    Difference between Cotto, Winky, Forrest, & Floyd.....

    is they all came forward and stood their ground. Yes they boxed well but they also fought Shane. Floyd isn't a come forward fighter no more. Notice as soon as Cotto started moving backward Shane started breaking him.

    If yall think Floyd will be able to run and think Shane won't catch him yall in for a rude awakening

    Floyd's not going to run. He will circle, set, and reset but run I don't think so. Fighting on the back foot is not running. I never saw a fighter run for 40 fights, remain undefeated, and is a certified Hall of Famer. Boxing just don't work like that. Comparing what Cotto does to Floyd is flat out absurd. Cotto doesn't fight good going backwards that has been proven. Floyd breaks down fighters when he has to go to that backfoot and get good spacing. The funny thing is...when Floyd decides to go into the pocket in this fight and outbox Mosley upclose that's the only thing that is going to be a rude awakening to some fans. Not to me of course...because I know when Floyd's at his best its hard for anyone to beat him.

      Cotto did a good job on the backfoot i thought even if u did give Shane some of those later rounds but although i think Miguel is a fine fighter on the backfoot Floyd is Superb in that department.

      I worry shane dont have the legs for it no mo.


      The closer it gets the more im likeing Shanes chances tho and i really hope he wins
