Better version of Cotto: Manny version or May version?

[Spoon23]

How can he be better when he is dehydrated with less muscle mass , lol , its like saying your better over the quarter mile with a dead spark plug and low octane fuel , your off !! what part of that you get , your timing is off , your snap is off , all just by a little bit , but a little bit in this game at this level is the difference in being hit or missed , and in landing or missing , it effects your whole game . sheeese you know nothing of the fighter and think of them as wind up toys .

It's called old age. All humans go through that kid.. Most especially the aging process speeds up when beaten up to death, hence his fights with Marg and pac lol.. But I know you won't get that..

to close: Cotto is already damaged goods. Right now he is a Blown up 154 where he is actually a natural welterweight who just aged to higher weight coz that's what old men have deal with when you age you gain more weight. All it says is that Cotto is Old.

The Floyd version on paper is better in every way, physically and psychologically.

Age wise, Cotto still isn't at a point where one could say that he is over the hill. And fighting at 154 is a plus.

Physically, the fact that he isn't coming off of brutal losses (Margarito) and close decision wins (Clottey) benefits his body. Psychologically, he is in a better place since he avenged his loss to Margarito and should be more confident coming into the Mayweather fight, then when he was preparing for Pacquiao.

Cotto last 3 opponents in Clottey, Rubio(may be not as much), Marg before Pac is a lot better, harder, and more legit than Cotto's recovery fight (against Foreman,Mayorga, and a beaten up and blind Margarito)...He won all of those, but obviously those 3 fights before Pac will not be as dominating because they were legitimately harder fights.. Now go whack off in your ***** altar...

hes coming off a very satisfying win that helped his mental game alot when he fought pac he was coming from a fight people said he lost

All boxing experts too will say beating up as a fighter will always give a fighter wear and tear..

It's like a car, a beaten-up fighter has more mileage. He may look fast but it actually full of rusts..

Cotto is close to being a jalopy.. A battle worn fighter cashing out.

This doesn't help in Floyd's legacy should have been pac his fighting..

Not sure what your problem with my post was. You're gonna have to improve your comprehension and communication skills. They're very poor.

And I'm no ***** or part of the *****-******* Paradigm.

you know what---cotto lost to manny in november of 2009----and won his next 3 fights---whereas, cotto lost to margarito who possibly had loeaded gloves in july 2008, and had a terrible performance against clottey---who even manaed to bang manny's face up some--and the fight was at catchweight and cotto was with arum who put pressure on him---it's not easy fighting with all of these situations---floyd is fighting a new cotto with restored confidence---if manny battered cotto so bad, he would have not looked too good against his next opponent--he did--he fought at a weight he felt good at---mayorga can make anyone look bad---and cotto beat a clean margarito so floyd is fighting the better version of cotto---the free agent---the champion--and floyd is not making it a catchweight bout like manny did with cotto and margarito---

arum gave manny all of the outside ingredients to beat cotto---he threw cotto out like kaput----dog**** right in manny's direction--and manny could have possibly been on ped's, who knows--his actions that followed that victory didn't help his cause---

came into the Manny fight 2-1 in his last 3....one of those was a life and death with Clottey that many felt he lost...3-0 coming into the Floyd fight with ALL 3 wins by stoppage....confidence wise, he just murked the ghost that has haunted him for 3 years.....so he's in a good place as far the mental part goes imo....a better place than he was against Manny imo

I agree with this... Its not just about weight, but mentality as well as a better camp.

[Spoon23]

What more could of Cotto done in the second Margarito fight other than win every single round (but 1) and break Margarito's eye for the second time?

Yup cotto beat up Marg's eyes good. And we all know who caused that bad eye first.

It's all speculations you are telling.. A man who got beaten up will forever be psychologically hampered, while a never beaten man is better mentally of having that psyche of invincibility.

It just how it is. A confident fighter never been beaten bad will have a better mind set.. Coz a beaten up fighter will always have the ghost of the past.

Cotto would always look **** against Clottey and Margarito.They're big and

too strong for Miguel Angel Cotto.He did not look good against Mayorga or

Foreman.It's the same Cotto.He is good, but will struggle against the best of

the division.
