running after Arum to get Pacquiao in there. You see, it's always Arum who holds the best hand of cards here, first with Margo and Cotto, now with Cotto and Pacquiao.

    Okay... who do you think would be a tougher fight for PacMan, Cotto who closely won vs. Mosley and absolutely got KTFO by Margarito, or Mosley, who lost a draw-like to Cotto and KTFO Margarito? Also: who is the true WW champion, Cotto, who lost the WW championship to Margarito, beat Jennings and controversially beat Clottey, or Mosley, who KTFO Margarito?

    Don't be stupid for the sake of argument. Cotto has many flaws to worth take the risk. Mosley isn't vulnerable to left hands, doesn't have stamina problems, isn't easy to rock, showed excellent handspeed lately, doesn't back up when heat is turned on, doesn't get cut and brings a lot more money to the table. Cotto should give Clottey a rematch or face Margarito in Tijuana or call out Mosley, the WW champion. PacMan should either stay at LWW or move to full WW, cut the catch-weight opponent draining crap. At WW, Mosley is the one to beat.

    Make Cotto Mosley, surely that makes the most sense.

    He has earned another shot at a huge fight now. Facing cement gloves in seedy Tijuana doesnt sound like a sane plan.


    Cotto versus pacman is listed an scheduled fight on boxrec now. People say Boxrec isnt a serious site ,so is this fight official or what?

    Cotto-Mosley II for the WW championship.

    PacMan-Floyd for the LWW championship.

    No more catchweight fights.

    Sounds good, then the winners can fight.....at a catchweight.
