And we also know that Floyd is on another level.. So I'll still support Cotto cause he's my favorite fighter but I know that he is heavily outmatched and will be outclassed.. But I will put 100 dollars down on Cotto to win.. Just in case he lands a lucky punch.. Lol
      Well said. I've been a fan of both of these guys for a long time and I'm really happy for Miguel and his getting a shot at Floyd Mayweather. I always believed he would do well against Floyd and I stand by that. I just didn't know he would be so damaged by the time they fought.

        But Manny Pacquiao is a relatively mature, quiet person who doesn't hurl insults.

          I'm glad 1 of Floyd's fans mentioned that because i've noticed it too. You confuse me larry. It's like you're bipolar or something,lol!! Anyway Floyd fans do talk a lot of crap bout Cotto, then expect big props to be handed out after, crazy stuff.

            I think if you ask posters one on one they will acknowledge this is a good matchup. On the forum they trash it because it suits an agenda and, if you read alot of articles, many writers are basically saying don't buy this because its a joke fight that floyd is fighting only to make money.

            Hopefully its worth the cost.

              I have been to 3 out of his last 4 fights. I didn't go to the Mayorga one, I will root for Cotto because he is my favorite fighter but Mayweather is going to give him a lot of trouble.

                They talk about IN-RING Cotto. Miguel's boxing limitations and abilities.

                They don't talk about who in the Cotto family may be on drugs, or they don't make every conversation gay this-gay that. They don't obsess about fights within the Cotto family.

                They don't call Cotto a coward or a quitter (Mexican fans did that).

                I have noticed that Mayweather fans largely discuss technique, etc.

                  Saying floyd will obliterate cotto is not talking about cotto's ability as a fighter but its more about floyd being a superior fighter at this time and based on what we've seen of both in the ring, expect floyd to win handily.

                  The other is people, should floyd win, attributing the win to deficiencies in cotto when, in their mind the win is attributed to floyds skill and talent.

                      Yeah. If you criticize Cotto's left hook as being too wide to hit Floyd, Cotto fans won't post photoshopped pictures of you on all over the internet.

                      Different kind of fan.
