        Floyd has an even better bodyjab than Mosley.

        Nothing stops a mofo better than a shot to the solar plexis.

        Mayorga his Shane at will...yet...Tony could barely land.

        If Marge couldn't hit Shane(or Clottey) then he'd really be LOST fighting Floyd.


        Oscar has a better chin than Tony and he couldn't walk thru Floyd's punches.

          I bet Cotto would KO Baldomir if they fought.

          Cotto would UD Marg NOW though because Cotto has probably learned his lesson now...and let me tell you, when a technically gifted fighter like Cotto loses a fight they come back even stronger.
          Cotto couldn't KO Baldomir's spit bucket.

          If Forrest couldn't stop him at 154 then Cotto's little ass can forget about it.

          Cotto's power is vastly overrated.

              Forrest had him hurt but he walked thru EVERYTHING Cotto threw at him.

              Shane and Tony both said Cotto is not a puncher.

                  i agree that cotto is not a puncher but the accumulation of punches are very effective. just like lamprey said "miguel cotto doesnt beat you, he beats you up" the only person that i remember right now out of top of my head that cotto laid on their back was zab judah but almost all his ko are tko

                    Since Cotto is left-handed, Floyd may have the edge in right-hand power. Left-hand, definitely Cotto. Overall, most likely Cotto.

                      margarito did not walk through cottos punches..... notice that every time cotto landed, marg stopped..... when cotto stop punching,marg kept comming forward.

                      floyd would have simply beaten the hell out of margarito in a fair fight....... any sitting duck target will get knocked out by mayweather due to rapid accurate punches
