    this fight is a 50/50. but the wear and tear that cotto buts on his opponents is brutal . allot of people r saying Howe Mosley is going to use his speed and ring generalship and his experience and this can happen. but cotto brutal style of fighting freezes fighters makes them gun shy i think there is a strong chance that Mosley feels this kind of presser and starts taking a pounding starts showing his age starts to slow down and gets TKO late in the fight. but anything can happening in a fight like this.

    I've been going back and forth quite a bit on this fight. It's really a pick 'em fight. If Mosley was in his prime, I'd pick him easily, but he's in his mid-30s and has to have lost at least a step. The question is, how much?

    Cotto has proven himself to be an elite fighter, although there are some questions surrounding him to. Were the Corley and Torres fights indicative of a shaky chin, or were they result of fighting at a too-low weight. So far, it seems the first - but questions remain about his punch resistance. He's faced top level competition over his last few fights, but Mosley is the best guy he's faced so far.

    It's a tough choice, but something tells me that Mosley's superior skills, and punch resistance, will carry him to victory in this fight, probably by a late stoppage.
