    floyd via UD


    i think cotto tries to box for 12 rounds and loses almost all of them

    maybe he'll land a couple jabs early and be making less of a retreat than floyd early and he might take a round or two

    he wont string three together, that's for sure

    cotto isn't a shell of what he once was, but even a time machine wouldnt get him a W in this fight

    cotto's best attributes are his boxing abilities, especially now that he doesnt use the hook to the body or move forward anymore
    they wont do him any good against floyd mayweather who is longer, much faster, and an all around superior counterpuncher and boxer.

        If anyone gets stopped in 9 it will likely be Cotto.

          Cotto will contend with a few good rounds, but I expect Floyd to take the UD if neither guy scores a KO/TKO. Realistically, I think Floyd will demoralize Cotto with his defense and counter-punching in the later rounds. The fight ends in a DQ after Cotto bites a chunk off of Floyds nose.

            I am pretty sure Cotto has only stopped three guys in the last 6 years before the 9th round.

            Quintana
            Jennings
            Gomez

            Hard to think Floyd gets added to that list~

              The only way Cotto stops Mayweather is by his other signature punch....the punch to the balls.

                  Floyd dominates Cotto.

                  There's a reason he's willing to fight Cotto at 154. Floyd knows what he's doing. Gameplan fellas.

                    Cotto needs to work Floyd's body.

                      This ^^^^^^^^^

                      Cotto's greatest assest will be his weakness, he's a converted southpaw... left happy.

                      He has this great jab with he throws on the move, kinda like a diagonal movement.... its crisp and does rock peoples heads back.... but after that he's hunting for the left hook, floyd will work this out and set up the counter

                      if cotto threw tht jab in more 2s,3s.... then maybeeeeeeeee

                      i see this as a UD for floyd with cotto landing some hard jabs early.... late stoppage if Cotto is damaged goods
