Not trying to discredit Cotto in anyway. Just felt like Floyd wasn't at the peak of his sharpness. Not saying he is over the hill haha, just could tell (or at least I think) that life is creeping up on him. All great fights start to lose a step, feel like he is just scratching the surface of that now.Comment

the best Mayweather was at 140 and below he was under 30 then fighting guys more his size...every athlete declines after that age but he is by no means shot or anything...dude is 35 but his skillset will keep letting him succeed, he never just depended on being a supreme atheteComment

Really he does a lot of things that will allow him to age well, his mileage is pretty low for a guy that has that many fights and that many championship fights. Plus he is very crafty and grounded in fundementals. He also lives a rather clean life and he stays in very good shape year around not to mention his insane work in the gym.
That said he can't avoid the ravages Father Time, aslong as he accepts reality about his body he can make it work for a while but nothing lasts forever and his career is already insanely long for a top end boxer.Comment

If it was the margin of defeat he was upset about...i understand. He's a fighter wirh a lot of pride who appears to have put a lot into this fight and had a game plan that was executed very well. It's hard to accept the best you can do is 118-110 after all that hard work you put in
But as far as winning the fight? Nah...theres no blueprint on how to beat Floyd but if he outworks you? Take a seat. You'll never get that decision.Comment

I advise you seek an optician, URGENTLY. Closer than the judges scorecard but the only round i can safely say Cotto won was eight where he did clearly outbox Mayweather. However Cotto cant take as many shots per round as he did and expect to get the Decision. Floyd was always in control.Comment
