    Why i think based on style Cotto will beat Floyd

    why i think based on style Cotto will beat Floyd

    Cotto is much different to Hatton

    Hatton does'nt jab ,he Fights with his face & relies on feints & Head movement to get inside & he is way to impatient when he is trying to work his way in ,and he keeps his hands somewhere by his chest ,he exclusively throws Hooks & hardly any straight shots what so ever ,smouthers himself on the inside aswsell

    Cotto has a good jab ,he is very patient at working his way inside ,does'nt need to rely on the referee to allow him to push his oponent into the ropes so he can land his body shots like Hatton ,he is capable of mixing in Body shots off his combintations ,he keeps his chin tucked in & his hands high ,he is very good at cutting down the ring & he is relentless ,he does throw straight shots down the middle unlike Hatton & if FLoyd is vulnerable to any shots it is the right hand down the middle Castillo caught him with it quite a few times in both fights ,Hatton needed the jab Dela Hoya used to keep Mayweather where he wanted him & the Right hands down the pipe that Castillo hit Floyd with & he needed to be able to cut the ring down like Cotto does ,as it was he did'nt have a jab or any straight shots & he followed PBF around the ring & got caught walking in a straight line being impatient to get inside again as i pointed out

    Cotto has all those qualities i mentioned ,allthough i think Cotto has a tough fight coming up with Gomez u may laugh but ill bet Gomez turns out to be a tough nut to crack for Cotto

      Mayweather wont fight with Cotto he will move the whole fight, so unless Cotto can pin him like Hatton, but unlike Hatton actually do something after pinning him he will win.

        well if FLoyd does not wanna engauge then Cotto should not start throwing lots of Leather at him & leave himself open to counters he should use the jab only & be more active throughout the round, if Floyd does'nt wanna lead to him dont get ****** in & start unloading that is how Oscar hit with that left hook he was controlling Floyd with the jab but got over excited & started letting to many shots go & left the door open for that left hook Counter

        if u can win the round just by jabbing & being more active then that is what u should do cause Floyd obviously wants u to lead to him with more shots cause he aint gonna pick up that many counters of the jab if it is thrown accurately & with speed ,he sets traps dont fall for it man

          Only way Cotto beats Floyd is by KO. Floyd can adjust to anything in the ring. He can walk you down, fight going backwards, fight off the ropes, inside,etc. Cotto would have to break him down and unlike Mosley, Floyd won't stand there and let you do that. I could picture Floyd giving Cotto different looks and by round 5 or 6 Cotto getting pissed off.

          BTW I think Oscar is a better complete boxer than Cotto(not saying he'd beat Cotto).

                here's what it all boils down to right here:

                Floyd: Cotto knows he can't beat me. Cotto is a punching bag.

                Merchant: Will you fight Cotto?

                Floyd: I won't let boxing (Cotto) retire me. I will retire from boxing."

                case closed, game set and match, checkmate, Cotto - without even having had to land a single punch. Cotto's confidence has killed floyd.
