5 reasons why Cotto has no chance against Floyd!

[Canelo Phresh]

This will be interesting.

Pac and Floyd are both extremely quick. The difference is, Pac's punches come quick and from all angles and you dont see them coming. With Floyd, even if you know where his punches are coming from, you still cant do anything about it. He's so quick it's still going to catch you. For example: When he leans forward with his right hand hanging, then lunges in and catches you with the straight right hand lead. You know he's going to throw it but cant do anything about it.

floyds paranoid about the leftovers theory. he's feeling that he needs to outperform manny to impress a skeptical crowd. i think he'll pick up right where he left off with ortz until the head butt stopped the action.

yeah you must have missed the pacquiao fight when pacquiao kept tagging him every time cotto tried to jab.

oh wait..... you must be one of those guys who kept whining about cotto not jabbing enough when everytime he did he got tagged with a left or a hook over it.


and if pac can time cotto , floyd will have a field day.

Lol, really?

Pacquiao beat Cotto mostly because his physical advantages. Fast, quick, and Cotto couldnt handle the speed. And come on? outbox? We really going to sit here and act like Cotto had a credible trainer to at least give him a decent camp and a good gameplan? Cottos trainer had no experience in world title fights, did he? Thats bull****. Theres a reason why fighters have trainers, if not why hire one? To just watch you?

Pacquiao beat Cotto because he was simply fast, could do whatever he pleased on fight night, and Cotto had no corner gameplan to at least slow him down. Cotto was basically fighting however he felt was fine. His balance was horrible and he just didnt know what todo after. I dont call it outboxed, though you can make a point for it, but it was mostly physical advantage than skill. IMO.

Funny that you're using an excuse that not even Cotto used. When asked about it, Cotto's response was "The weight wasnt an issue. I felt good. The problem was Pacquiaos speed. I didnt know where the punches were coming from"

Cotto: "I will not sacrifice my body again for Pacquiao"

[hugh grant]

Cotto: "I will not sacrifice my body again for Pacquiao"

Thats just an excuse now to excuse his performance. He never said it after the fight. He didnt sacrifice his body for Clottey, yet didnt beat him like Pac did.
If Cotto cant beat Clottey convincinly why should he be expected to beat Pac?

[Agent Mulder]

i hope they rob him

he dominates for 12 rounds and then Buffer comes on: "after 12 rounds, we go to the scorecards...judge so and so has the bout 115-113 Cotto...judge so and so has the bout 114-114 even...judge so and so has it 115-133...for the winner...FROM CAGUAS PUERTO RICO"

LOL. I think most ppl won't even protest! lol. that's how much people hate pbf.

Mayweather-Cotto is going to look more like Mayweather-Mosley than Mayweather-Ortiz, just my thoughts.

Mayweather was beating Ortiz handily, but Victor has more head movement than Cotto and is quicker when throwing his punches if you ask me. A lot of times, Cotto just backs up or stands there bouncing a bit, and than drops his hands to throw his punches, and he's not as quick with them as Ortiz is. I also think Floyd respectd the explosive attacks that Victor could produce, and he did with Shane to an extent. After the first few rounds, Floyd lost respect for Shane, and when Shane would drop his hands at all, Floyd tagged him and beat him up pretty good at will. If Floyd can get Cotto to back up and if he loses respect for Cotto, we'll see Floyd tagging him at will once Cotto drops his hands, much like the Mosley fight.

Remember you said all this, lol. Also if Cotto goes to Mayweathers body, he's gonna eat left hooks and right uppercuts on the chin until he crumbles in tears and blood!

He'll eat hooks anyways.. and Floyd's uppercut is one of his least potent punches. Its no pacquiao uppercut. If I were Cotto I'd far prefer to get tagged by some counter uppercuts than to be tattooed with the left hook or straight right hand. And if he has Floyd on the defensive that's his best bet in this fight. If he lets Floyd walk him down and tries to counter Floyd, good night.

If he manages to back Floyd up thats half the battle, get him to cover up then **** the body. Floyd in all honesty, doesn't really defend his body all that well. He just takes alot of body punches. Of any punch he eats the most, its body shots.

Its a long shot but I wouldn't say Cotto has absolutely no chance. Depends which Cotto shows up.

[Buckfever]

The primary reason that Cotto has no chance, is because the Cotto that had a chance we haven't seen since the 6th round of the first Margarito fight. Unless Floyd has lost something big time, or Cotto rediscovers himself. This fight is a paycheck for Cotto, for which he'll take a beating.

[rambov]

Cotto at 154 is dangerous and a huge threat. I expect this fight to be competitive until round 7. That is if cotto does not land a good punch and KO's Floyd before the 5th.

But Cotto is a slow starter and he has a history of beinn hurt early.

You see what I did there? You see why the outcome of this fight in inevitable?

[check hook]

Here's my list:

- Floyd is faster
- Floyd has a better chin
- Floyd is almost as strong as Cotto, and actually will be stronger by round 6, because;
- Floyd has better conditioning and Cotto will tire
- Floyd is the smarter boxer
- Floyd knows how to smother a left hook to the head and body
- Floyd is taller and has a longer reach
- Floyd has more heart than Cotto

Cotto needs to get lucky and whack Floyd with a huge shot to the liver or chin, or hope Floyd get's old overnight and has his first bad night in boxing. Luckily the weight also favourt him, at 147 he would certainly be stopped and may even be stopped at 54.
