    Floyd loses 3 rounds against the 6 southpaws in his career, so he's "weak" against them?

        I'm not trying to explain Margo's flaw. I just don't see Cotto's as being lefty fighters and saying that it is lefties is IMHO untrue.

        If you look at the fighters you've mentioned you must remember that Judah hurt Cotto not because he was a lefty but because Cotto is vulnerable to uppercuts based on his defense which leaves him more susceptible to uppercuts than other punches.

        Corley just landed a nice hook when Cotto was opening up but nothing more, the same thing that happened between him and PBF. To read more into those dominating performances is grasping for straws.

        I'm a boxing fan who likes Cotto (amongst a slew of others) I'm not one of these "Boxer fans" who watch the sport for one guy and rarely watches the sport outside of there boxer or his immediate likely competition.
