Good chance for Cotto here. If Cotto wins here then we get Cotto v Pacquiao in November. After that retirement for both probably.Comment

edit: but maybe floyd didnt have shoes on, idunno. The height/reach advantage will be insignificant imo.Comment

This is a win win for Floyd. If he wins, he still goes to jail which will offset his fighting schedule away from a Pacquiao fight. If he loses, he will never have to fight Pacquiao for a long time because Cotto will have dibs.Comment

Plus in one of the footages of the stare down they looked exactly the same height, cotto with a slightly bigger build. Also, mayweather didnt really look to have any sort of a reach advantage (although even if he did, its nothing that cotto hasnt dealt with before. Mosley has an even longer reach advantage IIRC)
Here's an example of how big of difference it makes when you're barefoot compare to when you have shoes on. I used to think Cotto was as tall or taller than Floyd too, but you can clearly see Floyd is the taller boxer between the two.Comment
