Cotto has no chance whatsoever at any time, he's simply not good enough or gifted enough to even be in the ring with Floyd and everytime he gets close to the fight he gets his ass whooped. How come Cotto never called Floyd out? Why did Cotto's promoter call the "Pre-Margarito" Cotto too green for Floyd? If "Pre-Margarito" Cotto was the best version doesn't it speak volumes that his ower (Arum) called him green and not ready? If that was as good as he got and that was too Green then it's not crazy to just assume any version of Cotto gets humiliated Vs Floyd.
Thank you, thats exactly what I was gone put. Cotto is a good boxer he just isnt ready for mayweather. Physically cotto is too slow, his arms are too short, his defense isnt good enough, his footwork cant cut off mayweather, and he doesnt hit hard enough. Before the margarito fight cotto didnt believe himself that he was ready for mayweather.
I want to see the fight so mayweather can show emmanuel steward that he cant come up with a gameplan to beat mayweather so he can stop the hating. But I would hate for it to have be cotto that he proved it on.
24/7 would be FUNNY as SH*T!!!
Zab doesn't have the defense & chin to cope with Maidana's pressure & power.
But can maidana cope with judah's speed and power? Mentally judah sucks but physically judah is at the top with some of his natural ability. He is one of the hardest hitting WW, he hits harder than margarito, mosley, pacquiao, and clottey. And that is coming from miguel cotto.
Since floyd supposedly ducked people like margarito, clottey, or cotto. Can someone please tell me the date that they were lineal champion at WW?
Because from my understanding floyd fought gatti for his wbc super lightweight championship moved up to WW fought mitchells for a tune up then fought judah the former lineal champion at WW then beat the person that beat the lineal champion. Exactly what date was margarito or clottey lineal champion in any weightclass? And cotto never called out mayweather and bob arum said that cotto was too green for mayweather. How can may duck somebody that doesnt want to fight you?
So when Manny switched his style from a knockout artist against Hatton and Cotto to a machinegun against Clottey, he lacked verstility?
He didnt switch his style, he just kicked it into high gear just threw as many punches as he could. He knew he wasnt knocking clottey out and he could barely land a clean shot on clottey so he just threw a whole lot of punches.
So you're saying Cotto and Marquez box better than Manny? Are you kidding me? Manny pretty much proved he boxes better than JMM simply by outboxing/destroying Cotto and Hatton.
He didnt outbox JMM he out punched him. He made cotto fight his style and drowned him. And hatton has never been and will never be a boxer. He is a wrestler, if he cant tie you up and punch you he doesnt have a chance.
So EX, if you put Floyd or Manny in SRL's shoes in the Tommy Hearns 1 fight, who do you give a better shot at making a comeback?
If I needed a knockout and there was no other way that I could win I would probably choose pacquiao, other than that I would choose floyd.
Baldomir isn't a feather fist man who likes to get hit in the face.
Paulie has speed, Zab can match it. Paulie can't hurt Zab. So, Zab won't get discouraged.
Zab wins.
Paulie has a chin and speed but before Zab's layoff he was the fastest WW and hits the hardest according to cotto( whose blocked many punches with his face from the best WW).
Zab, despite his lay off...Paulie doesn't have the power to hurt Zab and unless paulie gets mercante to allow him to hit low, Zab whoops his ass.
Two left hook bombs to the nuts didn't help either.
Dont forget the headbutt.
that's your opinion. people who's job it is to critique fighter's legacy has placed manny as the most most accomplished fighter in the past ten years..
And those same people hate floyd mayweather's guts. Any writer that has bragged and said that mayweather would get beat by such and such but when he wins they make up excuses as to why he won, should not be considered credible writers anymore. 80% of the writers would be gone especially after the hatton, judah, gatti, and the mosley fight.
The facial expressions and backchat of these women bear an uncanny similarity to the shell shocked flomos' scrambling and panic, over these past few hours.
:thinking:
So you are comparing someones opinion to someone spitting straight facts about the racial injustices that an entire race has went through.
GREAT WORK!! you really showed them :You_Rock_:You_Rock_
you can't blame everything on your color. He was being arrogant, and she called him out on it. It had nothing to do with being black.
I dont usually insult people, especially not over the internet but you're a FUCKING RETARD!!!
Yeah and Rosa Parks was just being arrogant when she didnt want to give up her seat. Martin Luther king was just being arrogant when he wanted equal rights for everyone, LBJ was just being arrogant when he signed the civil rights act, women were just being arrogant when they wanted the right to vote. I've taken history from elementary through college and according to your definition of being arrogant I can continue naming arrogant people, no I got one better I will post some pics of arrogance at its worst:

I dont believe the sport will be dead if mayweather leaves it will take a big blow but if pacquiao retires also it will not be in the mainstream anymore. The only people watching the fights will be boxing fans not casual fans which floyd and pacquiao bring to the sport. Oscar passed the torch onto mayweather and pacquiao, star power wise. Floyd is not going to lose right now, and pacquiao's only challenge that he will take on is maybe mayweather. Mayweather will not pass his star power to anyone and pacquiao will only pass his on to mayweather.
Floyd is on auto-pilot in the ring, he don't need a trainer. So to answer your question: No, its not a legit excuse.
Exactly, floyd needs someone to watch tape and hold the bags, after the bell ring floyd needs someone to rub his chest, give him water, put grease on his face, say muthaf*cka and call his opponent a b*tch, and maybe just maybe tell him to throw more jabs thats it. He doesnt even need a cut man.
Genaro Hernandez
Arturo Gatti
Sharmba Mitchell
Oscar De La Hoya
Juan Manuel Marquez
Shane Mosley
all say "hi".
You do know that the bold were all champions when he beat them right? Three had the wbc belts.
No, for one he already has a belt at 154 and its not the WBC strap. Legacy wise he shouldnt that fight would suck, cotto wasnt ready for floyd before and he still isnt ready. He would get dogged worse than he is getting dogged about shane.
A classic example of sweet sweet ownage.
Oh my bad, I quoted the wrong person in my post. I meant to quote the dude that said ali was being arrogant, not you. Karma sent.
ALI OWNED THAT ASS!!!!!!
TS you do know that almost everybody he has fought was bigger than him, right? And the bigger the opponent is the better he is able to counter them, so he uses his footwork so they chase him and he counters them all night long. He has grown into welterweight so he doesnt need to use his footwork because the only person that came maybe overpower floyd at welter is clottey and maybe berto no one else. If he moves up and fights somebody else bigger than him he will use his footwork again.
Whilst Jones provided a couple of good opinions he also acted like a know it all. He was insistent that his view on the fight was the right one, often making the same point twice as if to argue his case, and he dropped in a couple of 'I told you so's' also, the same way as Steward(?) does when he commentates. I guess some will worship any thing he says because of his achievements in the past but I find both irritating. I like the other HBO guys, they're good.
Because you always have to talk to stupid people like they're children. Jones knows more about what goes on in the ring than lampley, kellerman, lederman, and merchant. Why do you think espn hires so many former professional athletes for their shows. Roy Jones, George Foreman, Lennox Lewis, and Emmanuel Steward they all have to talk to them like they are children sometimes. If I have been doing something my whole life do you actually think someone who has never done it is gone know more about it than me?
True. I think Judah could have been great if he had his head on straight. He had Mayweather talent.
Such a waste of talent, that is the only person that I think had the physical attributes to beat mayweather. He had faster hands(he is faster than manny and mayweather), a slick southpaw, and the power(he hits harder than pacquiao according to someone that has faced both), he just didnt have the dedication to training or the mental toughness that mayweather has.
Judah is easily a better and smarter boxer the Pacquiao. He just dosent have the power and endurance Pac has.
He doesnt have the endurance or the mental toughness of pac, he hits harder than pac though. Cotto said in an interview that judah hits harder out of the people he faced. So that means he hits harder than mosley, clottey, pacquiao, and pacquiao. If you watch the fights you will see that judah is the only person that wobbled cotto in the early rounds off of one shot.

this is why mayweather ducks manny...!!!
notice how theyre throwing the hook and uppercut and notice how it rocked both of them?? notice how pac throws the uppercut faster than mosley and move out of range in all the time it took mosley just to throw his uppercut?? LMAO
u r in denial dude...
props to m@nny its his gifs
Shane throws a jab that mayweather blocked then he tried to counter with a hook right as shane was countering with a hook, not an uppercut.
Let's look at their measurements and maybe you can figure out why pacquiao would not catch mayweather with something like that:
Reach-Shane=74" Mayweather=72" Pacquiao=67" and Cotto=67"
Height-Shane=5'9" Mayweather=5'8" Cotto=5'7" and Pacquiao=5'6.5"
Lets break it down, 5" reach disadvantage with a 1.5" height disadvantage, your facing a guy that is either faster or just as fast and is the best defensive fighter of this era, if not ever. Oh wait I forgot about counter punching, pacquiao had two of his toughest fights versus a counter puncher with the a 67" reach and you dont think a person that is way faster, better reflexes, longer reach and a better counter puncher can beat him. And thats just if mayweather fights on the outside.
Now if mayweather chooses to fight on the inside I just see nothing that pacquiao can do. If pacquiao cant stop him from getting on the inside he will be man handled on the inside, he is just too small.
Now pac's best chance is the mid-range. Floyd has the reach advantage, a very good jab, pac has to lunge in to hit floyd and is shorter. Manny has good foot work and so does floyd.
Manny isnt going to be lunging in after he is hit with enough straight rights and check left hooks. Manny's connect percentage will probably be worst than marquez's vs floyd.
I welcome any real evidence that disputes my analysis of the fight not no manny is the FOTD, BS.
Dipshit, I clearly said during the majority of the fights he has with southpaws he was using ear muffs. I mentioned three fights, stop mentioning only the Judah fight and watch all his fights he has had with southpaws. Tell Pac not to use one style with his ol one dimensional ass. Floyd will easily pick off Pac like a game of duck hunt.
It's funny how the people who have never boxed a day in their life and know little to nothing about the sport of boxing think Pac will when.
To be honest in the corley fight he used the philly shell and shoulder rolled a lot but he had his right hand diagonal across his chest instead of on the side of his head.
Pac was a part-time boxer, was too small, he wore the wrong socks, mayweather made him wear reyes gloves, the ref gave him the fight, mayweather ran, the judges were paid off.
If pacquiao doesnt agree to the testing I wouldnt blame him, I wouldnt put my life on the line to satisfy someone else.
Well Floyd did what he wanted to, get back in the news.
On a side note I'd eat Bria Myles out....from the back.
Bolded: Twice everyday 4x's on Sunday bruh.
I totally agree I would eat the box, I dont go near the poo shooter though,lol
dude, cotto cant beat floyd. bottom line. he has nothing that poses a threat to a fighter like mayweather, i dnt even kno why im discussing it, come back when cotto learns how to clinch and then mebbe u have something.
Thank you someone who finally knows what he is talking about. This dude tried to tell me the fact that mayweather has a 5" reach advantage and a 1" height advantage did really mean anything.
THIS PART IS DIRECTED AT ILLuminato
Cotto 67" reach, Pacquiao 67" reach- pacquiao hit him at will.
Cotto 67" reach, Margarito 73" reach-margarito hit cotto at will plus more.
Cotto 67" reach, Mayweather 72" reach- Will definitely hit cotto at will
seriously......stop......you are embarrassing yourself:tool:
Say you forgot the one were he said floyds reach and height advantage wouldnt mean anything in the fight.
