JMM fight is where I really noticed for the first time. Floyd still has many little movements to confuse his opponent though.
Are you kidding? FMJ has a crap first few rounds every fight he goes out just about with a live opponent. Mosely was live. Manny didn't fight SSM because he was scared. If that wasn't the case he could have EASILY substituted Mosely for Clottey after he established he was a "beast" at the weight. Cotto beat Mosley by BOXING him. So the question is not really if Cotto beat Mosley, but more "Can Manny beat Mosley if pure boxing him is taken off of the table?" Judging from Manny's lack of answers to Clottey? Probably not. BS. If half of the people in street fights lost their lives nobody would EVER street fight. Boxing is a sport, but you don't "play" boxing. If you doubt that go to a boxing gym and sign up.
Please. Has lost his legs? He has spared them. Did he even need them against Shane or even the counter punching Marquez? No he did not. Therefore he lost them. Pretzel logic. As dumb as he is in some aspects of his out of ring life, he's a pure dissector in the ring. I think him a dick actually but that does not have anything to do with it for me.
It is simply known that Shane is a monster at 147, at 154 the dude doesn't perform or puts as much fear at higher weights. It's unfair to say Shane is shot, some say Cotto is shot... You could always make excuses. Example. Cotto brutal fights Mosley, Margarito, Clottey. Legal problems, scuffle with long time trainer, new trainer, divorce and lawsuits, who is in charge in camp, the fight at 145? Cotto tough fight with Clottey, huge cut, needs time to heal. NO lets make the Manny fight now. OK no time to rest, but remember weight limit at 145. Is his mind in boxing now. who cares Freddy and Arum say. See what I mean. Very unfair.
