Miguel Cotto would KO Floyd Mayweather

[Spacey1991]

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.

I never said Cotto isn't a classy or smart Boxer, but he isn't smarter than Mayweather. I think as Cotto keeps chasing Mayweather he will see openings and Floyd will keep catching him on his way in, capitalizing on every opening or mistake made... like I said, I think Floyd will retreat and keep counter punching with fast and accurate punches which over time will slow Cotto's pace down... don't forget that Floyd is still very hard to hit so he would still find it troublesome to land anything. I think the more Cotto moves forward and gets countered he will get more and more tired and in the later rounds Floyd will just continue to pick him off to a decision.

Hatton was kinda overrated, but all I am saying is that before the fight people thought he would win... so you can't exactly take that win away from him... Cotto is a class above Hatton in his own right though.

have you ever seen cotto block a right hand? dont worry, ill wait.....

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.

"pure boxing" doesnt beat world class opponents like shane or Cotto. And shane has been hit because he has fought opponents that are far more skilled than anything mayweather has faced.

Shane also gets hit because he is willing to take a shot to deliver an even harder shot. IT TAKES NOT JUST "PURE BOXING" TO BEAT TOUGH GUYS IT TAKES A WILL TO HURT AND A KILLER INSTINCT. Something Floyd lacked and now in recent times shows no sign of havng. the guy is done with boxing hes back because hes been outshined and forgotten about. His big mouth is gonna run him into the long awaited loss hes destined to have.

how about an uppercut? we saw what judah with with his counter uppercuts and how about margarito landing like 3-4 left hand uppecuts in a row the whole fight? it's like this guy dosn't know how to adjust./

i would be more worried about how cotto looks v clottey

yeah thats true. i would be more worried about how he looks vs a solid top welterweight than how floyd looks against a lightweight

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.

I personally dont underrate his defense, but it needs to be tighter, IMO. When you saw the Margo fight I thought he boxed BEAUTIFULLY. He threw his some big shots with GREAT accuracy and used great lateral movement. I even had the chance to see him fighting going backwards and I must say I was impressed. The thing that hurt him was his stamina which ultimately led to more holes in his defense. If you ask me, more stamina BETTER defense.

However, when discussing these two fighters on defense and movement Mayweather JR. clearly is the better BOXER with the better DEFENSE. You feel me?

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.

The break inbetween rounds isn't that big believe me, it sounds like it is but when your that tired it is a short amount of time to fully recover.

Mayweather doesn't throw many punches but has better defense than Mosley, he will find him much harder to his... Mayweather is smarter than Mosley and extremely accurate and will capitalize on every opening and mistake Cotto makes. Cotto's defense is kinda underrated like Floyd's power, but it still isn't great and he has a tendency to get caught.

I just feel Cotto will keep chasing him and Floyd will keep countering him, I think over this time Cotto will tire and Mayweather will keep working on him and picking him off, eventually winning a decision.

That's just my opinion anyway...

+1

Floyd is way too feather fisted to make enough damage and stop Cotto from moving foward. Once Cotto takes a punch from Floyd and sees they do nothing to him he will start putting a big assault on Floyd that would see Floyd hit the canvas a clouple of times before he stays down for good.

Cotto wins by Ko

those are two fighters that Mayweather has feared in the WW division. FOR FEAR OF LOSING AND GETTING KOed
