    I know, I know. I'm just sayin'...if there's any way . I had that mindset of Cotto giving Floyd problems with movement even before this fight was signed. Still thought Floyd would win though. But after watching the face-off, I think Floyd believes Cotto doesn't stand a chance in hell. And that made me think twice.
    I think the only real chance Cotto has is a good shot that hurts him or knocks him out.

    I think Cotto going backwards is just not going to be effective. Especially against Mayweather.

    Cotto can't really fight backing up but he has the ability to outbox the right opponent. Mayweather certainly isn't one of them.

    Yeah, I know but I just really doubt Mayweather's overlooking him. It's just something he doesn't do. No matter who.

      Agreed. Makes no difference to me at 154 or 160 and I doubt we'd ever see it at 160. I just hope we get to see it, period.

        This definitely won't be a war. But good pictures.

          I think Cotto can hurt Floyd although I wouldn't bet on it. I don't think he has to necessarily have to back up but he'd be wise to test Floyd's 35yr old legs. Cotto is better than anyone Floyd has fought in a while. Is it likely that he wins? No. Causes some problems? Sure.

              I am really looking forward to this fight. I hope cotto has fully recovered from the Pacquiao fight and does well.

                I'm not saying anything outlandish by saying Miguel Cotto, an accomplished, experienced and confident champ, could give Mayweather problems.

                  Just going backwards in general. No way it's effective against Mayweather, IMO. Just not going to work.

                  I just disagree. I don't think he cause any problems at all.

                    I think you are

                    But we'll agree to disagree and come back to this after the fight.
