Miguel Cotto won a unanimous decision over Mosley back when Mosley was less ancient.

Makes you wonder if the same substance found in Margarito's glove before the fight was what helped him do this to Cotto...
Margarito could have used brass knuckles and he
would not have beaten Mosely. Personally I think it
has a lot to do with styles. Margarito comes forward
way too much against a puncher like Mosely. Mosely has
trouble against boxers/movers and long guys that have good jabs
and use their height effectively to keep distance ala
Vernon Forrest. Margarito is a long brawler. Wrong style.
Dont think you will see Mosely longing to
fight Paul Williams. Definitely the wrong type of guy.
