How you see the fight going??
Floyd said after he beats Manny there is still 2 or 3 fights left to do, I think Cotto is one cuz of his following
Cotto = Nice Guy
Floyd = A$$hole
Great matchup
I agree..that's a perfect scenario..
Although if it doesn't happen by 2011..I think Cotto could have an edge..he's like 4 years younger than Floyd..and his legs and speed won't be the same..especially after a Pac fight..
I think if it happens early next year Floyd UD's him..late next year or later Cotto hands it to him..
This guy is right. Right now, Floyd UD easy.
But time is a b*tch to athletes who depend on their reflexes and overall super athleticism.
Cotto should rematch Margo, and stay a zip code away from Pacquiao.
On another note. I cant believe anyone would question Cottos 'dedication' to doing whatever is necessary to win a fight. Cotto isn't the best, he isn't one of the absolute elite... but his heart and dedication are 100%. His losses are due to limitations in his ability... not dedication. If Cotto cant pump the jab out all night it would be because he is limited from doing so.
how so? I think the post your arguing against is spot on, cotto is easily tooken off his game plan as soon as he gets hit with something he doesnt like, in many fights he has abandoned the jab and brawled due to his frustration.
Strange but Mayweather may want Cotto now since he's been beat but a few years ago after a fight he didn't want the undefeated Cotto during a Merchant interview.

Would favour Floyd but i think everyone is taking far too much away from Cotto. He matches up rather well against Floyd. Cotto is a formidable fighter on the front foot, when he has confidence and momentum. He is sharp, fluid, skilled and strong. When a fighter is unable to hurt him, and Floyd wont be able to significantly... he can establish his front foot rhythm get that jab going and work off it with powershots. Cotto is being written off by many based on his recent losses... these losses were to fighters whom could neutralise his momentum and hurt him. I would favour Floyd to win by UD after some real difficulty.
i have been dying to see this fight and i hope it does this would make for an exciting and competive fight especially with steward in cotto's corner, i believe cotto would use his JAB and cut mayweather off. plus mayweather doesnt throw enough punches to off set cotto. cotto by late stoppage or split decision
Went with Floyd UD,I don't believe Cotto has the dedication to pump that gorgeous jab all night,especially against Floyd!!So I see a close fight in the beginning with Floyd just staying strong & Cotto fading!!
