Comments Thread For: Miguel Cotto's Trainer Confident Mayweather's '0' Will Fall

[hitking]

I have developed a healthy respect for Cotto over the years. But all signs point to him getting dismantled on May 5.

..... and erik morales never existed.

aww man that was because of blood test and socks that weren't made from cotton.

I honestly believe this is an easier fight for Mayweather than Ortiz was. Cotto is stuck in his ways and leans too far forward...he will be eating rights and uppercuts all night.

Once Mayweather takes the jab away, either by countering overtop or out-jabbing the jabber, it's over.

refer to Clottey-Cotto

I love Cotto. He’s one of the best fighters of this era. I just think Floyd will take over late and start to walk him down since Cotto has been walked down before. Even in his wins against Clottey and Mosley he was getting walked down. I think Floyd is a lot stronger than you guys know. I also think the breach in Miguel is he doesn’t like accurate punchers. Margarito and Pacquiao, kept touching Miguel. Margarito is slow but his left uppercut couldn’t miss in that 1st fight. Floyd does not apply the volume those guys do, but he is every bit as accurate. I’m not saying the fight won’t be competitive but over time, Floyd should separate himself.

floyd will separate himself early, winning 11 rounds.

cotto was a good fighter, but margacheatos plaster and the beating pac

gave him have him physically deteriorated.

cotto will be walked down like you said by round 6

cotto wont land one left hook to the body or head, floyds right elbow will

be hitched to his hip and he will land lots of check hooks early with straight

rights late in the fight.

easy money for floyd

I don't see Floyd dominating Cotto the same way as Manny dominated him. On the other hand, i don't see Floyd consistently getting hit and bruised up like Manny was against Cotto either.

Actually it was 41. He fought and beat Castillo twice.

But he fought 42 times so 42 have tried.

I agree. I think it'll be a different form of domination. I think he's going to TKO Cotto by way of cuts (or maybe corner stoppage when it seems it's helpless). Then again, Cotto could fight differently and basically retreat and avoid punishment all night and loose a snoozer.


I love Cotto and I wish he would beat the hell out of Floyd, so I'm rooting for him. Don't see it happening though and I hope I don't have to see him get the living eff beat out of him. Wish him luck and the best.

Cotto is still undefeated in my eyes. Margarito and Pacquiao didnt beat Cotto. Plaster and steroids did.

Plaster and the highest quality steroids on the market beat Cotto. Cotto is unbeaten then.
But Cotto even though on paper is unbeaten like Floyd, bottom line is he was beaten badly in the actual fights that he was cheated in. So either way you look at it, even though Floyd will be the first to beat Cotto if he beats him that is. The win will be tarnished as everyone could see with their own eyes the beatings Cotto got by Margacheato and Pedman, god bless Cotto.
I think Cotto can beat Floyd as well.

I don't know why, but I see both of their faces swellin up. but somebody's not used to punishment... will be the difference... get em' Cotto!!

We will see on May 5th. If his trainer tells Angel to hit Mayweather elbows as hard as he can so he can't protect himself and throw punches. I would say yeah he's got a real good chance of taken that o from Mayweather Lol.
