    Cotto KOs Fraud
    So what makes you think Cotto Ko's 'Fraud'? Not saying it isn't possible, just want to know why you think that is all...

    Yeah, to be fair it was kinda unfair how Clottey wasn't given any good opponents, I see him coming to give Cotto trouble on fight night... I think he will be highly motivated...

      As for the not the best in the division, he has faced top opponents during his reign, he fought great fighters that were his own size at super featherweight, lightweight, etc. so you can't go round acting like he hasn't fought the best, also some people thought Hatton could beat PBF and once PBF beat him he was called overrated by some, just like Baldomir. I aint defending I am just saying we gotta be fair.

      In fairness, Cotto's defense is probably a bit underrated, just like Floyd's power... but in my opinion Floyd will be just too classy and smart for Cotto and box him to a decision.

      Either way, I do want to see a Cotto, Pacquiao and Mosley fight just as much as anyone... they would be great fights and would be perfect names to add to Floyd legacy if he can pull it off in all 3 fights...
      Ricky Hatton was hyped by the british fans/media and haters that wanted to see Floyd lose. Ricky never beat anyone "elite" before the Floyd fight to believe he was relly that good to beat floyd, sure he KO Castillo(past his prime) and Collazo and urango were solid wins but not great to make him some type of star.

      By you saying that Floyd is too classy and smart really makes me think you believe cotto is not smart boxer and that is not true cotto is one of the smartest boxers today and knows what to do in the ring and when to do it. He is a terrific at making other fighters box at his pase and Floyd's style plays right in the hands of Cotto because he is always retreating and trying to counter punch. None of that will work with Cotto because of the crazy pressure he puts on the other fighter and floyd's lack of power is only going to help Cotto's attack in the late rounds.

      I don't see how Floyd will be able to hurt Cotto enough to make him stop coming foward so I think Cotto takes this fight by KO.

          Mayweather has never fought a strong opponent like Mosley or Cotto. he would be done in by both guys
          So you don't think that Cotto or Mosley could find Floyd hard to hit? Also you don't think Floyd accurate punching wont make any difference on the outcome?

          Just a question...

            Floyd cant hurt Cotto at 147. All he ca do is rack up points outboxing him. Theres no way Floyd can outbox Cotto without taking massive heat. Look at shane vs Cotto shane was flustered and I would argue shane has hands as fast as Floyds but shane throws his hands more.

            Cotto also will be given breaks to rest at needed times with Floyd since floyd barely throws any punches.

            Its a win win situation for Cotto vs Floyd. Thats why all of Mayweathers advisors and Mayweather himself have avoided fighting Cotto.

              i agree, floyd has never fovght anyone as strong and as good as cotto and mosley. floyd would lose to them both. he aint strong enough and dont hit hard enough to keep cotto and mosley off of him and he cant run forever.

                I agree a lot people undarate Cotto's defence and movement and Cotto is a Animal at 147 so I don't think floyd can beat him.

                  Floyd Mayweather is a better pure boxer than Shane Mosley. Stop the comparison...Shane is easier to hit than Floyd and Shane stood in the center of the ring with Cotto.

                  Floyd moves and makes adjustments.

                    Cotto is not strong...

                    He FOLDED under Tony's slow-motion pressure tactics.


                    Baldomir is WAY stronger than little Jotto..He took shots from Forrest that would have killed Sheguel.

                      Mayweather has never fought fighters at the level of Cotto or Shane. and NO they wouldnt find him hard to hit given thier experience against top dangerous fighters.

                      If Zab could find Mayweathers chin im sure Shane and Cotto wouldnt have a problem. Bodywork wuld be the key like the castillo fight. Floyd rolls and exposes his body which fall into both shane and Cottos arsenal.
