yeah floyd does have a problem with lefties but pacquiao has a problem with crafty counter punchers. pacquiao high offensive style will just give floyd opportunities to catch him. thats why i hope they fight because they both have qualities that the other guy has struggles against. it would be interesting to who will make the adjustment. i have to give mayweather the edge in that department. -
Cotto clearly lost, and he probably won 2-3 rounds at best, and those were based off of Floyds inactivity on the ropes.Comment

Fact of the matter is that Floyd and Cotto are getting much props for their past fight while others stay on the side lines hating and trying to make up controversy. Floyd despite having a bloody nose and such is really getting praise for standing there with Cotto and ****ing with him making an entertaining fight. Mayweather is a solid technical fighter and Cotto is a warrior for real. Cotto has definitely earned my respect but he did not come close to winning that fight. See, people are forgetting in a boxing match fighters get hit if they are making it a real throw down. Floyd got hit and so did Cotto but fact of the matter is that Floyd beat him fair and square. No one in the sport of boxing is hollering robbery with exception to Bob Arum but at the end of the day he robbed Marquez of the 3rd fight with Pac and told him "It's only business". Give respect and props where it is due.Comment

Cotto won only 2 rounds clearly, but there were at least 3 other rounds that were very close, if you give Cotto all the close rounds its probably 115-113 to Floyd...I had it 116-112. The bad thing is that judges score everything close to the A side, and that tells me there is still big problems with judges. 118-110 is not a good scorecard and we shouldn't ignore it.Comment

Do you know that 117-111 is 9 rounds to 3? That's exactly what 2 of the judges saw... Cotto won the 6 and 8 round. Thats it!! I have been to the Mayweather club and Floyd gets a bloody nose and busted lip in sparring.Originally posted by MeiXiang View PostComment

Youre steaming mad right now aren't you? Everyone saw the fight and knows what happened. I gave Cotto 2 rounds and the judges actually gave him 3. I think Cotto's downfall was he got tired from throwing all those power punches at him against the ropes and them being deflected. His jab was good but it only worked for 2 rounds then his fatigue kicked in. Cotto clearly lost the fight by a far margin but not as far as the judges scored. His corner actually had to motivate him to get out his corner to continue the fight.Originally posted by boxingfan76 View PostComment

You sound ****** and uneducated. Floyd's punches didn't do anything to Cotto? Then why didn't Cotto go straight back to the locker room for medical attention and not stick around for larry Merchant? I don't even think Cotto did the post fight press conference. Most agree that Cotto probably only won about 3 rounds total! Look I know your just one of Pacquiao's fanboys but even Manny Pacquiao wouldn't say some of the ****** nonsense you do.. Cotto did good but he still lost handily...Originally posted by boxingfan76 View PostComment

Cotto did not win any of the earlier rounds. From 1-5 were all Mayweather. Cotto first big round was the 6 round and I think he edged out 7 and 8 was his but the rest was Mayweather.Comment

Im actually giving props to Cotto for finding a way around the philly shell. If its one thing Cotto should use more frequently its his jab.Originally posted by GRUSTLER View PostComment

Floyd has seen it all in the ring. Doesn't matter if you're southpaw or orthodox, Floyd wins.
Floyd would beat Pacquiaos ass. People are forgetting how Pacquiao has looked in his last two fights because Floyd had a bloody nose. Burton busted Floyds nose pretty good too.
Floyd would out box Pacquiao and then demolish him. Marquez showed us that.
People also forget that Pacquiao asked Cotto to drop two lbs too.Comment
