Mayweather can't hurt Cotto!

[fallenloki]

Cotto would get KTFO by PBF.

I agree with Mangler. Floyd would be able to catch Cotto due to Cotto's questionable defense and inability to STAY in the fight through fatigue. Anyone who thinks Cotto is untouchable should look at the punch stats from the Cotto/Margarito fight. Also, Cotto did not look good once he got tired against Mosley or Margarito.

People on here want to underrate every aspect of Floyd's game, but he is undoubtedly a devastatingly accurate puncher with power and unmatched defense. Do not forget how great Mayweather's camp is at game-planning for opponents. I honestly believe Mayweather would knock Cotto down a handful of times before the referee stops the fight.

Slow down a bit! Cotto's questionable defense? Cotto has great defense. I also did not see Cotto getting tired against Mosley, I saw him fighting smart. I am not going to talk about the Marg fight cause we all know what happened there. I am also not underrating Floyd's game at all...I simply said that he would not KO Cotto! It's just what I and many others think.

Why isn't the Margarito fight valid? There isn't any proof that there were illegal hand-wraps. Until proven otherwise that's just a cowardly excuse. The fact is that in the fight Cotto was hit with almost any punch that Margarito threw at him is the reason I question his defense. I posted the stats in another thread if you care to find the post. Furthermore, do not forget how many times Cotto has been legitimately hurt and how many times he has been put on the canvas by not so great opposition.

Despite how we argue or discuss things, it is merely what we all think. Cotto is an excellent fighter, but I will refrain from calling him "great" until he stops taking extremely easy fights against people like Alfonso Gomez and Michael Jennings.

I believe the Clottey fight is an excellent gauge to see where Cotto's game truly is. I personally do not believe he can beat Clottey

Cotto-Mosley is exactly what he needs to do..people say Cotto gassed..and that his stamina is WEAK!..but that's EXACTLY the Cotto that needs to show up against Mayweather..EXCEPT he has to MIX it up..be the agressor first for the first 3 rounds in an intelligent way!..and rounds 4-7 Cotto needs to be on the back foot..and TIME Mayweather's arsenal..Cotto's the best at Timing..and could very well time Mayweather..rounds 8-10 back to the Agressor style..wit MORE COMBOS!..he needs to rack those points HERE!..and walk Mayweather back!..and the last 2..Cotto needs to ease off..cuz Mayweather doesn't get too agressive in the LAST 2 neither..so Cotto just needs to try to be more accurate/precise..

TOO ME!..that's the perfect gameplan..especially if he can get in the inside and hit Mayweather to the body a few times..and/or some CLEAN left hooks..since Cotto is a NASTY short distance puncher..

I wanna see a Cotto Win...but I can't help but to lean towards Money May's decision..

Pretty good plan, but I don't think he has to be more precise since he's got that down. He needs more punch output, and to work on his stamina if it is affecting him in the later rounds.

So no one!? LOL

Cotto that fought Mosley has the best chance if he wouldnt gassed out, ill say about 40% against the floyd that fought Hatton.

Pac that fought Oscar/Diaz/ ( am assuming that Oscar was no walking corpse like some posters would like as believe) 35%

Shane that fought Margarito 25%.

Yeah. When DiD Ricky rock Floyd?

During the pre-fight press conference?

[fallenloki]

Hatton did rocked Mayweather and he's a smaller dude, so Cotto, Mosley, Margarito or any bigger fighter has a chance to knock him out. Mayweather isn't in the small division any more where he went up against Castillo and Corales. The only big guy he fought was the slower,older version of De La Hoya.

Umm, please let me know where in the fight this happen. Aside from catching Floyd off balance, he never came close to putting much damage on Mayweather. I would also hope that we are all mature enough to see that it was clearly a balance issue.

I also agree that Clottey is going to be one hellava fight...I want to say a Cotto win, but wouldn't bet on it. As for taking easy fights whatever...Alfonso Gomez was given a shot cause of that ****** @ss reality show and Jennings deserved to fight someone with Cotto stature. So whatever! Oh, and on the Marg thing...we don't know if he used plaster in that fight or not, but I'm saying he did (my opinion...I'll let you do the research and analysis part) and if you get hit over and over with something cement like you will eventually have no defense at all right...?...well unless your superhuman or something.

I meant more than Mayweather..in those last couple rounds..

[elfag]

Um Torres almost KOed Cotto.

Money May can hurt Cotto, trust me. But likely he wouldnt even have to in order to win the fight wide UD.

[D-Omonist]

Yeah. When DiD Ricky rock Floyd?

During the pre-fight press conference?

That sh#t was funny as hell! LOL
