Cotto was flawed, Floyd has no flaws. Floyd will beat Margs easily...

STyles makes fights


I can see Floyd beating Margs but I cant see Floyd beating a Miguel Cotto

You must be out of your mind lol. This isn't a styles fight. Cotto can't match Floyd in any department period. Floyd would ko Cotto.

I like Margs a lot. But one thing people are totally missing is Floyd's speed.
You can't catch him. Ask DLH who's faster than Margarito.
And Floyd can sit in the pocket and make Margs miss and get him frustrated.
Cotto is not slick per se. Floyd is. Ridiculously fast and slick.
Believe me, I would root for Margs from Round 1, but I am not dumb enough to think Margs would walk him down.

Floyd loves the come forward guys because his speed negates their advantages. He would potshot and get out, throw 6 punches and get out.

It would be Tex Cobb versus Larry Holmes.

Try boxing a guy a ton faster than you when you can't cut off the ring.

It's not fun.

It wouldn't be fun for Margs but I'd be praying for him to catch Floyd if Floyd got careless.

Good post. Cotto does not have the defense to keep Floyd from hitting him at will. Margs would do well against Floyd because he can punch with both hands, but he can't beat Floyd because he won't be able to hit Floyd. Missing punches would get him tired. Floyd knows how to rest in a fight, and Cotto doesn't. Every time Cotto did try to rest, he got beat up, or lost that round.

cotto's body attack might have helped, but it was cotto's conditioning and pacing that screwed him.

cotto's not much of a ring general.

He did fine until he stopped, and when you get tired, you stop punching, but you never let up on defense. Those triple left uppercuts busted Cotto's nose. The one thing you have to do when you rest is use defense. That never stops even when you stop punching. Cotto used so much power, he was tired and couldn't defend himself. He fought a dumb fight. Jermainbe Taylor did the same against Pavlik, fought a dumb fight. But when it is all said and done, Pav and Margs fought smart fights.

yes, he will "resort" to completely outclassing the mother****er

LOL, bitter bitter bastard you are

Cotto was real good of every aspect of boxing. He has good power, a good chin, good boxing ability , good defense, and good ring generalship. Margarito took him out of his element. That would never happen to FLoyd. He isn't going to leave his element that is why most fans don't enjoy watching him because he is so dam good. The only way Marg beats Floyd is the same way he beat Cotto at his game. Floyd won't allow that to happen. Cotto was winning 4 or 5 out of the first 6 rounds untill he wanted to trade with Tony and stay on the ropes. Floyd would never let that happen.

Floyd makes easy work of Marg, he would outbox and counterpunch him all night, Cotto didnt have the stamina, heart, skill or conditioning to deal with Margarito's relentless attack.
Floyd does.

I agree with most of your post except that when you say nobody likes watching him fight, and maybe you don't mean it the way you say it. You want to see Floyd in a give and take fight. He gives you that at times, but he doesn't do it for 12 because he is such a great defensive fighter. He is a smart fighter.

He had the heart, not the skill. When any boxer has had enough, unless you have been in that ring getting pounded on for 11 rounds, nose bleeding, cut, and hurt to the body, never question a man's heart. Good post.

Floyd KO's Hatton and all of a sudden he's the next coming of Tyson! LOL. Floyd will not stay in the pocket long enough, nor commit to his punches enough in order to KO either Cotto or Marg.

What's so confusing? Marg is a slow plodding puncher. Floyd is to fast to let Margarito corner him, or back him into the ropes so that he can unleash punches. Floyd also knows that he couldnt KO Margo with a bat! Therefore, he will resort to his one, done, and run routine. It will be a UD.

LOL @ you.
All the **** you have talked, and now realizing that your boy is not the fighter he was believed to be.

I have been saying it all along.
