Did anyone pay attention to Cotto's footwork against Martinez? He was a lot more fluid and alive than ever before. Just as the key with Pacquiao's victories against the larger opponents, I think Roach is focusing on Cotto's footwork to out maneuver his opponents and always be in the proper position to throw a shot or counter a shot.
If he's going to go into fights with less advantages in the Middleweight division, I think his footwork will be key to preventing a lot of opponents to touch him and do enough damage to beat him down. As long as he can hit, move, and keep throwing his combinations while staying a float, he'll be able to win decisions more so than anymore future KO's or stoppages.
