    Cotto that's a ******ed question not even the biggest fans of Mayweather would disagree with that. But anyhow what's your point with this?

    Well there getting ready to fight and whoever your picking in the fight, that's an important common opponent(of course you have others like judah but shane is the best of the bunch) because it'll tell you a lot about Cotto's ability to deal with speed and Floyd's ability to a certain extent based on how shane performed against both. Any other question you have?

    Fought was cotto, straight up.

    However the buzz around shane was larger when he was facing Mayweather due to battering marg.

    Cotto. That version of Mosley was far fresher and fighting more consistently. One last great performance a whole year earlier doesn't make up for the time off and the age difference.

    Cotto clearly fought a much much better version of Mosley. Does not matter though. Styles make fights and Mayweather is going to beat Cottos ass really really badly I am afraid to say.

    This is comparing a shot Mosley to a still very game, fast, hard hitting Mosley.

    There are 2 blueprints to beat me. Pressure and speed. You can even order it on Amazon.

    By the same logic I could say that styles make fights because Cotto is all wrong for him based on how he performed against Jose Luis Casitillo, who was a good fighter but no where in Cotto's league and could do everything Casitillo did but better. So it works both ways.

    Some mayweather fans will tell you he fought the same Mosley that fought Margarito. So if that's the case he was still good, if your gonna look at it that way.
