I will be rooting for Mosley in that fight. Not out of dislike for Cotto, but because I have been following Mosley for much longer, and would like to see him succeed again. Cotto could take a loss against Mosley at this point in his career. Mosley needs this win.
I knew it wouldn't be long before you started your nuthugging. Maybe cotto is giving it to ya, he's a good fighter but you are obsessed with him.
no mosley is actually my favourite fighter along with cotto, mosley and de la hoya are the reason i started watching boxing, i watched boxing from the late 80's but i really became a fan when de la hoya and mosley came to the scene.
I've become a Cotto fan. At first I was annoyed by how he hadn't fought the elite of any division and didn't seem to speak up about whom HE wanted to fight. His team put him in there with a good mix of styles and solid fighters, but he's been pro since 2000 and never fought the elite of any division, very slow for a Top Rank prospect with an extensive amateur background. But now he's fighting Mosley, an elite WW, so it appears that part is over. But Cotto has skills, and throws fluid combinations.
Hey, I'm a Mayweather supporter, and I'll root for Cotto pretty much against anyone he faces. Both of them are very, very good at their respective styles, and, by and large, neither of them don't have problems facing credible opposition. Plus...a fight between them would have the makings of classic. There are a few PBF supporters on this site who slag off on Cotto, but, a few (Pimp C comes to mind...Ring Master as well) seem to have no problem giving Cotto his due.
oh and nikolai i dont think you will find a post where i pick cotto to beat mosley, if you do i'll leave. good luck boy.
Any fighter that puts an ass whooping on Oscar is accepted in the Puerto Rican community. Mosley is one of my favorite fighters as well. But Cotto is getting in that ass like a wedgie. :yep
no he can't do that cuz im werkin on that right now... win or lose he will alwayz be sexy so all u haters that gives u even more reason to hate on him. so ha!!!
I think it is ridiculous. Win or lose, he is a class fighter. I didn't support him upon his rise. I admitted he was a good fighter but people got carried away and started talking about how he was impeccable, invincible etc It was a tad too much. Then people turned on him and I became a huge fan. They started calling Abdulaev close and chinny cos he got stunned. Then Torres and Corley ripped him up. People took these things at face value and didn't see his quality. This was my opportunity to support a quality fighter so I took it. People called Quintana and Judah 50-50 fights, he was even the underdog. They were right... ...on paper! I chose Cotto both and he did me proud. VIVA MIGUEL!
and by the way i have not onced picked cotto to beat mosley, if i did show it to me and i will ask to be banned.
How can you like a guy who drowns baby kittens and gives old ladies the finger? I also heard that Cotto is the ringleader of a notorious squirrel fighting organization. He bathes in the blood of dismembered toddlers, that sick *******!
Of course he has skills, Erratic Behavior, or else he wouldn't be a two division champ and undefeated since year 2000 pro debut, he has the same skills out of the more skillful Ricans such as Benitez ( maybe I wouldn't go that far really to be honest) but he's commited and has improved a lot. The Million Dolla Question here is he skillful, fluid enough to outpunch Shane? Surely not or else Mosley is definitely ova... Miguel is not as fluid/skillful/versatile as the HBO crew label him but he is sufficiently strong and resilient to take over 35 year old Mosley if his sturdy chin holds on once more. I believe Shane will hold on too later on so mathematically Mosley should win due to those fluid boxing skills to be relevant in the early activity.
