People who like Manny ( i like him too by the way ) have to think about Bob Arums history of manipulating the sport of boxing and his monopoly of getting the most revenue out of an event. That man is a lier and a bad example related to this sport of boxing which all of us love.
Manny could be honest clean or whatever i would agree to that but Bob Arum is not obviously. And talking about Pretty boy no one has the right to call him anything because he hasnt even said anything about this highly anticipated november 13's VIRTUAL BOUT.
I definately wont be buying this fight as i have said before all the true boxing fans should boycott margacheato in anyway. And this is what Bob Arum will love to happen because this way he can keep all the money inhouse like he is always done and also get Pretty boy's reputation bad in general public.
I think Cotto's gameplan will not just be limited to what is said in the article. Floyd is really comfortable while leaning back on the ropes even though the crowd and the commentators like to believe that he is in big trouble.
You might be right but posting that video to validate your point is laughable.
Cotto has one of the best jabs in boxing and to compare his jab and timing to the guys in that video is laughable.
Cotto has one of the best jabs no doubt but you have to keep in mind the reach and speed disadvantage Cotto has got.
If you agree that he's not as agile, explain how his Pull Counter has become better than the ones on the video through his experience?
Because of his ring experience and IQ, on top of that he still has got reflexes better than most of the fighters.
As brilliant a video it is, it has been used too many times as an example on this forum.
Floyd doesn't possess those cat-like reflexes from years gone by. He can still Pullcounter, but not as devastatingly fast as those on the video.
I completely disagree. I think his pull counter has gotten better. He might not be that agile as you claim but his experience has increased. I think this will be Floyds most devastating weapon because this frustrates and demoralises his opponents real bad.
have you seen him in a fight where his will was tested?
Every fight in itself is different kind of test. What do you think ? In 42 fights, do you think he has faced the same opposition with same style and physical and mental attributes ? When you are as good as he is, every one you fight becomes a bum.
Probably right on the dot at 1.2 mil. But you gotta remember, Floyd never releases confirmed PPV buys, he often pads them to make him look relevant. I heard rumors of Ortiz-Mayweather only selling 250k, which I wouldn't doubt because he had to give away tons of tickets just to sell out the MGM Grand.
Pacquiao-Bradley will do more.
Just STFU with your bullshit
Found a yahoo link on "ringtv". http://******.craveonline.com/blog/171717-live-video-watch-mayweather-cotto-press-conference-here
Oh man your a star. Thanks for the link its working.
Google Translation of the article for anyone who is interested.
Cotto Miguel Angel Vazquez traveled to New York on Tuesday for the second time in the past three days, to record promotional videos of his fight with Floyd Mayweather.
Among the activities that took part was recording the advertising program 'Face off' (face to face, in Spanish), in which the fighters sat down to discuss his future bout with HBO commentator Max Kellerman.
After finishing his promotional tour in Hollywood today, Michael will travel to Orlando, Florida, and immediately begin their barracks before the fight. This will be Cotto's second fight under the tutelage of Cuban coach Pedro Luis Diaz Benitez.
Mayweather and Cotto clash on May 5 next to the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the world championship game will be 154 pounds, in the hands of the Puerto Rican. The card will be transmitted by the system 'pay to view' of HBO.
Mosley tested his heart and he fired right back and dominated the round , they said Ali was a runner with no heart also and he got old and slowed down and then proved tpo have one of the best hearts and chins ever , the great ones have it all and Floyd will stay if anybody is ever good enough to give him that test because he is an ATG . , your a kid with hate and nothing else .
For people like him a fighter who has struggled the whole bout but manages to get a KO out of no where is more greater than a fighter who dominates the other fighter from start to finish just because he is too good. Talking about getting your WILL not tested.
He's no JMM, but i think he can jab better than JMM though. At 154lbs, Cotto can hurt Floyd with his jab.
He might be able to hurt Floyd with his jab, that is only possible if he can even establish his jab at the first place. If he gets countered all the time he will not use it as much. But you can't deny that Cotto has actually got a very good jab.
Gotta say that was a brilliant episode. The best of the bunch so far I would say. CHOWWOKKA did you not see Floyd saying at the end " Miguel is not ready to die in the ring, I am ready to die in the ring."
