What Wouldve Happend If They Switched?

How would the fights have played out if Mayweather was the one fighting Mosley and Cotto was the one fighting Hatton?


Would Cotto have destroyed Hatton or would it have been a super tought grueling fight? Would Floyd have made Shane look dumb or would Shane have stopped Floyd? I ask this because they both seem to be 2 perfect matchups. Floyd vs Shane wouldve been awesome to watch and Cotto vs Hatton wouldve been a physical war

Cotto would have gotten Hatton out late I feel. And Floyd would have one a decison over Mosley.

Great topic.....I think Floyd wouldve TKO'd Shane in 8 rounds...hes 37 years old and even Cotto outboxed him and his speed and reflexes and defense dopesnt compare to Floyd.

I think Hatton wouldve beat Cotto.....that would be a WAR though.

Mayweather isnt knocking out Mosley, that's blasphemy. He took some clean hard shots from Cotto and wasnt phased.

Cotto would TKO Hatton in the 7th, and Mayweather would win 8-9 rounds en route to a UD.

I'm thinking this too. Cottos chin has been questioned and almost crumbled. The Hitmans is nothing short of rock solid, nobody should be able to get up and still come forward after that check hook, but he did.

In the early rounds Hatton would outwork Cotto, and if he could hurt him to the body then he could get him out of there late on. Cotto is much bigger though, and size is always an advantage.

Cotto would have worn Hatton down in a slugfest.... and Mayweather/ Mosley is kind of a tough call...as you eluded to thier style matchup....the probable outcome would be Mayweather on a split decision...definitely not unanimous. Had this fight taken place between 2000 ~ 2001, I would have went with Mosley Hands down.

Mayweather UD Mosley (116-112ish)
Cotto TKO Hatton (10-11th ish)

So basically the same fighters would have won the fights. No big deal.

Good fights, at this stage of their careers Mayweather beats Mosley.

I would put money on Cotto, but if Hatton hurts him early, he stops him. What a fight it would be, as long as it lasted.

I would have preferred those matches actually, but oh well. Much better that Money May got to be the one to destroy Hatton

I think the outcome would have been the same as it is today:
Mayweather V. Cotto.

I believe Mayweather would have decisioned mosley and Cotto would have beaten Hatton.

Thats my opinion.
