Mayweather is a master at taking away his opponent's left hook. Mosley didn't even bother to throw the left hook, and Oscar's was blocked from the very start. Cotto isn't one-handed though, he has a very strong right hand but he rarely uses it. The only punch Cotto may land consistently is the jab, but that would only trigger Mayweather's pullcounter. At most, 5-7 punches a round? I don't know.

Less than 15%, but I would be interested in seeing Cotto's timing with his jab though...

Cotto would find a way to connect some on Floyd.

Cotto's got serious defensive flaws, but he's a VERY accurate puncher with a fairly complete offensive arsenal.

However, Cotto would start getting tagged with Floyd's right over his jab. His connect % would go down every round.

Cotto does have a decent drop step with his jab though which could help him out with Floyd's counter straight right.
