Back before the Handwrap fiasco that made Miguel completley change his style of fighting and cometley abandon his vicious left hook body/head attacks. I would be one of many who thought he would be the one to give Floyd a great test and probably a loss. Now I understand Floyd/Miguel already fought but that was clearly not the seek and destroy, Left Hook ripping Cotto I was referring to. That was the Miguel who was more of a cautious boxer puncher who was less than impressive against some opponents in that 4 year span till he hooked up with Freddie. Roach has said on many occasions that he didn't want to make Miguel do anything new he just wanted to bring back the " Miguel of Old". And he has done just that in his last 2 fights and what's even more impressive is that he seems to have improved Miguel's endurance as well since he seemingly was not getting tired vs Martinez and was constantly moving. But to sum it up at this point id like to see Cotto vs Floyd 2. ( Don't forget Floyd said that the "hesitant" Miguel was his toughest opponent ever, and Jzust imagine how good the fight would be now)
