Shane Mosley statement about the upcoming bout
“Cotto is no slouch,” Mosley said in an interview with Boxing Scene. “Cotto can fight as well, and Mayweather better take him very seriously.”
“It’s a great fight. Floyd has the better boxing skills, but Cotto is no slouch. If you take Cotto for granted, then something else can happen and he could be the victor of that fight,” he added.
Cotto is coming off a victory against Antonio Margarito and took the bout against Mayweather instead of accepting a rematch against Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao.
