And Cotto is 5 years removed from his absolute prime. 2007 Cotto maybe would have been tougher.

Oscar then was a much harder fight than Cotto now. Mayweather has adjusted to the weight better and DLH hits much harder than Cotto. Look at their fights with common opponent Mayorga, whom DLH destroyed with ease when Mayorga had much less wear on him and that was due to DLH being more accurate and hitting harder than Cotto. DLH would have stopped the one eyed Margo in under 6 rounds.
Mayweather wanted to fight cotto for a long time, he is fighting him as soon as the fight was actually possible. You can thank Arum for it not being a possibility until now.Last edited by elfag; 04-24-2012, 10:28 AM.

Everything in Floyd's career, as far as making money and becoming the most well known guy in the sport, was riding on that fight. And it wasn't a terrible fight either. Oscar was a Top 5 SWW and the WBC SWW champ, was much much much bigger than Cotto is. Floyd just seemed tense while he was fighting, and even though he should have won the clear cut UD, he let the judges almost rob him of that win by cruising much of the fight.
