I guess it shows Floyd puts in the ground work, does his sit ups ect and is really just well conditioned that he took them without too much fuss though
They still score though and i bet he felt them, he probably still is today!

Originally posted by The Surgeon View PostI thought it was a real close fight on Saturday and Cotto was at his very best. By being at his best he forced Mayweather into going up a gear and proving that as well as being a sharp clever defensive fighter he is a tough, gritty and determined one too. Like i said i thought it was real close Floyd knows it too, he has said Cotto was his toughest ever foe. But that dont detract from Floyd IMO it only proves how good Miguel is or at very least was on this given night. THAT Cotto would beat Pacquaio. Im sure of it. And the closeness of the fight hasnt changed my opinion on Mayweather vs Pacquaio at all - Floyd wins! Manny has his strengths and a lot of em but he isnt good against counterpunchers and they dont come better than Mayweather....

Obviously u then have the weight issue and perhaps more importantly a lack of confidence having recently lost in brutal fashion to Margarito and having that tough close fight with Clottey. And that "trainer".... Please!
Pacquaio is great. No question. But i think the cat is out of the bag in terms of beating him stylistically, Cotto and Diaz will have seen this and i believe are capable of executing the correct game plan to grab the W if they fought again now.

Originally posted by The Surgeon View PostId have to disagree, i thought he was sharper against Floyd and quicker too. He was a bit more reckless vs Manny and it cost him big - u dont trade with Pacquaio.
