Comments Thread For: Roach Gives Cotto a Good Chance To Beat Mayweather

[check hook]

Floyd's going to stand his ground and counter Cotto, HARD.

PBF really looks pretty hard to beat right now...

his public image nothwithstanding...

on top of his natural talents, his skill level is really high, regularly trains like a madman, and looking at the boxing landscape at 160 below, i reckon very few can really beat him..

Do people think Mayweather is gonna try and take advantage of Cotto's perceived weakness to pressure and walk him down like he did with Mosley? Or get on his bike like we havent seen him do for a while? OR just stand his ground and counter moving back only when need be?

[Tobi.G]

the question is if Cotto ca take Mayweathers counters well or not. If he can take Floyd shots well i think he could outwork him. They fight at 154 and thats better for Cotto. When Floyd fought at 154 agains DLH he had problems and it was a close fight. And DLH was alerady far past his best at that time.

i feel they (team cotto) will take a page from the castillo handbook...

stay with PBF, ( which is really very tiring) and fight a disciplined gameplan... and unleash some sneaking body shots...

Roach also had Haye knocking out Wladimir so I wouldn't worry too much about what Roach has to say.

This is wat im telling ppl floyd wont win with 15 punches per round cotto will outbox him when have you seen cotto lose to a boxer he lost to a guy who cheated and another who drained him

You are either Peurto rican or ******ed if you think this version of cotto outboxes Mayweather, You are agreeing with the same roach who said live on ESPN that "Mayweather would never fight Mosley" just because Pac ducked Mosley when he was perceive as a threat....Yeah Cotto would "Outbox" Mayweather lol.

Your loyalty is making you delusional. I would have given him a punchers chance had he fought Floyd before he lost to Margarito. Don't live or die off of what Roach says, Floyd don't only throw 15 punches in every round. What's gonna happen in the rounds he throw more than 15?

Mayweather can do whatever he wants with this version of cotto, He can walk him down, potshot him early and then walk him down by the 6-7th round when Cotto normally gets tired, Am expecting a totally one-sided beat down in this fight, I dont see how this version of cotto can catch Mayweather with anything big because Cotto is just too slow.

If Cotto can use his very effective Left Hook to the Body;

Then, Mayweather Jr will gonna have some problem.

Hit the Body, that's the key to victory...
