Could FM knock out Cotto?

1. Mosely did everything wrong in that fight. He had a ****** 3-4 inch jab...he used it to load up on wide looping right hooks. Something that could easily be blocked and when Cotto defend himself nicely against it...all of a sudden Cotto has great defense. Thats where the myth started.
2. Mosely stood in the middle of the ring and rarely moved.Comment

Agree and it suxs that they're using Mosely as an example.

If somebody buys theyself a long breather from being hit when they looking like they could be stopped, that obviously helps they head to clear and makes a difference when there's only 2 rounds left to survive.
If Judah had bought himself the same break in the 10th agin Cotto, then Cotto may not have stopped him.
If that point goes over your head, it's your problem.
Read the sentence clearly. His accuracy is tended to be underrated as a fight-finishing quality.
People follow the flawed logic that because he isn't a massive puncher in the division, he can't knock men out.
He punches hard enough, for a boxer as precise as he is.Comment

The point about Judah is very clear. It's a valid counter-argument to your point about Mayweather's failure to stop him.

Sorry if your logic about taking a break went over my head at first. The grammer and perplexity of the sentece did not concur. So your saying he faught a smart fight and didnt let himself get ko'd? He pulled a FM?
Cotto didnt let him take breaks by grabbing and clinching and paying for a vacation. He KHATFO (k his A$$ the F out) END OF STORY!Comment

You know the point I'm making. If you want to distort it, that's your business.
But to be real. I don't even know why I'm giving this simple "who knocked out who" bull**** triangulation logic any of my time.
It's obvious who you are. And you're a clown.
I gave you red once. For being an azzhole and blocking me from that thread.

I'm saying Judah didn't hit Cotto hard on the cup and start a full-scale riot to buy himself valuable head-clearing time from the beating that was being put on him.

I know your point and like I said respect it. Its called perception. I failed mind reading class and didnt take it again in college. If you are going to make an argument do it, dont just say he bought a break. I have my view and you have yours. We agree to disagree. I get along with everyone, stop causing problems!
You just like to argue and bully people to believe what you think is right. I havent seen you post one thing that is intellectual regarding boxing. Just your views..... You have yours and so do others! RESPECT THOSE HOMIE!~
Bottom line between you and I is stop being a ***** and giving me red!Comment

Each of those fighters has a legit claim to having a good CHANCE to knock cotto out but i dont see it happening.
Floyd has a great chance because he's a master boxer who can wear you down by outlanding you so consistantly like he did ricky hatton. For floyd it wouldnt be one punch or one combo but a series of punches from the opening rounds on that would break an opponent; especially by landing 40+%.
Paul williams would have a chance because of his size. However i dont see it happening as cotto (i can almost guarantee) would work williams body until he broke him. at 6'2 its a mid section that cotto wouldnt stop attacking (in my opinion) this would force williams to drop his hands and i wouldnt see him getting off a solid punch (or punches) that would put him away.
Clottey i give the best chance. he works the body well, is very strong and smart. out of all 3 i see clottey being the only one who could do it mostly based on his strength and style of fighting which could give cotto problems.
You have to remember cotto took margarito's best and made it 11 rounds with him. and margarito certainly punches harder than any of these 3 fighters...shane mosley couldnt knock him out...and mosley punches harder than all 3 of these guys here...so its not like cotto has been in with only feather fisted punchers...he's taken some good shots.
After seeing the ppv against margarito i think his chin has been underrated because of how weak it was due to being weight drained at 140 (even malignaggi got him off balance at 140). He took a lot from margarito before he couldnt take it anymore and with margarito being the strongest puncher at 147 that is nothing to be ashamed of.Comment
