    I never said Ortiz was better than Cotto, I said he's stronger and faster and he is.

    Cotto is the better boxer but a fight with Canelo or Ortiz would be very different than this one.

    Floyd allows you to come to him, he counters, Ortiz wouldn't do that. It would be a war vs either Canelo or Ortiz and I don't know if Cotto at this stage can keep up that pace for 12 rounds.

    This was a very slow paced fight, just the way both Cotto and Floyd like it.

      SO obvious how it plays out too. Khan starts fast, doesn't really bother Mayweather, then gets KO'd in the mid to late rounds because he's tired

        BUT

        I can honestly tell you from round 1 I saw a different Mayweather. He didn't look as sharp and a bit slower than usual. I think the decline has started, he is 35.
        Maybe, but look at B-Hop.

          I payed for it, and will be fine when the bill comes in. Saw it on a my big 240, 60 inch LED.

          I'll save the streams for Chavez Jr. fights.

          Kiss my ass.

            lol no...Floyd was in a much more competitive fight tonight. He won but it wasnt like those fights.

                Floyd didn't look quite as sharp tonight as he did against Ortiz, he was razor sharp that night. I think that was largely down to Cotto being a much bigger guy on the night though. It was physical which is draining.

                All in all, that was a great night for the sport and very much worth the money. Much respect to both guy's for a great fight. Anyway, it's 8am over here, I need a sleep.

                  i betted $50 on Cotto instead of paying it on PPV.
                  Stream is good.

                    Cotto is levels above Ortiz and even at this stage of his career Cotto destroys him. Hopefully this fight comes off so u can see it. Two different classes of fighter. Dont let the Berto fight fool u

                      Floyd couldn't get lead rights in tonight. That was one difference.
