    I know Floyd has the speed power (which is NEVER a one punch KO by the way) to hurt Cotto, but I just don't think he is going to load up on a shot enough to even try it. He knows Cotto is this generation's fighter who deserves the nickname "Hands of Stone" (Manos de Piedra).

    There is a reason he didn't KO weak-chin Judah. Say what you want about him being on his way... Judah wasn't hurt at the time of the low blow, and there was only three minutes left in the fight, and Floyd would have been more than happy to cruise to a victory.
    I disagree with the Zab part. You have to remember that Zab is a Southpaw so Floyd showed him alot of respect and never ran in wild, even while walking him down. If Zab was a orthodox fighter then Floyd easily stops him in that fight

      Some of these dudes are confusing KO with knock down...

      Floyd would NOT be the aggresor in there fight...

      Cotto definitely hits harder than Ricky Hatton...

      Floyds elbows and arms will be screaming with pain...

      Which how long can you hold your arms up to defend yourself after getting your ribs destroyed?

      Floyds mythical speed will keep from being in the corner and on the ropes ever apparently according to his cult...

      But on a serious tip...

      The accumulation of damage Cotto would cause to Mayweather in comparison to the damage Mayweather would cause in lets say 10 rounds is on two different levels...

      Mayweather COULD knock out Cotto in the 11th or 12th round if he's gotten some amazingly powerful flush shots in to stun Cotto or floor him earlier but Mayweather doesn't have the one punch power to get the job done...

      P.S. Burner you owe me a new pair of pants. I peed in the ones I'm wearing. Mayweather beats Cotto ten out of ten times? LMFAO! Wipe your chin off dude there's some white **** on there.

      Ey bro you missed out about 12 comments from others you need to respind to..dont duck 'em.

        It's not impossible to defend against a body attacker.

        Shane "I will block punches with my face" Mosley effectively destroyed Cotto's body work. If he could, Floyd would.
        Floyd wouldn't be running all over the ring like sheeple suggests.
        He is not a runner. He would do what he does best, and that is counter the **** out of others.

        Cotto could win, but Floyd is definitely capable of whooping Cotto's ass too.

          I've seen it. You care to point out at what point Cotto was in any real danger?

          Floyd will break his hand on Cottos primitive cromagnon man skull.
          Ummm...

          You aren't really serious, are you?

          You think Cotto was just playing possum when he was stumbling around the ring after the counter uppercut landed?

                Better not to look too closely, DW..

                You might be apalled at the reasoning and awareness of these people.

                  That's my response in general to the topic. Floyd could knock down Cotto. But Cotto and his Wolverine like capability to heal himself are perfect for the type of fighter Floyd is. A weak one that doesn't have one hit KO power. Cotto would get stunned or put on ***** street - like always - then he'd come back and cripple that ass.

                    very interesting fight. I actually dont want to think about it that much, because I find if I overanalyze a fight too much I end up getting a lot of it right(occasionally). which really ruins the fight, because you kind of already know whats going to happen, which is no fun.

                    People seem to get confused with guys like Floyd. theres a reason he is not the one who pushes the fight...he does not fight as effectively that way. its not like he could just switch to a fighting mode and do just as good as always.

                    look at the 1st Castillo fight. I actually admired Floyd's work in that fight, because he DID sit there and fight it out with Castillo at times. thats actually kind of overlooked because of the whole robbery issue. while he DID do good work on the inside and really impressed me with his versitility, the fact of the matter is that he was losing when he fought like that.

                    Mayweather fights like he does for a reason...and its not because he 'doesnt like to take unneccesary risks' or whatever people like to say. its because its what works best for him. can he fight good as the aggressor? absolutely. would he be as effective as he is nowadays if he fought aggressively? no ****in way lol, unless its kind of a style type matchup like Judah vs Mayweather, where Mayweather was forced to fight going forward because it wasnt working fantastically for him on the outside.

                      If Floyd can Ko Cotto, then Cotto can KO Floyd if Cotto times Mayweather.
