    Shane paws his jab. Its the major reason he gets into trouble against guys like Winky and Vernon who both have effective jabs. If you can't see that maybe you should watch more of his fights. Shanes strenghts are his combinations and power punches, not his jab. He uses it more often then not to set things up.

    Just like Ricardo Mayorga knocked out that overrated mofo Forrest in 3 rounds smoking cigarettes by the dozen.

    But I thought he was put to sleep?

    :lol: It was a US based referee man.

    Cotto's left hook is his signature punch, but to imply he doesn't have anything else in his arsenal is being silly.

    if you have seen some of cotto's recent fights he doesn't rely on the left hook much any more, its all about the jabd and southpaw straight left.

    I wish Mosley went into the fight with that line of thinking. It would be an easy night for Cotto.

    Your about right. The main reason Shane will win is because he is a tough mother****er...you better remember that.

    Cotto is fighting him b/c it will help make a name for himself for the general public. Also, while it is a fact that Mosley is not in his prime, he is still one of the top dawgs out there. There really arent any better options for Cotto out there that will help move him to superstardom.

    Cotto is walking into the toughest fight of his career. If fights the same style he usually does, he might get KO'd out!!!!

    Cotto is my 2nd favorite fighter behind Mosley. That being said, I go back and forth on this fight, but Molsey will win. Cotto's only chances are his toughness and wearing Mosley down and winning a UD, I don't think there is any way he can KO Mosley. Mosley on the other hand has the speed, the size, and throws alot sharper punches then Cotto, and Cotto is there to be hit all night. Cotto's chin will be tested this fight and we will find out if his weaker chin at 140 really had to due with his weight loss and ear drum issue.

    Mosley 7th round KO

    I can't imagine Shane loosing. Not knocking mister Cotto...he's a very strong and talented fighter, but he is pretty much easier to predict. He has an asenal of punches but he's always right in front of you pressing forward.

    Shane is too quick to let a plodding Cotto corner him...at least not for the majority of the fight and the speed will be a HUGE factor along with Shane's power back at 147. He was a very powerful puncher when he was at 147 and I think we'll all see the power come back when he returns to his best weight class.

    I see Cotto getting KO'd....if not a UD for Shane. But I think Cotto will be the man to beat in a couple of years. Right now Shane is too much for him.

    I love Mosley but one thing I ask myself is why would Cottos people put him in there unless they were sure he could win? Miguels career has been brialliantly guided, he has been given stepping stones at exactly the right times to progress logically. They know more about boxing than I do.

    With my heart, Im saying Mosley by 12 round decision. But with my head I can say neither man is going to get knocked out, cuts/facial damage or more likely, a headbutt. Mosleys biggest concern has to be having enough stamina to go a hard 12. Cotto's biggest concern will be dealing with someone who can body punch just as good as him for a change.

    Nothing would surpise me in this fight.
