Prime Shane Mosley vs. Miguel Cotto at 147?

gonzo is another one of those who became a boxing fan after seeing floyd on mtv cribs, he is a freckled face white boy from somewhere like ann arbor michigan.

 

a prime Mosley doesn't weigh 147, so the question doesn't make much sense.

Also, Cotto may not yet have entered his prime

 

also think that the mosley that fought dlh would have traded more with cotto and thus gotten himself into more trouble than the mosley that cotto fought who didn't trade as much

 

That Mosely moved in and out of range quicker than this one though... a near prime Oscar wasn't able to hurt him and I dont think Cotto would of either.

I dont remember a prime Mosely really "trading" perse, but his high punch output made it appear as though he did at times.

However, I think for the most part it was strategic for him, as he could move withing range and get off 3-4 punches to another fighters 1-2 (like the first Oscar fight). But I don't qualify that as trading.

 

Yea, so? I ahve watched alot of old tape o Shane Mosley and I can tel you he never had the best defense oout there.

 

Which fights?

 

I've probably seen about half his fights on tape.

 

Such as? And at what weight class?

 

Basically every fight this millenium except for a few, and I have see him against Jesse James Leija, Wilfredo Rivera, John John Molna, and Phillip Holiday.

 

I'd pick the Mosley that fought DLH in the first fight to KO Cotto..

 

Then you should know that his activity, body attack, combination punching, and fast hands and feet served as his defense.

 

I'm not saying Shane isn't a very good offensive fighter, but his defense has always been vulnerable. You're making it sound like I'm saying Floyd would absoulutly dominate Shane.

 

Well, this was your first post on the matter:

"Mosley's defense is not that good and Floyd would be able to

. Just look at how many times he was tagged by Cotto."

 

Mosley does not do against defensive fighters look at the wright fight for that one. But i think a prime DLH would easly beat a prime mayweathers. It would be perfect for him. More stamina and floyd is a 1 or 2 punch fighter not big combos. Thats why mosley beat him the first fight, The second fight DLH was robbed
