Hopkins: "Cotto will give Mayweather nightmares"

[xpsm24]

Damn Right, Hopkins. To all mayweather fans: How could you possibly love a fighter that runs and jumps for 12 rounds and doesnt stop to fight. He stands no chance with Cotto. Not now, not never.

i don't understand how people give cotto no chance against floyd but think hatton does.

I see too many people in here giving their own sweeping, dismissive analysis that can easily be seen as wishful thinking..very see through.

Whoever says that Judah was more prepared for Cotto than he was for Mayweather is a biased loser. Judah looked way better as far as being willing to let his hands go, accuracy, speed, and focus. Plus he wasn't coming off a year lay off.

Mayweather's shoulder roll is not his only defensive maneuver and people who keep bringing that up as Mayweather's only answer to pressure really sound like kids. He also twists his waste very well with the rythm of punches, uses his reach to keep you at Bay, and dips out. You can actually see him working, in the process of twisting, turning, giving you angles until he finds the ones that work best.

Whoever said Cotto's jab is better than Mayweather's is obviously wearing a straight jacket, or is Puerto rican. Mayweather has a comfortable reach advantage over Cotto, and when he uses his jab, especially to the mid-section, it is one of the best in the business. Cotto's jab is inferior in comparison. You can tell that he's still honing his jab, while Mayweather has mastered it and mostly uses it to set up shots or keep you at bay.

Cotto would charge and get picked off.. When Mosley finally started bouncing around on his toes, he started putting work in and Cotto had no answer for it other than to throw punches, which unfortunately, an older Mosley was unable to dodge as easily.

Mayweather's accuracy, reflexes, speed, foot work, balance, jab, and ring intelligence is all better than Mosley's and given that that fight was so close, I see Cotto as easy work for Floyd...too slow.

Hatton has a better chance for the simple fact that he's faster and busier.

judah was willing to let his hands go more with floyd because floyd doesn't have the power of cotto and he didn't do anything to make zab stop throwing punchs in the first 4 rounds.
floyd doesn't really jab he throws a jab /hook here and there but floyd like zab and shane don't really have a serious jab they live off of their speed and natural talents

Hatton has no jab, I don't care if Hatton tries to learn how to jab for this fight. Cottos always shown a hard ass jab in every fight he has been in.

Hatton can't outbox Floyd, but Cotto sure can. Cotto's jab would **** on Floyds Floyds jab will work against hatton, but Floyds jab wouldn't do **** against Cotto.

Bump!!!!!!

I kinda wanna see Cotto beat Manny just so I can see Cotto vs Mayweather next year.

[goldenglove2]

PBF must first get past Hatton. If PBF gets past Hatton but dont want to fight Cotto, he cant consider himself p4p top boy. He will have to fight Cotto to remain the No1, because Cotto is knocking on the door now.

yeap.......................................

I'd like to see Floyd fight Manny...then Cotto and then Mosley. As I'm sure everyone would haha.

[MANGLER]

This fight won't happen.
