    regardless of even weight and the fact that Marquez is a featherweight not a WW, his style was made for FMJ. Marquez is a counter puncher, he is not very good at attacking.

    sheer ******ity, Cotto is a much harder style for Mayweather because he likes to attack.
    Cotto has never been #2 or 3 pound 4 pound in the world.

    JMM does everything better than Cotto.
    the only advantage Cotto has over JMM is size.

    now when comparing who will be a tougher fight for Mayweather.


    if you say cotto...Primarily based on size..
    then you are wrong.

    Because if that is the case.
    Then the Oscar of 2007 was and is a tougher fight for Floyd than a Cotto fight ever will be. because that Oscar was bigger, stronger, and had more power than cotto... and Floyd still won that fight.

    Size doesnt always wins fights.
    Skills win fights
    Brains wins fights
    Experience wins fights

    If sizes always wins fights we wouldn't have fighters winning titles in 3 4,5,and 6 weight classes

    Skills have a bigger part to winning fights
    than size does.

    History proves that!

    Juan M. Marquez is a better fighter than Cotto..
    JMM is better in every boxing catergory than cotto.
    JMM is smarter and has more experience than cotto

    and the only thing cotto has on JMM is size and power.

    but is size and power tHe primary weapon a fighter will have to have to beat floyd?

    when has that ever worked against floyd?

    Zab Judah showed you that a fighter who has some kind of skill set will give floyd trouble.

    Carlos Baldomir showed you that you will need more than size to beat floyd
    Deigo Corralles showed you that you will need more than power to beat floyd
    Oscar De la hoya showed you that you will need more than size and power to beat floyd.


    So with that said...

    How is Cotto a tougher fight than JMM?
    From a boxing stand point can someone explain

      Castillo showed you that size and agressiveness can give Floyd a run for his money.
      JMM wanted to beat Floyd at what he's good at. And Skills VS Skills, Floyd is much better than Marquez. Cotto could have made it physical against Floyd.
      JMM's punching power at 144 is non existent and his speed isn't there either.
      JMM at 144 is not the JMM who fought Pacquiao.
