    Agreed. This has been my prediction since they signed, though he may get into problems early if he's too agressive off the bat, which is the risk to that prediction.

      Tell me about his stamina, how is it looking for a 35 year old. Is he breathing through the mouth or is he the same old Floyd who never looks tired.

      How's his footwork, handspeed. And most importantly, how is his defense, did you see him be elusive, did he get tagged by any silly punches?

      Did you see him use the jab often or just throwing power punches, was he going to the body a lot?

      Thanks in advance, just answer what you remembered.
      Same old Floyd. As for his stamina....the rounds were long as hell. Not gonna give too many details. Just know Cotto is gonna get hurt. I like Miguel though, but I dont see how he can effectively prepare for May 5th. Floyd isnt taking this fight lightly.

        Plenty of people tipping it in this round. I'm thinking about a small bet on it. I can get 19:1 for that round. Incidentally the oddsmakers think it's more likely Floyd will take it in rds 7, 8 or 9 which is paying $17 in the round betting. Or i might bet on a stoppage in rds 10-12 which pays $8.

          I don't believe there is anyone from 160 down to 147 that can beat Mayweather, I truly believe that, including Martinez

            Been saying this all year. From 140-160 no one beats Floyd, Martinez is 50-50 as of now.

              6 weeks out and Floyd looks like he could fight this weekend, no bull****. I can't imagine how he will look next month, wow

                Hope cotto got good sparring partners, that will be key in his preparation, if not he will be the 43rd victim, maybe by knockout

                  I still see Mayweather beating Cotto by decision, in dominating fashion. But if he can stop him in 10 or less, he'd just be doing what he's supposed to do to a fighter like Cotto, without really having the power to do it.

                      LIke he's really doing anything though. The last of them is pretty much Serio Mora and Alfonso Gomez. Mandredo Jr. retired after that JCC jr fight and Quinnlin retired Brinkley
