    Is Ortiz a Poor mans Cotto?

    Why doesn't Floyd just fight Cotto? Is it because he lives too far?

    Great idea, does Mayweather get to drain him to 145 for the fight?

        Im really mad about this fight cause I cant believe how Cotto was a champion for so long and a Mayweather fight was never made. Ortiz beats Berto in a gun fight in which he got dropped twice, and all the sudden hes Mayweather worthy.

        And then some people actually think this is gonna be a good fight. Its really sickening how Mayweather keeps making people think he actually fights threatening opponents.

        He fights an old Mosley who hadnt fought in more than a year, but because his last fight was the beatdown of Margarito, everyone thinks it was gonna be a fight.

        Now he fights a Victor Ortiz who got stopped at 140 and got dropped against Berto in a fight he only one because of his heart. After Mayweather exposes his lack of skill, he will probably fight another 140 guy coming up in weight instead of Pacquiao.

            Yay and after we can have great fights like Mayweather vs Clottey/Margarito and a JMM rematch. All under Floyds demands of ring size gloves etc.

              I have to agree with you. As a boxing fan is very frustrating. And you Floyd fans want people to believe in him but come on man.

                Cotto and Ortiz aren't that a like.

                Ortiz looks like a bigger puncher. Southpaw. He's more of a head hunter.

                Cotto is a much better boxer. Better Jab. Fights Orthodox. More of Body puncher.

                  Cotto? Dudes still living in the world that Cotto matters to a person like Mayweather? Marg dug the grave and Pac dumped the body in... Mayweather fighting Cotto now would mean nothing, unless he does something Amazing.

                    Ortiz is a south paw Gatti with less heart. Droppable, fairly speedy, hittable and likes to war it, unless it's Maidana.
