Why Floyd Will KO Cotto

Cotto's chin got a lot better at 147. I dont know knocking Cotto out, but since Mayweather has enough to make people think twice before throwing. it would be nice to see him in front of Margarito who seem to barely feel Cintron's right hand. That and Cotto not throwing a large number of punches make me think Margarito, might have e better chance against Mayweather... I think Mayweather will be rooting for Cotto in July. I would like for Cotto to throw a bit more punches, have a certified rocksolid chin and not outweigh Mayweather by 10 pounds. That would be a fight for the ages. As it is, I see Mayweather trying to stay away from Cotto (and do it very disciplinedly, given those 10 pounds), succeed at doing it (given the difference in speed and skills and Cotto's low output), and win a boring UD, unless he sees Cotto's chin give in the later in the fight.

very true my man

no he might not ko him but he will beat the brakes off Cotto

He can through a large accumullation. Tzu could`nt drop Hatton with a head shot and Floyd drooped hatton twice. very True.....

margarito is a dangerous fight for cotto margarito's work rate might be too much and he can rock Cotto after a while

yea if you get the whole video min later mayweather came back and stopped him and even though pbf was hurt corley couldnt even put nothing together to finish floyd

Cotto has a better chance of beating Mayweather than most of the welterweights, including Margarito. Margarito's punches are wide so Mayweather would see them coming and counter all day. Cotto was off balance when Malignaggi hit him, he wasn't hurt and his chin has shown improvements since his move to 147. Mayweather was stunned by Chop Chop Corley who also managed to badly hurt Cotto. It wouldn't be a replay of the Hatton fight because Hatton came straight in without his hands up and got hit by counter right hands and left hooks, Cotto is much more educated with his pressure and carries 147 pounds much better than Hatton, I also think he's more skilled than Hatton. The only way I can see Mayweather knocking Cotto out is to do what Judah did, time Cotto with an uppercut when he lunges in.im quite sure mayweather can do what judah did and more

On a serius note both can hurt each other they are elite with great skills so anything can happen.

With all this hype around Cotto /Floyd, I do seriously think Floyd can KO or stop Cotto. It will Floyd /Hatton once again. I'm not sure if it's just the Floyd haters or the Puerto Rican fans that say this out of bias, but I have trouble seeing how Cotto will dominate Floyd after studying his fighting style. For 1, I think Cotto has a relatively weak chin. I remember him seeing being rocked by a very soft right hook by feather fisted malignaggi that sent Cotto a few feet back, as well as being rocked by Corley and other less notable fighters. Floyd , as far as I know has never been shaken in his whole career. No1 so far has been able to throw combinations at him that have wobbled him. They say that Floyd is the runner, but its funny lately I've been seeing Cotto always in the back foot in most of his fights, even against Gomez he kept moving around the ring, and we all know Gomez couldn't hurt Cotto. Cotto is not the pressure fighter that everybody says he is. Cotto is way too slow for Mayweather, his combinations are easily readable,i can so easily see mayweather blocking cotto's combinations when he is up against the ropes, weather the storm, then come back and pot shot Cotto. I can't see anybody at the moment, who is Floyd's size beating him. I think the people that can beat Mayweather are the bigger taller opponents. I think Margarito is the best choice of opponents to beat Mayweather. too tall, too strong, CAN TAKE A PUNCH, and is relentless, and has that long jab to give floyd a lot of trouble. People will never stop at calling out opponents for Floyd. Floyd is just on a different level to Cotto skills wise, and that is the difference.If fighters like Torres and Corley were able to land consistent shots against Cotto what do you think Mayweather will do? You are having wet dreams with Floyd again? LOL

thats what I'm eluding to. Accumulation of punches would lead to a KO. One thing that I forgot to mention is that Cotto would miss a lot with his punches in comparison to Floyd Floyd is much more accurate.I can see all those shots landing and eventually wearing Cotto down.

People think the only way to KO someone is if you have KO power or if you have a great KO ratio but to base it on that is a bit naive, Accumulation of accurate punches can lead to a KO..People said worst about How PBF cannot KO Hatton but thats exactly what happened. Excellent post especially the underlined. People still won't heed this though.

Anything can Happen in boxing YES PBF can KO Cotto.

Floyd wont KO Cotto, maybe tko by cuts or dammage but Cotto will not be on the canvas. no way no how. if Judah's uppercut, or mosley hook's did not put Cotto on the canvas how is Floyd going to? Floyd has less power than those 2. if floyd does not fight the winner of Cotto/Margarito after de la hoya he will loose the respect from me and a lot of boxing fans

corey rocked floyd at the end of the 4th i believe judah and DLH did it aswell but too less effect.no, at the beginning of the 4th, only to be knocked down several seconds later, and he did hit floyd with a right hook towards the end of the 4th round, but he didn't rock him with it. judah stunned floyd and oscar hit floyd with a few jabs in the 6th round, but he never hurt floyd one time in the fight. on the other hand, look at round 5, 11, and 12 when floyd made oscar's knees buckle, now that's serious stunning for you boy.

i can see this happening, but i don't know. floyd is a very methodical fighter, i have claimed this countless amount of times, and he hits harder than people give him credit for, but his gameplan is win thebest way he knows how, and we won't know this until he fights cotto, he adjusts well to any fighter, and he has been rocked a few times by corley and zab, even though the zab knockdown could be argued as him being off balanced, and even though it was a legit knockdown, zab never really hurt floyd in the fight at all, even when he landed the left hand in the 4th, he may have stunned him, but not hurt him, and zab hit floyd with a vicious body shot and floyd took it very well, so he's really never been hurt. when corley hit floyd in th e4th, he sent him to the ropes, he was stunned, but not hurt to the degree of him being in trouble because several seconds later he knocked corley down even though it wasn't counted as such, when it was a kd, and it was a kd in the same fashion cotto kd zab in the 9th round. corley took a knee to catch his composure, so he was never really hurt by chop, but cotto was hurt by chop, but of course chop doesn't know how to finish people off anyway, so whatever. anyway, i could see floyd knocking out cotto, but floyd is human, he can be knocked out by cotto in the sense that anything is possible, will it happen, i very highly doubt it, floyd's defense is the best in boxing, and his accuracy will be too much for miguel. cotto is not in floyd's class skillwise, and has never been. we'll have to wait and see though, won't we?

corey rocked floyd at the end of the 4th i believe judah and DLH did it aswell but too less effect.

cotto has more than puerto rican fans patna.stick to fucking with animals crocodile dundee.

I see yall still placing to much emphasis on power. Both PBF and Cotto KO's come from accumulation of punches over the course of the fight. Yes Cotto has more power but power isn't everything. George Foreman had WAY more power than Ali and Foreman got KO'ed. Many thought PBF couldn't KO Hatton (not a comparison of Cotto and Hatton) look what happened. I would say yes PBF can KO Cotto the chances of that happening might not be very high but yes it can happen.

Floyd could take Cotto on points but he ain't knockin him out. He doesn't punch hard enough, and even if it was by way of counterpunch, Cotto won't literally jump right into a shot like Hatton did on the check hook. And even if Floyd beats him by decision I don't see it bein one sided. Cotto's a tough guy who can beat Floyd, but it wouldn't be easy for him either.
