3 Separate Would You Be Shocked Questions

[DLT]

Remember that all 3 of these are separate so dont bunch them together.

1- Would you be shocked if Floyd gets the better of toe to toe matchups

2- Would you be shocked if Floyd is physically the stronger man in the ring

3- Would you be shocked if Floyd is the harder puncher

I'd be surprised on number 3, because Floyd's punches are sharp and crisp, Cotto still is the bigger puncher.

I wouldn't be surprised in the first two, Floyd fights smart enough to get the better of things toe-to-toe, and his strength is probably the most underrated thing about him aside from his chin.

4corners has it right!

1- Would you be shocked if Floyd gets the better of toe to toe matchups

yes. As far as im concerned, floyd isnt an exchange kind of guy. At the same time, its close to one of the only times he is open to be hit. Would be a bad idea for him imo.

2- Would you be shocked if Floyd is physically the stronger man in the ring

I wouldnt be shocked, he very well might be, but i do expect cotto to atleast match him in strength, if not be stronger.

3- Would you be shocked if Floyd is the harder puncher

Kinda would be shocked. With that said, i think floyds punching power is underrated to an extent. He's more of a 'catch you quick' puncher, while cotto is more of a beat you into submission puncher. Their power is probably pretty close.

What He Said....

[Russian Crushin]

#1 and 2 will easily be in floyds favor

[NearHypnos]

No to either. I wouldn't even be surprised if Floyd's left hook to the body is better than Cotto's for this fight.

Cotto is a stronger puncher, but Floyd can put them where he wants and can hit surprisingly hard if he sits down in his punches. Don't be surprised to see a flash kd.


I think Cotto might have more brute strength early, but Floyd will stay strong throughout and has better body control and pacing.


I'm more curious as to what route Cotto will take for this fight.

[Light_Speed]

1-No

2-No

3-Yes, he'll do more damage based on superior accuracy and timing, not power.

[johnm is...]

No.

No.

Yes.

Concerning Cotto no. I think Cotto does have more single 1 punch power but I think Floyd can also take more punishment than Cotto can. So he'll probably hurt Cotto quicker than Cotto will hurt him.
