    You don't necessarily need power to stop somebody. Hatton had fought big punchers before stepping in the ring with Floyd and we all saw what happened. If you hit your opponent with clean shots that he doesn't see coming round after round after round...you got a recipe for a late TKO. Clottey doesn't hit hard but at some point he had the commentators saying "Cotto's corner might have to stop it".

          Yes... But not the style, i dont think it would be a one punch ko but volume would do the job, just not floyds style

            Anybody could have one punch ko'd Hatton that night.

            Juan Lozcana damn near one punch KO'd his ass...with a check-hook no less.

            Where was Pac's crunching power against JMM at WW..??

            Floyd put JMM on his ass at WW...

              Floyd's sitting down on his punches a lot more these days!
              That punch would of dropped Cotto no doubt.

                  Floyd sure did, but he didnt try to KO Marquez. Same for Cotto, I think if Cotto gets Floyds respect with his decent power, Floyd will pot shot and outbox Cotto to a decision, however, I still have a feeling its a 10th round stoppage for Floyd.

                    Of course he has the power... If he didnt cats would walk through his supposedly feather fisted punches. a 167 ortiz didnt run through them, Mosley didnt, no one really does. Floyd brings pain that jab tO the pit of thE stomach is the most underrated thing in his arsenal IMO...



                    I think hes gonna fold cottos ass up like a lawn chair. You got kids on here saying Floyd is scared, but Floyd asked for smaller gloves, so we are truly about to see. You dont ask for smaller gloves if you dont plan on giving a pure ass whoopin!!!

                    SPEED RESILIENCY AND THESE FOOLS WILL GO BACK TO BARKING ABOUT PACMAN MAY 6TH...LOL
