Comments Thread For: Mayweather Goes To War, Defeats Cotto in Twelve

[FALLENSOLDIER]

so cotto lost, but...
cotto did more damage to mayweather than he did to pac,
and cotto had mayweather in the ropes all thru 12 rounds,
and cotto was aggressive all 12 rounds,

pac dropped cotto twice and had cotto back pedaling from the 5th round on...

pac is 4 (cotto, hatton, delahoya, mosley) up to 1 (marquez) on mayweather...
and the funny thing is, mayweather fans bring up marquez (thats all they have is marquez to brag about) when talking about pac, but never mention how pac destroyed hatton, delahoya, cotto and even mosley

Didnt cotto damn near bust pacs ear drum??? What are you talking about?? Didnt he look like a goddamn mummy????
DIDNT HE HAVE ALL THAT GAUZE ON HIS DAMN HEAD???
This was a healthy Miguel cotto, this Floyd at 154 would have been too strong for pac.... Didnt pac just rob someone last fight??
After how pac struggled against marquez, he would have gotten beat up all night, and you better hope Bradley comes to be friends.... Remember this weight class is too much for Pac...... No way this cotto loses to pac, hence pac required the catchweight.....

PAC WILL NEVER BEAT FLOYD, YOU SAW FLOYD GET ON ARUM AND TELL HIM TO MAKE THE FIGHT..... FLOYD IS WILLING TO FIGHT PAC AFTER A JAIL STINT... THATS HOW MUCH RESPECT FLOYD HAS FOR MANNY....

YOU KNOW YOU ARE GREAT WHEN YOU GET A BUSTED NOSE AND PEOPLE THINK YOU LOST A 12 ROUND FIGHT.....



ON A SIDE NOTE BOXINGSCENE DIDNT ****IN CRASH!!!!

And good job pedro diaz, he did a hell of a job with cotto. he proved he's a good trainer.

[GRUSTLER]

You think this Cotto is better? How much better? Who would favor? You would favor this Cotto over Pac?

I just think it's a style thing more than anything. I think Pac has the style, stance mindset to always dominate Cotto. But, I think Floyd won decisively too. But, i think Pac has an easier time with Cotto than floyd would. However, Floyd would have an easier time with JMM than Pac could ever dream of doing. Just a styles thing. That's all it is. This Cotto is no different. That Cotto would have been the same fight with this Floyd as well.

I honestly think that the trainer made the difference this time.

dude stfu and kill yourself

So says the man obsessed with the Boricua Joaquin Phoenix....lol

[indystress]

Mayweather dominated

and pac destroyed cotto...and hatton, and delahoya, and mosley...
hey, atleast floyd/floyd fans can brag about his fight with marquez, in which floyd ignored the catchweight, paid off the overage weight fee...ignoring to make the catchweight is much worse than pac having cotto lose 1 pound off of his normal 146 official weigh in weight for their 145 catchweight...and needless to say, the sucka punch against ortiz

115-112 was the true score for Floyd... Cotto do a great fight if you see Floyd easy.. Then that weed was good.. Everyone see it close and a war fight..

[4Corners]

cong**** to floyd...that was a masterful performance.

props to cotto as well...he performed better than expected. i wanna see him against canelo and i think cotto will beat him. and good for gbp to shelve their plan to put the ginger kid against floyd.

Skills, legs, speed, he looked the exact same as he did against Mosley and Ortiz, not sure why theseguys are saying he's "slipping".

And I agree, Alvarez shouldn't even sniff a Floyd fight until he beats a Kirkland, Cotto, Molina, gets 2-3 wins over Top SWW's. He'd get toyed with by Floyd.

Floyd looked solid. People overreact when he doesn't win 11-1/12-0 or some s**t.

He won 118-110/117-111 to me. Judges had it perfect.

I want to see Cotto-Canelo.

[check hook]

It was a great fight by two world class fighters! That said, the weight bothered Floyd, A LOT! You could tell in the mid rounds, to my surprise Floyd showed rare fatigue, an was very slow at times(overtrained?), probably from being pinned up against the ropes too often, Floyds still numero uno for now but father time is definitely not too far out now, cotto was able to tag floyd with shots that he would not have a few years ago, an then floyd would drop his hands floyd has to realize hes 35 now and start managing his camps a little better too I think he peaked weeks ago, it was nice to see Floyd test the water at 54 again but it should be his last fight at the weight, Floyd's no middleweight all in all not great but another very good performance by Floyd i give it a B-

I agree, the weight bothered him. He's better at 147, and he overtrained imho. He looked more tired in those mid and late rounds than i have ever seen him. Father time is getting him.

Yea I thought so too.....

How many fighters do you know that never got a bloody nose? Even Whitaker got caught. You can't dodge punches forever. Pacquiao got his mouth busted open by Marquez - Floyd left that fight unscratched. So what are you trying to pull?

Floyd got a bloody nose. Did you see Cotto's face? It's boxing.
