miguel cotto vs shane mosley weigh-in pics

Even though they both weighed in at 146 1/4, Mosley does look naturally more fuller around the shoulders and waist.

If this fight is dull, I'd be rather shocked.

Its usually not a wise move to go against youth and hunger, but Mosley has the edge in speed and power. However, I don't think Mosley can fight at a high tempo on full throttle for 3 mins of every round.

Mosley will not stand and trade from the opening bell, although that depends on how Cotto fights from the start. If Cotto comes out blazing with a high punch output, Mosley will fire back. He's always been that kinda fighter, never one to hide.

Mosley needs to keep this fight at long range from the opening bell. Feint and draw Cotto into the firing line. Lateral movement behind a solid jab, then step in and unleash power shots, then away again. Make his shots count.

I think Mosley will KO Cotto inside 10 rounds.

 

I've seen quite a few times Cotto got shaken, has he ever tasted the canvas?

If Cotto couldn't put more water weight for tomorrow, I could see him go down. It looks like he needs to move up in weight soon.

 

Agreed about the speed, but power, I think Cotto hits a litter harder. Mosley hits hard as well and delivers his shots with more snap and speed, but I think Cotto is heavier handed.

 

He went down against Torres after getting rocked all around the ring in the 2nd round of their fight, but the actual knockdown was more of a push/pull than a clean shot dropping him. I believe that is the only time anyone has scored a knockdown on him. Torres hit like a mule!

 

Mosley looks great and at his age its amazing.

Cotto looks so small i tipped Cotto but now im starting to doubt my pick.

 

He looked significantly smaller than Zab Judah during the weigh in as well

 

I know but no offence to Zab, Mosley is a better more rounded fighter and if Judah rocked Cotto twice im starting to feel a bit shaky on my decision to go with Cotto.

Plus Cotto looks not quite right compared to other weigh ins in the pics of seen him in.

His arms and chest look smaller than at any other weigh in ive seen.

 

They both weighted in at 146.25. Margarito was also 146.25 but Golden Johnson had to remake weight as he was a half pound over 147. Casamayor and his opponent as well as Victor Ortis made weight, Carlos Maussa was overweight.

Wait until tomorrow night and Shane will be around 158lbs and Cotto at 160lbs. Thats what they weighted for their last fights.
