    As the date approaches, I find myself thinking more about how the Canelo-Mosley fight will go down than the Mayweather-Cotto fight. I wonder if I'm alone in feeling that way, but I feel that there's a much greater chance of something shocking happening in that fight than in the main event.

    What say the rest of you?

    This.

    Dude hasn't looked great since Marg, and he's pretty shot.

    Dude is just being used as a stepping stone.

    Its a painful thing to admit , but i look forward to seeing Floyd fight probably more than anyone in the world these days , plus i got a lot of love for Cotto

    So its Floyd Cotto for me

    Sidenote ; i do think Alvarez will struggle with Shane :think , which should make for an interesting fight

    Im equally excited to see Cotto.. I also want to see if Floyd comes forward like he did Vs. Ortiz! (Victor was still dominant when he came forward, He had Floyd looking vulnerable on the ropes)

    the Floyd fight

    Mosley KTFO Alvarez will be a bigger victory to me than Floyd KTFO Cotto(e) though

    ha, looking at the poll results so far, it looks like I AM alone in being more excited about Mosley-Alvarez. I just don't see any real path for Cotto to win, whereas I see several paths for Mosley to win. Alvarez is a fine fighter, but he's a vulnerable fighter who has never truly impressed me as being "special". I don't think Mosley is the favourite, but I do think there's a very real chance that I'm going to leap out of my seat more than once during moments of that fight.

    After round three, I don't anticipate that happening with Floyd-Cotto at all.

    Mosley-Alvarez barely interests me at all. Either a faded legend gets beat up by a strong up and coming fighter as is expected, or the veteran somehow beats the young pup and takes the sails out of his career's near-future without being able to compete at the elite himself.

    I think FMJ will obliterate Cotto, while Mosley will pull out the upset over Alvarez, which goes against general consensus, still - I'm much more looking fwd to FMJ-Cotto, because I love watching Floyd perform.

    Floyd is fighting, if you are a fan of boxing, you watch him fight. One of the best to ever do it.
