cottos move to 154 was a political move that made sense, he knew he wouldnt win a belt at 147... hes not a natural 154 but neither is floyd, cotto also does well against boxers thats proven! and outweighed floyed in the ring... on top of all this he now has a good trainer who actually gave him a gameplan! it was a good fight and both are good fighters.

most boxers with good jabs land some good punches on floyd...

What was cotto's worst weight?

Who had more war?

Who had more retirements?

Why should his win against a "non-natural WW" JMM mean anything?

Most boxers with a good jab will land on anyone(And that is Cotto's dominant hand anyays). That's a hard punch to take away.

But yeah lol at being hit with jabs = Being Exposed.

I've seen duran, hagler, SRL, Arguello, Finito, sanchez, whitaker, etc.

His inactivity, cherry picks, retirements, ducks are the obvious reason why his legacy is almost legally dead.

Whatever you say, hater.

considering cotto was at his worst weight and clearly 30% of his prime self, Floyd getting hit and his nose bleed definitely his so called skills and record has been manipulated for almost a decade now.

Augustus made him bleed too. Remind me how many rounds Augustus actually won. You're reaching so far, it's really funny to watch. Was Mayweather's KO of Corrales and Hatton blind luck too? Tell us another one, bud!

Since I've been alive and able to watch boxing, I've seen Pacquiao, Hopkins, De La Hoya, Whitaker (but past his best), Lewis, Holyfield, Mosley, Morales, Marquez and Barrera. Hate to break it to you, but none of them are as good as Mayweather.

at his worst weight? he was fighting where he was comfortable. is it floyd's fault that he's too damn lazy to train longer so he can make 147 where he belongs?

and as far as floyd getting bloodied, that's weak dude. i can see if cotto brusied that face up something proper or put him in danger but neither happened did it?
