      Unless Cotto gets Quicker and Mayweather gets slow and less smarter in the ring i dont see how Cotto can win, Maybe a luck punch but i find it difficult to see how he might land those punches.
      If Mayweather is rusty then he might eat alot of jabs but i just cant see how Cotto can win.

        i don't see cotto beating mayweather but i feel he will give him a good fight and he is clearly one of the best fighters at 147. hopefully next year mayweather gives the fans what they want

          I see Mayweather winning this fight.

          1 - Cotto has a questionable chin

          2 - Mayweather will stand side on, lead hand round his waist, back hand protecting his chin. This will nullify Cotto's body shots.

          3 - Mayweather will probably get protection from the referee

          I dont see Cotto having anything to offer Mayweather. He is the kind of style that Mayweather likes, he will come forward, and is quite predicatable in his work. I dont think the Cotto jab is quick enough and often enough to set up enough shots.

            I can't see Duran, Sugar, Hagler etc talking all this ****. Floyd is a fraud. If he felt it... he would have fought Cotto already. Classic case of a punk.
            Depends on which Sugar you are talking about.

              the only way in my opinion cotto can beat floyd is using jab in order to compel floyd getting to the ropes and then combinations which cotto's one of the best weapons.

                Cotto doesn't have any keys to victory because he can not beat PBF. When this fight happens and if both fighters come to the ring with they're "A" games Cotto loses plain and simple.

                  I feel ya.

                  Its funny how so many people on this board are picking Cotto to beat Mayweather but half of them wont show and give an idea on how Cotto is going to beat Floyd. I think most of them are hoping Cotto beats him. (just my opinion)

                    Yea Floyd's Vargas LOL!

                      Ok, since you feel that Cotto is going to KO Floyd how do you see it playing out?
