    As a fighter, I'd rather be fighting Floyd on the inside instead of Cotto. He seems to cause more damage as proven in his past fights against similar 9or same) opposition.
    GREAT POST..great points,,

      Floyd is the better inside fighter.


      Macho Camacho made a good point to me one day regarding Floyd vs. Cotto:

      He stated that the fight would be similar to when he fought JCC. Macho stated "I was a far better boxer, I was faster, and had much better footwork but that didnt mean **** when we got in the ring." He indicated that the results would be closer but similar in respect to how effective PBF would really be against Cotto considering his relentlessness, body work, and ring cutting capabilities.

      Granted, Macho was not at his best when he fought JCC, but I know that the result would have been similar regardless.

      Styles makes fights.... please remember that.

          floyd IMO, carlos is physically strong, just not an explosive puncher, and floyd made him look bad on the inside.........cotto is a better attacker on the inside but floyd never gets hit

            Don't forget about the way he fights off the ropes.

            Floyd fights off the ropes better than anybody in the sport.

                Mayweather is a better Inside figher because Mayweather had defense while he fought in the inside.
