I know alot of people dont like mayweather but to be honest he wont get beat. Let me rephrase that he probably wont get beat. Actually the fight between him and Cotto wont even be close. Diego Corrales was a much more dangerous fighter than cotto was and mayweather took him to school.
Let me break down why cotto wont do good against mayweather. First Cotto is going stay infront of floyd the whole fight and for a defensive guy like mayweather thats exactly what he wants. Mayweather is probably the greatest fighter inside the pocket and with cotto style and lack of experience i dont see him doing good at all. Also i really think mayweathers speed and quickness gives cotto alot of problems like zab did in the first round of there fight. Zab didnt have the defense and discipline of floyd and thats why he lost.
Floyd is gonna shutdown cotto and counter him all night. So for those hoping on cotto shutting floyd mayweather up i got bad news for you its not gonna happen.
I always saw Forrest as a nightmare for De La Hoya and think the Vernon that beat Shane in 2002 would have the best chance of anybody in the last 10 years of beating Floyd.
Also, the new guy gets red K for saying anything + about Mayweather. That's how bad it's gotten around here. People hate rich trash talkers.
Im gonna go left field with this one and probable get blasted. But do you think corey spinks could outbox floyd and get a SD. Sounds crazy but he took it to jermaine taylor and a few others and has good D, wont go for a knockout and has alot of boxing skill. I think i could see floyd letting his hands fly since he would respect corey's power and getting the KO.
Calm down newbie.
I'm just bustin your balls...that's all.
Learn to love it.
a wasnt mad. I was bustin ya balls too. I have been posting on all types of messageboards for the past few years so i know that alot of people joke around and to take everything with a grain of salt.
Also in response to a few other posted who replied. Im not saying corrales was a similar fighter or even better than cotto. Im saying coming into the fight he posed a bigger threat. Just think of his destruction of angel manfredy and a few other. Corrales looked like a beast until floyd exposed him, weight drained or not.
to the person who said i was trying to sound smart with the chess analogy thats really the only way i can sum it up without getting to technical and making a long post.
In the end styles make fights and cotto may end up beating floyd. We really dont know either fighters weakness and cotto may expose a flaw in floyd or vise versa. Thats what makes boxing so unique. I doubt it though and expect floyd by UD.
i always thought that forrest would beat floyd.
and i always thought it was suspicious that right after forrest went into the 154 pound class, floyd jumped into the welterweight division, taking it soft

I think either guy could take the other in a close fight. But giv ethe nod to PBF. Cotto can't win the fight without gettin to Floyd's body, and I doubt Floyd wouldn't allow him to do that enough to be really effective. Cotto has the talent to compete wit Floyd but his style works against him in this fight. I'd still love to see it finally happen tho.
Yall killing me with Cotto is a very good boxer and has a great jab shit. Tommy Hearns had a great jab Cotto has a nice jab that shit no where near great.

The reason why Cotto can't beat Mayweather is because of Floyd's defense and the fact that Cotto gases. Cotto threw a lot of punches with Mosley and had to run the last couple of rounds. Also cotto is very mechanical and floyd will figure him out.
Im not a floyd homer but cotto is probably gonna be lucky to win more than 2 rounds. Plus Zab exposed cotto a lil with his speed and quickness. Yeah cotto has the skills but im questioning his patience and ring discipline. I give you an analogy to help explain what im talking about. Fight floyd is the ultimate game of chess where you have to be very smart, patient and discipline. He will fustrate 90% of fighters into making mistakes and then thats when he picks them apart . The only fighters in the game with the ability to beat floyd are hopkins, wright, and roy jones jr. All of which are no were near his weight class. Cotto will have to outbox floyd which you and i know wont happen. I can count of my hand the amount of times floyd has been hit cleanly with a power shot in his entire career.
first bolded - cotto's never been exposed, great fighters don't get exposed, they get hit in the face.
second bolded sentence - no one, i mean NO ONE is more patient and his discipline ... i mean, what do you really know about miguel cotto to even suggest this?
your points on the floyd / cotto fight now is the way i see it as it stands today. cotto is a demon, we'll be better suited to analyze a floyd / cotto fight after the margarito fight. he's fought ALL comers and all styles and hes done great in them. the huge swarming type is all thats left; that guys on deck.

Oh get, the fuck outta here..
You sound like some stupid fuck, trying to sound smart..lol
I've never seen Cotto fustrated let alone get exposed by Zab..
So what, Zab had a good round but was the final conclusion?
