    What gives you the idea that Cotto has a good chance? Was something he did against Foreman? Margarito?

    On his best day, Cotto had an okay chance against Mayweather working behind his jab and body-work. Dude is war-torn and not the same beast we remember from 3-5 years ago.

          C'mon Larry, this isn't '06-'09 Cotto. Think about that, it was two years ago he got his ass handled by Pac. You don't get younger/better years after losses like that.

          This is a $$ fight, pure and simple. Easy work for Floyd, just like he and Roger said.

            A lot of people are overrating this fight. It's gonna be a Mayweather win at the end of the day. There's no other result to this fight. That would be the result with Mayweather vs any fighter from 140 to 160, with Martinez being 50-50. I can see many other boxers around 140-160 put up a better fight against Floyd than what I think Cotto will do. I can see Bradley putting up a better fight, Pacquiao too, I can see Peterson putting up a better fight, Mike Jones, Andre Berto, Lara, Kirkland, Williams, Pirog, Strum. Cotto probably puts up a better fight than Chavez Jr against Floyd.

              I keep saying this. Cotto in his prime was just an okay fighter. He had an okay chance against Floyd, in his PRIME. Now? No chance. This is an at least top 50 ATG vs a borderline hall of famer. What do people expect to happen?

                It's funny as the days go by how this fight get's closer and closer. This is going to be an ass kicking.

                      To be honest, Cotto is the toughest test Floyd has ever had. Coming off the Margarito win, Cotto is full of confidence and he knows this is his last chance to be the best.
