Mayweather vs. Cotto post fight Thread -DON'T make new threads about the fight

[Optimistic]

You're an idiot.

Terrible thread.

[Jim Tom]

Must have counted the crowds' cheering and the punches that Floyd slipped, ducked and blocked as LANDED punches for Cotto.

In other words, an idiot who doesn't know how to score a fight.

I wouldn't expect to get such people on a boxing forum unless they watched a poor quality stream anyone who thinks Mayweather lost should be in a mental health institution.

I think Mayweather is losing his legs...... he took a lot of shots from Cotto....

[Toyman]

yes, struggling to defeat + getting a bloodied nose from pac's leftovers proves floyd is #1 p4p lol

[ChampBox@PR]

Its pretty clear after last night that Cotto's skills just aren't what they used to be. While brave and determined, he was no match for Floyd Mayweather. Ten years ago, things might have been different. But, age affects all fighters differently. Cotto will make a wonderfully entertaining journeyman and ambassador for the sport.

And kudos to team Mayweather for having the sense to wait until Cotto's skills were in decline to fight him. This is standard operating procedure for Mayweather and it was a smart move for the money. Now waiting for Mannie to get old is another story since Floyd's age is the factor between them. I suspect Floyd will continue to dodge Mannie in the same way he dodged Kostya Tszyu. In short the fight between Mannie and Floyd will never happen.

Because his only losses came at the hands of the 2 best fighters in the world and a guy who was probably cheating?
