    You mean this?

    It's your opinion, nothing more. You can say Shane was only 50-50 against elite, but you make the assumption ALL elites are the same. Does Cotto do anything similar to Forrest or Winky, the only two guys who beat him? That was rhetorical, no need to answer, as we both know that's an astounding NO. Cotto has neither the stiff jab of Forrest nor does he possess Winky's size and defensive capabilites. You seem to think you make these great points, but they are things people who don't know boxing would say and think make them sound smart.

    I pointed out Cotto is a pressure fight, which presents no real advantages to Shane.

    Combined that with the primes argument and came to the simple conclusion Cotto wins.

    And Cotto has a stiff jab, when leading with his power arm. Cotto is going to just walk him down, keep landing a few punches. Cotto's power with increasingly take its toll as the fight goes on.


    I cannot see an equaliser Mosley possesses. He has lost some speed and is not particularly fleet footed. All he has is a very nice reach advantage. I don't believe he will make that count, Cotto will be close. Cotto survived Judah's attempted onslaught, I don't see Mosley finishing him.

    All in all, it appears a very safe bet.

    I also see Cotto win this one - no one has found an successful counter to Cottos mauling ability. However, I do think that the fight holds merit. Mosley is not down yet...

    Can't blame this idiot for going crazy about a big Calzaghe fight, the last big fight he had was Lacy and nothing before or after that till Kessler decided to pick up his 2 belts and go to fight Joe or this fight wouldn't have happened.(Same scenario for Lacy)

    He's anti-American too the extreme. Damn there every post the guy makes is talking **** about American fighters and dissing on Americans.

    ESB letting racist bigots post freely on their message boards does nothing but make ESB look less credible in the boxing world.

    Nah, he singles out Americans. He disses American fans, Americans, and American fighters.

    Go ahead and ride Calzaghe's **** all he wants, but his anti-American **** takes it too far at times.

    Americans are a race?:lol:

    Do you mean to say that he carries an 'insulting nationalistic bias'?
