    Cotto will try to outbox him for sure. He has good footwork. I seriously doubt that he will go toe to toe.

      I doubt that Floyd retired because of Miguel Cotto because he had
      that rematch with Oscar De La Hoya on September 20th 2008 scheduled
      and Cotto was about to fight Antonio Margarito on July 26th 2008.
      Only Floyd knows the reason why he retired.

          I like clottey! I think he will put cotto on his backfoot by coming forward with that tight guard. Then he will try to unload and counter cotto while he(cotto) is on the ropes. If cotto does what the *** he was suppose to do against margie, i.e. turn clottey after combos, stay off the ropes, and not lean into uppercuts then he may get a UD.

          But, when cotto gets pushed back becomes half the fighter he really is. So I think clottey will pursue this strategy to secure a victory. Clottey gases though late so who the *** knows wat will happen after rd 9.

          I'm expecting to be entertained for 12 though. If cotto finds himself gassing late, he could offset clottey's reckless pressure with a solid job like in the ssm bout.
          Clottey is not the type to come forward, though he said he will against Cotto thinkin the same of Margarito fight is gonna happen, truth is that everyone learns from Experience and i believe Cotto is ready for whatever comes. Cotto will win this fight, even if Clottey comes forward, like u said, he will gass out 2 quick, and thats when it ends.

              I doubt either fighter stops the other. If either is stopped I would be surprised!

                all i said was that foyd said "cotto is too green" and went on to fight a shot gatti. if you wanna add some things, it's all fine and dandy, but don't act like i said anything other than what i have repeated to you 3 times already
                But Migue Cotto was supposed to fight Arturo Gatti at 147
                if Gatti beat Carlos Baldomir. So Cotto was going to fight
                a shot Gatti too. In all actuality Cotto was about to fight
                a more shot Gatti for a Welter weight title.

                  You're confusing yourself. Floyd never said anything about cotto before he fought gatti. You're making it seem like floyd said cotto was too green then went to fight gatti. That's not what happend. At the time floyd fought gatti cotto struggled with corly for a little bit then bearly survived a fight with torrez. Floyd paid no attention to cotto until AFTER he beat gatti. Floyd even gave cotto the chance to fight for 140 wbc championship. Cotto turned it down so i fail to see what you're trying to prove. your timing of events is off.
                  floyd did say that cotto was too green before the gatti fight

                    Mexico you are using PLURAL in ur statement, its only I who said that. Also, i never said Cotto will KO Clottey, i know Clottey is a great defensive fighter therefore it will be tough to KO someone like that, it all depends on the strategy u worked on come fight night. And here is your Poster
