    Cotto will find this fight easier in terms of styles. Let me tell yu one thing, for a guy like Cotto that has fought Pacquiao, Clottey and Margarito.. He will find Mayweather too easy and Cotto might feel too comfortable in the ring and imposing his style. And remember one thing, Cotto can box very well. I think Cotto wins by UD

      And i agree, he is a family man who will bow out at his first sign of trouble
      So your saying if margs didnt swell up he would have won? I think cotto has a shot mayweather is good but not elite just like cotto. They are good for there era. Cotto gonna make it ugly, get him on the ropes and pound him him out. He gonna jab and do the occasional low blow. With the cuban trainer, heart, and to top it off this is the best fighter may has fought. I see may losing on da 5th. May will not knock cotto out, of course cotto will be mark up, He gets mark up with ease. Everyone before the marg 2 fight said cotto was shot, then he beats marg and now its caus of his eye.

        No what i am saying is that any punches to his eye by ANY fighter that night would've resulted in the fight being stopped. I mean Arum had to swingle his way into getting Margarito licensed last minute

        Dont include me in your "everyone" comment. Please show me a post where i ever stated that cotto was shot prior to the Margarito fight?

            WOW....

            Are you telling me that getting knocked out twice by Margarito & Pac and getting a close SD vs Clottey has prepared him for Mayweather?

                If you agree that he's not as agile, explain how his Pull Counter has become better than the ones on the video through his experience?

                  If Cotto can land something meaningful he can hurt Floyd. Lets not forget that Mosley wobbled Floyd. So Miguel has a chance, all be it a very small one.

                    Ive seen Mosley knock guys out with one punch, miguel isn't that kind of puncher. Also Mosleys right hand is much faster and stronger than Cottos

                      he has a chance, a small chance.

                      jab is key for cotto. he is naturally left handed, and fights orthodox.

                      de la hoya did well with the jab for a fair few rounds, maybe cotto can do a bit better.
