This will be sold as a megafight and great competitive matchup, but all it truly is is a feeding for Cotto. Cotto by late TKO or lopsided decision with Mosley taking a beating. I have no doubt though that Mosley will make it real interesting at times and be competitive, but I just dont see him being consistent enough to keep Cotto off of him all night. If David Estrada was able to catch Mosley with plenty of clean shot, Cotto gives em a beating.

Mosley by UD

Could be, because Mosley is a great fighter!! If Cotto beats Mosley hes definatley proved himself as an VERRY good fighter! But Cotto has chances to win this fight because he has physicall advantages and a verry good punch, maybe he can stop Mosley late. I doubt he can win on points though. But who knows?

THANK GOD!!!!!!!!! I've been waiting to hear it get signed and sealed....reading the Cotto boards he seemed to have wanted a little more money. I hope Arum pays him. Cotto UD Mosley. NOVEMBER 10 CANNOT come soon enough. Great fight, great year.

No it not signed they have a problem with Cotto promotios company and Arum they said that the offer is no so good and they stuck with this problem. Source [Only registered and activated users can see links] another puertorrican news papaer but more acurate.

Can you imagine if the two bouts were on the same card? That would be brilliant. However, won't happen mate!

I want to go to MSG to Cotto vs Mosley, who's up for it? This one has the potential to be a *******!

Cottos slow start will take a toll, so Mosley will sweep the first few rounds.

7-5 Mosley UD

Tu papa
08-09-2007, 10:10 AM
You know when this fight will be signed? Right after PBF vs RH is signed. Mosley will not sign to fight Cotto unless PBF is unavailable. Im sure Mosley would rather fight PBF. It is more money to him, and he knows he could lose to Cotto. Mosley, as great a fighter as he is, is one of the smartest and most humble people in boxing. I love the guy.

Cotto is his second choice. So he will not fight Cotto untill he knows 100% he cant get PBF.

Amen brother!:| I am so happy, I could cry. I am extremely new to the boxing community (only seriously a fan for about 1 1/2 years), but ESB has helped me so much in learning the sport from every aspect. I have never seen or heard more knowldgeable articles, point of views, factual arguments, on any TV show or site better then ESB. I actually hardly ever post anything, I just read what you guys write and learn a ton. Thanks for everything fellas (ladies)!:good

Shane by tko no one else has said that one and i think it can happen, people forget Shane can Bang at welter and will be more fluid then Judah, However he has the same problem as Judah were he cannot adapt if things are going wrong so my other one is cotto tko.

Both newspapers are owned by the same people.

Yes and the endi.com news about Cotto wanting some king of garanties before signing the contract is from yesterday afternoon I believe.

So the article saying that it is signed is more recent. Again both newspapers are owned by the Ferre Rangel family.

Mosley UD in agreat fight. And if he does lose, NO WAY he gets TKO'd. I wonder if the people predicting that have ever watched Mosley, or are just so hyped on Cotto that they think he will TKO everyone.

Cant wait early fight of the year candidate. I am huge cotto fan, but this is gonna be a tough one. Cotto SD. Would love to predict/see a KO/TKO, but neither man has ever been KO'ed and both have only ever been down once. Should be a good non-stop brawl.

I am not ecstatic about Cotto-Mosley.

I am a big fan of Mosley, Cotto and Hatton and I do not like them to fight each other. I just want each of them to get a shot at PBF, especially Mosley.

Cotto is in his prime and too strong for an aging Shane. I'm afraid Cotto stops him around 8 or 9.

Actually I have never read anything in endi or primerahora that doesn't turn out to be true. Remember that most of their news about PR fighters come directly from interviewing them personally like this time. They have access to them almost every day.

Because Pone's people are arrogant and think Ponce is better than everything else. They have a say ''Ponce es Ponce y lo demas es parking'' meaning ''Ponce is Ponce, and everything else is just parking space''

I give my condolensces to anybody who gets in the ring with Cotto.Cotto is a great fighter no doubt. But he is going to have more trouble with Mosleys speed than most think. People assume Shane is just going to let Cotto waltz right in and rip on his body. C'mon now. Mosley is a vet. I see Mosley sweeping the first 5 or 6 rounds and then surviving a late charge by Cotto to take the UD. That's only if Mosley doesn't stop him before 8.
