    Is Floyd Already Beating Cotto?

    Cotto had never really called Floyd out and I actually respected him for it because that obviously wasnt his personality and we all knew that he wanted the fight anyway.

    Now though he is openly calling him out and starting to be kind of ****y about it. You can say what you want but that is not Cotto's personality. To me, its like Floyd is already winning the mind games. He's already got Cotto acting different. I can see the fight getting made around Januaray and Floyd easily getting under Cotto's skin and making him do things that he doesnt normally do. I could see Cotto losing his cool or start talking alot of trash.

    Everyone always says that Floyd wont be able to get under someones skin and then he always does it and its happening again. You guys might like Cotto doing all this talking about Floyd but I just think its wrong because its not him. There's a difference between letting it be known that you want a fight and then talking non stop about it and being ****y about it. He's even starting to overlook his opponent which is probally ok for now since he's only fighting Gomez but still...

    Unlike others, I do think this fight definatly happeneds after Floyd beats Oscar and I think that it will be by far the biggest fight in recent memory when it comes strictly to boxing. It might not make Floyd-Oscar money but for boxing itself, it will be super huge

    Quit possibly. Cotto mentally is tough, but so was Hatton and everyone else. Hatton got out of his "element" so to speak. I wonder of Cotto would himself.

      Cotto doesnt have emotions so it wont matter.

          Thats What Floyd Does. He Gets Into His Game Plan Before The Fight. You Saw It With Hatton, Getting Over Anxious Before The Fight And Went In There Trying To Knock Him Out. Now Cotto Is Going Out Of His Comfort Zone To Do What Floyd Wants Him To Do. Its All Mind Tricks Floyd And B-hop Are Great At It. Floyd Knows Which We Way He Wants To Fight Cotto, Now Floyd Is Just Trying To Get Cotto In The Mind Set To Be Able To Fight The Way Floyd Wants Him To Fight.

            I see Floyd outboxing him to a comfortable decision or late stoppage. I like Cotto, but does he have the boxing skills to hang with Floyd? I don't know...Cotto has skill and is a warrior, I would love to see it.

              Cotto hasn't evolved yet.

              He is in BETA mode.

                THATS NOT THE QUESTION, THE QUESTION IS IS FLOYD ALREADY GETTING INTO COTTO'S HEAD

                  Cotto has said the same thing ("Mayweather is making excuses") for the past few years with the same unemotional tone as always.

                  It's not the first time Cotto has accused Floyd Mayweather of ducking him and it certainly won't be the last. I think Bob Arum or someone else from his management is making him do it to push for a fight with Floyd.

                    I see how everyone "SEEMS" to think that Floyd is getting to his head. Ya should all be psychologists!
