if so why?
from what ive seen Castillo was a bigger threat IMO & Mayweather did have trouble but still won, what makes Cotto different?
oh yeah Casstillo definatley has the better chin of the 2
Cotto is better in every way, apart from in-fighting which is still close, and the chin thing is very debatable, cotto has been hit by 140-147 pound fighters his whole career, castillo mainly at lightweight.
Cotto is the biggest threat to floyd mayweather in the ww division, his hand speed is underrated, and cotto has a pretty good defence, although i think floyd would probably still take a decision as floyd would use the ring and his speed, and cotto is a little slow on his feet in my opinion but would be competitive and it would be nice to see floyd have to dig deep which i think he would definitely have to do against cotto
umm number one, Castillo's chin is superior, number two Castillo has been truely ko-ed once against Hatton, o by the way the Hatton fight was the first time he fell to the canvas EVER IN HIS ENTIRE CAREER. Castillo's resume is better then Cotto's cuz he has the better names for his weigh class then Cotto does for his minus the Mosley win.
The only reason I'd give Cotto a better chance to beat Floyd then Castillo is cuz Castillo is a slow starter whereas cotto can usually go the full twelve.
Either way Floyd is gonna be a hard opponent
truely koe'd once by hatton?corralles smashed him.

Castillo was the FAR better inside boxer.
Castillo was better at cutting off the ring.
Castillo had a better chin
Castillo had some vicious uppercuts and hooks.
cutting off the ring,cotto beat paulie ,quintana,pure boxers.
castillo has been ko'd,cotto has not
cotto entire offense is awesome.
castillo got knocked out by corrales and yes corrales is a big puncher at 135 but i'm not sure if he is as big a puncher as torres at 140
Corrales was top 3 Hardest hitting boxers P4P, easily. The fact that Castillo didn't even go down from those bombs amazed me.

Also use search button a little bit please. You'll realize Hatton had a just as good hype, just like Cotto is and everyone and their mother cept Mayweather fans and decent people (which are not the same all the time) thought Hatton was going to win and more interesting: ALMOST ALL COTTO FANS WERE HATTON FANS BACK THEN.
This leads to one and only one question: Should we listen to bandwagon jumpers?
talk about blatant lies and propaganda.

Cotto is more skilled than Castillo, has more power, is bigger, and is faster. He might not have as good a chin, but Mayweather is not a big puncher at Welter, nor does he put punches together like he did at lower weight classes, nor can he likely take the same level of punishment against other Welters if they can get through his defense. Cotto applies intelligent pressure, is very consistent, and can switch up his game when necessary. Hence he is a bigger threat than Castillo.
he has been stopped...a few times
One Ko from a body shot.
One tko due to Corrales being a beast.
The rest are due to cuts, 2 of which were against a guy that I knew in Guadalajara, Javier Jauregui.
Cotto hasnt been stopped 3-4 times like Castillo was prior to the fight.
Cotto has more power and is just an over all better fighter then Castillo.
That's not really accurate or true. Please complete your post with the who's who for both of them and vs who was Castillo stopped. Cotto is not really a threat and can be skipped as such by Mayweather. He would make more money in other matches, it is true and you know it.

this guys thinks he knows it all and then spits bs like this.....apparently if you cut easy as fuck, you have a bad chin:ugh:
