For Mosley, that is. 36 year old fighter, two weight divisions removed from where he started taking the best Welterweight in the world to the edge. The UD verdict against Mosley doesn't really do the fight justice as Mosley was really stalking Cotto towards the end. Looked like he was going to stop him more then once as well. Obviously no ex-lightweight vs Welter king like Duran/Leonard I, but I think it might be more appreciated in a few years.
Yeah, For Mosley it was a fine effort considering how far past his prime he is. i also think it was one of the fights that really showed Cotto was just a decent solid fighter and not befitting the hype around him.
Yeah, good performance, looked even better after the Gomez fight but then got put back in perspective after the Margarito fight. It makes Margo-Mosley interesting because we know Mosley can take a shot better than Cotto and he also forced Cotto to retreat, although not as much as Margo. So it should be an interesting coming together.
Cotto has faster hands then Margarito as well, which will be a relief for Shane. Mosley has great endurance as well and I'm doubting he'll fade down the stretch like Cotto did against Margarito. Seemed like he could have done 15 against Cotto, I think he threw 700 plus punches in that fight as well.
