Like I said Cotto is a warrior but he won 2 rounds. 3 at best.
This was the fight I wanted to see mayweather in. He had to earn the win. Loved the combinations he put together too.

In boxing, I've never seen a camp complain about how many points they lost by. Who gives a shìt if the score was 118 to 110 or 115 to 113 your guy clearly lost the ****ing fight. They are upset because they thought they had the perfect game plan but it didn't work. So now they want to b!tch about how big of a margin they lost by. Pathetic to say the least.Last edited by iniduoh; 05-07-2012, 03:59 PM.

Another factor could be floyd's more than lackluster choices since comeback.

Ok...........
"Cotto only landed 105 punches on Floyd but landed 173 on Manny. So NOT Manny does not beat Floyd".................So, you are under-minding how many punches Cotto landed but what about how many Floyd missed? I mean, this was the greatest fighter who ever laced up gloves, fighting a fighter who was considered damaged goods and on top of that, it was the defensive genius who was bleeding by mid-fight. My point has been proven. Floyd is over-rated man. He's only as good as who he "picks" to fight. Manny would be a nightmare match-up for him. PERIOD. Otherwise, he would have fought him already. He knows what's up.

I think you are comparing with another P4P's resume and if so I think it holds up well. I won't jump to that conclusion though.
Back to Cotto though. This Cotto came in with a plan, executed as best he was able to, trained hard and didn't have to weight drain. I give this Cotto the edge against Alvarez.

He (Floyd) didn't give the fans a "toe to toe" battle it was Cotto pressuring the fight 90 percent of the fight. And Cotto backed off anytime Mayweather started to use the "Elbow".
exactly. mayweather imagined he went toe to toe. but
he cant. the mosley fight proved that mayweather
is better off boxing

Great point.... A weight drained Cotto had Pacquioa looking like a mummy the way he was wrapped up from that busted ear drum... And to piggy back, a weight drained Cotto landed darn near 80 punches more on Pac than he landed on Floyd.... And lastly, Pac and Arum wanted Cotto on Jun 9 th as their first choice but backed out because Cotto's unwillingness to "sacrifice his life" to make 147 again and Pacquioa lack of bravery to fight em at his natural weigjt.... BTW... These are all facts
