Comments Thread For: Dirrell: Mayweather Will Pick Cotto Apart Like Gatti

[Da Boxer]

Better quit that lyin 2:40, ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YE8OlcBDIr4 )he lets off a 7 punch combo(could have called it 9), but the longer it goes on, the more he starts opening up...Floyd is so fast, he throws punches EVERY TIME he sees the oppurtunity...that could mean 8 punches, 9 punches...he is on a freaking roll...See Pac throws flurries...A combination has 2 seconds or less in between each punch, so he might go 1, 2...3,4,5,6,...7,8....Its all impulsive, cuz he's so fast, that he's just doing it spontaniously...his reflexes are sharp as HELLL...Like I said before, compare THIS Mayweather, to the slow Mayweather who fought Ortiz, who only threw right hands, who had slow telagraphable punches...Floyd is fighting the same way he fought when he fought Marquez, except more punches, more pressure, and the same power he had when he fought Ortiz...all of these combined, he stops EVERYONE...I dont see ANYONE lasting 12 rounds with Floyd...he has finally put all the missing pieces to his style, and now he is the perfect fighting machine...You guys HATE it Man...I have to be honest, I have NEVER seen a fighter counter a six punch combination without getting hit, and throws fast laser accurate punches, in sharp spurts...Its AMAZING how much he has improved overnight...yall got me wanting to watch it again!!

Darn brother....are you on nut hugging mode today or what?

Well like Gatti, Cotto is blown up above his best weight and considerably past prime, so Andre might have a point.

Cotto's past his prime-still good, same as Gatti in 05'. Cotto is still a much better fighter than Gatti was.

Yes!

I think it's true that Cotto is able to play up to his opponents speed to a degree. I remember thinking he would look like frankenstein when he fought Mosley but he ended up matching the speed and even being faster in some of their exchanges. The same can be said for the first half of the Pacquiao fight too until he started to get overwhelmed.

I'm interested to see how fast Miguel's hands look in the early rounds compared to Floyd. I think Floyd is obviously going to be the faster guy but Miguel could surprise us. This will be an entertaining fight, I really can't wait.

cotto aint shlt, his to slow to beat mayweather, mayweather may treat him like gatti, it could be one sided

[-Spinal-]

Floyd looks how he looks depending on the opponents style. If you have no defense, yes, Mayweather will pick you apart. Cotto has no defense but he won't lose like Gatti, he'll lose like Cotto. He's gonna get Cotto'd.

well **** me, floyds lady friends got a voice!
this is the first thing ive heard this **** say that i agree with.
cotto by comparison has similar skills to the late great arturo gatti but, has a better mind in my view.
for example, he will not drop his hands and let anybody hit him just to rouse the crowd etc.
but, it wont matter because it will be a white wash im afraid which is a shame because miguel is in my top 5 fighters of the last 10 years rating above everyone who has beaten him so far.
floyd by very possible stoppage....EARLY.
he may not get really hurt but, hes gonna get hit...........ALOT.
cotto vs martinez would be the stepping stone for either to face floyd.
so far, sergio has not earned this chance just by beating a couple of our very own fiighters who are far from elite level at this point and a ko over P.W. (the ko that proppelled martinez to some kind of ring king for some reason) is not enough in earnings to face floyd in my view.

Sergio deserve to face floyd or pacman he has proven τ̲̣̣̥

times and again.floyd is scared to death to fight pac uncountable excuses,he alway have problem orthodox and very aggressive fighter
