    Your going with Floyd because you dont like Cotto? Wtf is that homie? Whack reason to vote for Floyd, Cotto is not my fav fighter either but damn call a spade a spade my friend.

      Massive shame Mayweather never fought Cotto in 2007.
      If you know anything about boxing which I like to think i do. I wouldnt even compare the two fighters or the out comes. Floyd fought him the way floyd would fight him and cotto fought zab the way cotto would fight him. Hell as much as i hate CLottey, I think Clottey beat Zab the worst. But you cant compare the two fighters cuz styles make fights. Thats why i dont understand why people assume because a fighter beats an opponent faster or kos him vs the way another fighter beats that same person, they assume that the fighter with the ko will beat the fighter that outboxed his opponent. Boxing doesnt work like that.

      Floyd fought castillo twice and outboxed him, Hatton stopped castillo with a body shot. Whos win was more impressive? Hattons of course. What happened to hatton when he met floyd? okay then!

        i say cotto because he droped and stoped zab. but floyd beat zab up as well and was playing with him. zab was hurt and frustrated. couldnt do anything. zab had cotto hurt a few times but could never finish. and zab never won the first 4 rounds he won 3 out of the first 4 floyd is a mental boxer and just getting use to him. zab won the first couple rounds against cotto as well..

        but yeah i still choose cotto because of the better finish. but mayweather took the least damage in the fight

          I completely agree with you. I was thinking the same thing as I was reading this thread.

            Cotto did worst to Judah, but he took a lot more Punishment to achieve what he did; that busted inner lip of Cotto was no joke. Cotto vs Judah was a bloody fight.

            I believed Judah was on his way to being stopped my Mayweather prior to the low-blow.
            If i had an option of choosing which win i would take, i would take Mayweather's win, because it means i would have taken less damage.

              Cotto got busted up by Judah and had to be taken to the hospital and treated. Mayweather beat Judah 119-109 on my card, I can see someone saying he lost 2 rounds tops[if you're really reaching].


              Not to mention Judah was suspended for a year after the Mayweather fight and took no tune up fight to fight Cotto. That's 400 something days out of the ring[he took a year and a half before he fought Cotto], comes back and busts Cotto up in 11 rounds before Cotto finally stops him.


              Mayweather's performance>Cotto's. You also have to take in consideration who did Judah do better against. And also stopping someone doesn't mean you did better. The Rounds Floyd won, he clearly won. The rounds Cotto won, he took his fair share of hits.

                Mayweather put a pretty good beating on Judah after he appeared to take the first four rounds off. You could see in the 4th he stepped up his output and pressure and really started tagging Judah with lead rights, left hooks and hard body shots.

                Cotto put the pressure on as soon as round 1 began, Judah had some success with the uppercut, and was able to stun Cotto but round by round Cotto started putting a beating on him and eventually forced him to his knees, the stoppage came not long after.

                Both were very good performances but i favor Cotto.

                  Cotto was special before he got the tar beaten out of him by margarito who was almost certainly wearing plaster in his handwraps


                  is he going to beat any of the top 10-20 WW's in history

                  i doubt it
                  he'd probably get blasted. he was never hard to hit

                  but his form now is a shadow of what it used to be

                    judah knocked mayweather down. the ref blew it. a flash/ off balance KD but surely that's a knockdown

                    won some easy rounds
                    and then lost the fight basically on his own terms (classic zab judah)



                    cotto beat the tar out of judah
                    zab never gave up because cotto was hurt so badly early and zab did it easily and with one shot


                    cotto looked more vulnerable but dominated
                    mayweather fought on an even field with zab early and then outclassed him late, never looking to be in harm's way


                    advantage cotto

                    a prime miguel cotto is an ATG WW
                    he'd lose to the best of the greats. he never had a great chin and got hit easily but he got back up and absolutely trashed top flight fighters
                    he was a hell of a fighter and i dont want anybody to forget it
                    What fucking top are you talking about?

                    Before that fight Judah had lost 2 in a row against Mayweather and Baldomir and had come off a 1 year lay off.

                    So what run at the top are talking about? If you weren't watching boxing at the time, don't go around making stuff up like nobody is gonna find out you're lying. The only chance Judah had of winning between Baldomir, Mayweather, and Cotto was that fight that lasted 1 round and ended as a no contest which shouldn't count as a tune up.

                      Zab would have stopt Cotto if it wasn't for the low blow and would have outboxed floyd if he trained harder on his stamina.

                      But i voted for floyd, he didnt need to cheat in order to win
