Mosley has never lost a fight in which he has started well. His stamina has always been sound. Such a tough fight to call.

Mosely for me. By KO.

He'd better start well against Cotto then, or else he is in big trouble.

I remember Mosley fading quite noticeably against Diaz, I thought it was the beginning of the end for him there but to his credit he has performed better since.

I think the battering he took vs Vernon Forrest but still heard the final bell, shows he is as fit as a fiddle. Same with Winky Wright fight.

Absolutely he had better start well. Cause every fight he has had a terrible start he has lost also (including the DLH rematch).

Mosley has always been about rhythm and it appears he cannot gain his rhythm mid way through a fight.

interesting post, stu.

I had him winning the Delahoya rematch on second viewing. I prefered his heavier more telling shots to Delahoyas arm punching flurys and jab

What did they used to say 'they don't score the jab in Las Vegas' - I think you should score the jab but it should be only about as valuable as 20% of a meaty body blow

They say styles makes fights, I simply cannot see Cotto being able to break down Mosely and whenever he has been unable to do that and a fighter drags him into the later parts of a fight he can be wobbled. If Mosely wobbles Cotto, there is no chance he will be let off the hook.
