    Floyd is better off the ropes than anybody in boxing.

    Cotto had Manny's no-defense as.s on the ropes and couldnt do shi.t.....how the hell is he going to treat Mayweather like a punching bag.?

    Cotto cutting loose on the ropes is a highlight-reel counterpunch KO waiting to happen..

    You'll see...

            Haha, who said anything about trading punches?

            Floyd isn't going to be trading anything. He will stand his ground, throw leather, and not get hit in the process. Just re-watch the Mosley fight for an example.

              that almost cost him the fight against old man Mosley, so lets not talk like it aint a possibility.

              In fact for multiple reasons I really hope he does stand toe to toe and attempt to be the aggressor.

                The way people are talking about Mayweather standing in the pocket and never moving back.....he would be knocked out. Floyd is going to move in this fight. He might stay in the pocket here and there but he isn't going to trade shots with Miguel. Floyd can talk all the **** he wants about being stronger but he isn't and if he tries to go man v man, you throw and then I throw he will be on the canvas knocked the *** out.

                  he'll probably trade a little and if he realizes he's at a disadvantage, he'll go back to what he's comfortable with. floyd says a lot of things but in the end, he'll do what's best for himself.

                    He doesnt trade, he isnt mayorga or gatti. He intends to fight aggressively, that is different from trading. He will be backing cotto up at times and coming forward and staying in mid range and close, but that doesnt mean he want to trade punches like say morales and barrera would do when they got tagged they would come back with all offense and defense went out the window for a few seconds.

                      Hes stronger than cotto and better conditioned. Cotto will be feeling it in the late rounds, it will be an ass kicking. Strength is different than punching power.

                      Winky-Trinidad is another example and they talk about it during the fight. Trinidad hit harder, winky is stronger.
