    I don't know if I agree with that. Even in rounds 6-7 it was Mosley who was back peddling a bit. Rounds 9-12 I think Cotto eased off and Mosley stayed some what active, but never was he putting Cotto in danger. But even with that being said, Cotto out landed him in the later rounds, especially the 11th.

        What I find interesting, besides the history of both Pac and Marquez, is the similar scenario, almost like "Ok...fine, I guess I'll watch" when Pac vs Marquez III was announced. Besides the very pro Marquez fans, even Mayweather fans and some Mexican fans were with the attitude of "C'mon man, POINTLESS fight now". Well, that wasn't actually the case, was it?

        Not to say Mayweather vs Cotto follows the exact same script, but something tells me we're gonna get a lot more than we expected and I see a lot of the same doubt towards, in this case, Cotto. I favor Floyd by decision, but I won't be surprised if it's tooth and nail down the stretch.
        when a fight is first announced people get mad but come fight day people think differently.

          Floyd will struggle early on. Cotto will have his moments but will end up losing 8-4 or maybe even by late round stoppage.

            Man don't disrespect cotto like that cotto isn't gatti stop that, i believe this is going to be a harder fight for floyd than people think. I believe Mayweather wins but come on man Gatti man Gatti was scared to throw punches watch the fight on youtube Cotto has excellent power and it will be at a weight he is comfortable at Cotto aint scared to throw and cotto will at least go to the body. I believe Mayweather will win win but if you think Mayweather gonna just walk threw him like he did Gatti you are crazy Cotto aint no scrub.

            Cotto best bet is to try to catch him with a big shot early that's when Mayweather is most vunerable like Shane caught him i can tell you one thing if Cotto catch him early like Shane did Mayweather is in trouble Cotto aint gone get tired in 2 rounds that for damn sure.

            The chances of Mayweather getting caught like he did vs shane are slim but he could happen and we know cotto come to fight so it's gonna be totaly different from the shane fight Cotto will be at a comfortable weight so he won't gas out as quick

            Alot of people don't understand when you are weight drained you gas quicker your punch resistance is lower it affects your chin and itaffects your punch out put your ability to move it affects your overall conditioning.

            At 154 cotto will be able to eat normal he won't have to burn up any muscle to make weight he will be strong and have a lot of energyand he will be able to take a punch better because of it.

            I remember Roy Jones moved back to 175 i think for the first tarver fight he moved from heavy weight so he had to loose about 25 lbs but it was all muscle he had to burn to make weight on some documentary or something they was like Roy ate ice cubes to make weight imagine how weak he was he is crzy for even doing that to his body. Imagine for 2 months all you eat is ice cubes so you can make weight and he wasn't fighting a bum Tarver is a legit fighter. Man talking about your punch resistance going down being tired how Roy Jones even made it through the fight is beyond me that was all heart or he's just crazy because if you burn up that much pure muscle in your body your body is never the same. Matter of fact you can die from doing that stuff to your body, and i don't even like roy jones but weight draining is a big deal Roy was never the same after that.

              He will definitely win easily though, and if he wants to he can break Cotto down and stop him.
              That's what I'm saying. I know he put a masterpiece on Gatti, but damn.

                Seriously, is there no end to the Floyd felching on this forum?

                  They should schedule the fight first press conference after the Super Bowl. Is that too early?

                    I'd def pick Josie Harris. She's been in there with Floyd and probably knows his thought of attack better than anybody else.
