Comments Thread For: Team Cotto: Weight Was Breaking Point in Pacquiao Talks

[joseph5620]

Than why did he outbox Pac in four rounds on each jugdes scorecards? It wasn't until he tried to KO Pac where he messed up. He even outboxed Pac in round 10. Cotto is in the same league. What is their league? Just them two? Is there really a league for only two fighters? Pac man is very one dimensional to a lot of people, including Floyd. Floyd respects Cotto more than he does Pac.

Why did he get beat up the next eight rounds? And Cotto was by no means winning big after the first four rounds.

Cotto ran from Pacquaio in the 10th. That's not the same as "outboxing" him.

Ya'll really think Cotto can ****k with Mayweather? Come on man...that's a bunch of bull****. I'm not knocking Cotto like some haters on hurrrr. I love, respect, and admire Cotto. He's one of my favorite boxers. However, against Mayweather he's going to get that ass beat. Sure, his jab is one of the main components needed to fight Mayweather, yet we all saw how Pac took it away in thurrr fight.

Pac simply countered Cotto's jab with a right hook urrrytime Cotto threw it, which enabled Pac to unleash a flurry of punches from urrry angle. Floyd will not do that, but he WILL counter Cotto's jab in a similar fashion with a right hand. Mayweather is not going anywhere. He's going to walk Cotto down and punish him. Cotto can't take it to the chin like Mosley, which is why Mayweather's punches will break him down. Once Cotto stops throwing the jab, and becomes hesitant as a result of May's counters May will step on the gas and tax that ass. There's nothing Cotto can do to Mayweather. I will be highly dissapointed if May doesn't get a KO or at the very least a TKO.

I don't want to sound like these haters who discredit Cotto, but real talk...Yuri, Mayorga, and Margarito aren't Mayweather.

Of course its a different story , Cotto is NOT weight drained for starters , you guys just dont get it , Pac WILL NOT FIGHT Cotto without a Catch Weight , he was going to walk away if Cotto was not forced to 145 , do you really think the couple of pound meant nothing , if so you got to pretty short sighted or straight up gullible when you know they WOULD NOT fight without getting that CW .

And Now as Cotto has moved up , he cant go back to 147 , weight sticks its not like a guy in the street , its a F1 athlete , it would be worse for him trying to make 147 today than what 145 was , again Pac wants a weight draining CW ,,, he is such a manipulating a fraud .

Mayweather can crack. He's not a Maidana type puncher, but he will hurt you with his punches and make u think twice. May CAN and WILL hurt Cotto.

Most people don't know **** about boxing homie

The 148 thing was just a freaking joke, they might as well just said "Well, we're ready to accept a 147.1 catch weight"

How ironic. What does Cotto's resume look like in his last few fights?

Ok I was a bit emotional and May's entire resume isn't exactly ****ty but at least Cotto's recent resume is ****ty for a reason. Have you ever boxed? It's 75% mental. When you get a beat down after winning such amazing fights and being undefeated, the way Cotto got beat down in Margacheato 1, that messes you up. Besides losing his trainer and uncle, Cotto lose his passion for boxing after that fight. He's stated publicly his heart was not in boxing for years after the cheato fight. Anyway, that totally showed in the ring. He lacked the same confidence, lost his balance, killer instinct, etc. So what I do praise Bob for is that he slowly built Cotto up and when he lost he slowly built him BACK up. Foreman was a green guy without a KO punch but he was expected to outbox Cotto by many and had outweighed Cotto by quite a few pounds. He, like May, is also no pitty pat puncher like his resume may lead one to believe. But his power wasn't enough. May has the advantage of being a great boxer so he might win, but Cotto is a small JMW and has taken good shots. Mayorga, while a bum, was a build up for Margarito and a very heavy, aggressive, powerful puncher. Then, he fights the man who started all his woes and gets a TKO. He would have gotten a UD if not for the eye but in that win Cotto showed why he was always the better man. To me Mayweather has no reason for avoiding big risk fights the past many years. I mean, Cotto beat Shane years before May did and if Cotto would have taken a year off to come back and fight Marquez he would have 1) Been disowned and bashed worst than May and 2) He would have KO'd the guy, Cotto's too powerful for Marquez.

Everyone May and Cotto have both fought, Cotto TKO's except for I think Shane or one other fighter, while May goes to a decision. I remember SO MANY people saying Cotto had no chance vs Cheato 2, orbital damage, no plaster or not. They knew Margs wasn't a great fighter but a force to be reckoned with no less, a man who never stops, and they thought Cotto couldn't take the pressure, wouldn't adjust. But he beat him convincingly and proved many wrong. But now Margs was never a tough guy to beat. Whatever. Floyd avoided Margs and was actually smart, the ****sucker was cheating.

Cotto ran from Pacquaio in the 10th. That's not the same as "outboxing" him.

Umm, he tried to KO Pac and got rocked, did you not see it? I never said he was winning big either. You are so funny. You hate on Cotto for "running" so PLEASE tell me you do not praise others, like maybe fellow mexicans who "box." Watch the tapes back to back and tell me it ain't the same **** with Marquez "running" from Pacman rounds 10 - 12 in their last fight, right? C'mon you're not a crying sore-loser baby right? He lost that fight. Nobody told him to "run" during the championship rounds. And you also agree that ODLH ran from Tito the last IDK, 5 rounds of their fight by that logic right?
