    In a year or two will people look back and say that Cotto beat a shot Sugar Shane and use that argument to discredit the win?

    I think so.

    Well Mosely is 36. It's not like boxers are exactly at their peak at this age. It's not like he's on Hopkin's level or anything. Only special athletes like Hopkins can continue to dominate at that age.

    I also think it will happen but I think it should happen, to put the win into perspective. A win over Mosley now is a good win but lets get is straight he is far removed from his prime and if Cotto is gonna be great then he'd damn well better win it.

    ppl who think Mosley would beat Floyd at this age are bonkers. And I'm no joy boy.

    I have already questioned the validity of all the "Shane is still a top level fighter" before he even signed to fight Cotto. So just so everyone knows, if Cotto beats him, unless he STOPS him, I am going to question it. I didn't think Mosley looked great in beating Collazo.

    Nobody is as old as Hopkins. Hopkins is 42, Dawson is 25. Put Dawson in their with a prime Hopkins and see what happens. Please stop hating on the living legend and show some respect.
