    No, It means hes going to beat the **** out of Cotto!

      Gillie dissing Cassidy there. Also claims he ghostwrote for Lil Wayne.


      Anyways...

      Cotto fans: Yo, Henry the truth. Fights just like Cotto, b!

      Cotto fans after Henry spars with Floyd: Doesn't fight like Cotto at all, please man, they're nothing alike. Cotto looks like Pernell Whitaker compared to Henry.

          Hopefully he overtrained.. hehe. Cotto is gonna whoop that azz and expose the fraud, even this post-plaster beating and post-pac beatdown version of him.

            Idk, I think Floyd's going to beat Cotto up because I already thought. I don't know if we should base it off something Ishe Smith told us he heard.

              To be honest with you, I'm not that all bothered about him beating up Henry. It's the sharpness which I'm pleased to hear about. Which means he'll get time to work on other things. I remember the first open workout session he did for the Ortiz fight, he wasn't looking that sharp for a while, whereas now it sounds like his timing is all there.
              that was just ring rust.. he had wayy too much time of between fighting Mosley and fighting Ortiz. this time he hasn't been out of the ring for as long.

                Floyd is always ready and in shape, nothing new, he's still in for a tough fight on May 5th.

                  I find it funny how different the stories are that come out of Pac and Floyd's training camps. Pac is always distracted and getting his ass whooped, and Floyd is always a brutal killer destroying all his sparring partners from day one.

                      That's why we should expect a different, better Floyd to the one that fought Ortiz. Even Mosley (because Floyd was nervous about Mosley's power). Cotto at this stage presents nothing to make Floyd fear him.
