You wouldn't know it by listening to these two jackals calling the fight. "And a hard right overhand shot by Mosely that...hurts Mosely! Man, Cotto's awesome the way he can attack Mosely's fists with the side of his head! Cotto young strong bull! Mosely's mouth is open! His lungs are on fire! Cotto almost ko'd him in the middle of the last round with his fiersome, steely stare!"

With all the weirdness in boxing these days it’s good to go back and watch actual no bullshit fighters.
I miss this boxing what an awesome fight
Cotto was always one of my favorite fighters.
Two of my childhood heros. Mosely has one of the smoothest leaping cross/hook I've ever seen. Cotto has really great foot work.
The Best of The Best! The Great FIGHTERS, respect for BOTH
Two great boxers in their own right, a hard fought battle to the last bell.

@@nassiglutt6587yup at welterweight Floyd Mayweather did not fight guys unless he's seen a chink in armer... People don't realize he wasn't trying to fight guys at there best cotto, Mosley ,Manny Pacquiao, Oscar de la Hoya but Oscar was bigger so I'll give him the benefit of a doubt there.. he fought Canelo when he was young drained him made him get down at 152... And then there's guys like Paul Williams and Sergio Martinez that were fighting at 147 to 154 at the time ..he flat out didn't fight them.. so yeah that's why people that watched him give Mayweather his respect but won't say he's the best of all time and put a Astrid next to his name
Cotto is the prototype of Tough, always has been. Shane & Miguel are both super nice guys out of the ring too, quick with a smile and always willing to stop for a picture and a word to fans. Great fighters and reps of Boxing.
I met Cotto in Person one hell of a nice guy

Great fight, just hated the somewhat bias from the commentary. Assuming a warrior like Mosley is getting discouraged because you don’t see Cotto show effects was irritating. He was 36, battled to the final bell like a warrior.
Those uppercuts that Shane was hitting Cotto with were great, but his defense was lack luster...that's been his issue. If he had good defense and not waiting...it could've been a different story. Cotto is a LEGEND

What's funny is in his old age of 36 fighting a 27 yr Old man these announcers never say the fact that Cotto is hitting Mosley with right hands and not fazing Mosley at all.From the beginning of the fight they only talk about what Cotto is doing.obviously They were told to do this.the judges r corrupt as well as the announcers . greed for money has destroyed boxing

Gotcha😊
i atually thought the announcers were biased. A lot of the punches they were raving about from cotto either missed or were grazing. I had the bout a draw because i had mosley winning rounds 2-5 and 9 and 10 for certain. He could have won the late rounds as well because Cotto was on his bicycle
Both of them are discipline and fierce fighters,no trash talking.
Shane just had a jaw like Canelo Alvarez
Much appreciated love 💕 to all the memories of the family 😊 of champions
Absolute classic.
Amazing Scrap
This was where cotto really began boxing more instead of search and destroy slugger and he out boxed Shane. Which was a bit of a surprise. His finest performance imo.

People commenting how GOOD Cotto fought .. when in FACT .. it REALLY speaks VOLUMES on just how GREAT Shane WAS .. This obviously over the hill Fighter took this YOUNG GUNNER by almost 10 years into DEEP WATERS and had him TREADING WATER ( Cotto LOST Rds. 9 - 12 Folks ..Sorry NOT Sorry ) .. don't get this shit TWISTED .. Shane SHOULD'VE Won but Cotto was HOME on P.R. Parade Holiday so the judges and Annoucers ( BEGGING for us to BELIEVE Cotto Won SMH LOL ) decided to TAKE ONE from Shane .. DAMN SHAME .. GREAT Fight tho .. KUDOS to BOTH Warriors
Great fight! This is before that dude completely destroyed Cotto. I mean not just in the boxing ring. In my opinion, poor Cotto was not as good a fighter after being mauled by that cheater. I believe that cheater mentioned about himself numerous times as being a great Mexican fighter.
Turn the sound off so you dont get influenced by the Cotto fanboys

Look at Cotto he was a different fighter before he fought Margarito the cheater.
shane always fought like a guy from the 40s
Mosley fights better when he feels he is technically superior to his opponent when he gets outsmart or counterpunch he gets frustrated and starts head hunting for big shots
Great fight 👏👏👏
Fans are more impressed with a fighter personality then there skills
영원한 나의 영웅 더 챔프 미구엘 앙헬 코토!!!

Разве это бокс. Одни обнимашки, один убегает, второй догоняет. Только и ждут когда гонг прозвучит.
Mosley ya estaba en la recta final de su carrera y asi y todo le dio gran batalla a Cotto.
One thing, I can say about shane he was nice power boxing for a natural light weight he was nice fought the best through good combinations from different angles side to side movement NICE
Mosley had such a tough career. He rarely got in under fair circumstances. Always jumping weight or older and coming down, short notice etc Mosley at his best might have beat many of those that beat him

Nobody is saying this fight was not close, i dont think. Any fight with Shane Mosley is trouble. He was the real deal. His two wins against De la Hoya were close too. The only time i saw Shane give up was in the fight with Pacquiao. He suffered a knockdown (first time ever?) in rd 2 or something. Look for interview clips of Shane sitting next to DLH talking about Manny's legacy.
So mosly knocked himself dow in the 12, great fight !!!
