    Wow Puga. It is strange to see you actually giving credit for a great performance of FMJ.

    Anyway I do kind of agree with you. Though there may be other reasons has anyone stopped to think that maybe the testing stopped him from doing "things" he normally does for fights? :think

    In case you don't know, they actually fought each other.

    Pac - Cotto. Shane looked like an old man far removed from his prime.

    Cotto was 28 years old when Pac fought him and only had one loss. Cotto also beat Mosley.

    Right but DLH didn't look like an old man?

    Cotto didn't look shot?

    You *******s are just walking balls of contradiction. :lol:

    believe me, i am almost a floyd fan when he stopped hatton but when he choses to retire than face cotto back in 2008, i reserved it. as for the reason why molsey suddenly gassed-out, the testing could be a factor since giving blood and forcing so much urine while training could possibly had an effect on him since he is fighting within welter limit. he might also be over-trained coming into the fight as well. but one thing i'm sure is floyd's performance has a hand in making mosley show his real age.

    Is this a fu(ken series question?

    ESB had the Cotto/Pacman fight as almost a pick em fight. Most thought PBF would UD Mosley.

    FMJ took the same tests though and he looked like a BEAST.

    May fight with mosley was good but Pac's stoppage over Cotto was far more impressive.

    DLH did look like an old man. Cotto wasn't shot.

    Cotto was 28 you fool. Aside from the Margo loss he couldn't be far removed from his prime.

    Lets put the shot fighters argument aside--

    Assuming Shane and Cotto were equal, (battered vs old) Pac surprised more people than Floyd did. So Pac.

    Not even equal. Your comparing a 39 year old with 5 losses to a 28 year old with 1 loss.

    Cotto still looked good in the Pacquiao fight until he got beaten up. Shane looked like an old man almost from the get go.

    That didn't stop you *******s for saying it was a great win.

    You think age is the only factor in a fighter being shot?

    I swear man EVERY post you highlight how much you DON'T know about boxing. :yep

    I don't think Shane was ever shot. OLD? Most definitely. There's a difference.

    Example. Erik Morales. at 32, is he old? No. Shot? Absolutely.

    All things considered, Cotto.
