    Cotto was a hell of a lot busier than Floyd has been on occasion although that created problems of its own last night.

      ..."trading left hooks" means that you are also eating some. I believe Mr. Mayweather opts for the "hit and not be hit" option.
      Cotto averaged 70 punches per round, FMJ throws about 40 per round. Quite a disparity there.

        IT IS called hypocrisy...and Mayweather never ran as much as cotto ran last night.

        Mayweather would have force margarito to fight in the middle of the ring, and turn the fight into a defensive boxing masterpiece. ala Floyd vs. Baldomir ala Floyd vs. Corralles

          me #1, me block punches with face

          Cotto couldn't get away, that's the only reason he traded. who in their right mind would trade with Margarito by choice? nobody

          stop defending your guy for getting his ****in head knocked off. how's that 1 in the loss column? lotta this morning?
          LMAO @ caveman fighting.

            Look at both sides. Cotto got hit 2x, 3x as much as mayweather ever does.

            Margarito landed 25 punches a round on Cotto. 25 mostly power punches. What does that say about Migs' "boxing ability"?

              cotto was literally backing up cuz he was being walked down were as mayweather literally runs back when nobody is even chasing him down. hes a ***** hes a runner.

                What I am saying is that hey are different fighters (FMJ and Cotto). FMJ does what works for him, it just happens to be uneventful, and boring (hence people claiming that he rides his bike).

                My point is that Cotto may have used the ring, but in a much different way than FMJ, he was actually active.

                That said, Cotto probably should have been more economical against Margarito in the early rounds.

                    Its not what you throw but what you land, when cotto throws 70 per round and lands 25 at average compare to PBF throwing 40 but landing 30 ish punches...I think thats the difference really.

                      Cotto landed almost 50%, FMJ does not land 75% as you are indicating, what fights are you watching?
