Mayweathers Power

seems that some are forget Floyd had on 10oz gloves and look at what he was doing to Cotto. He would have stopped Cotto with 8ozs

he could have stopped cotto if he wanted.. could have stopped JMM in the 1st round, watch it again and know floyds skills

coulda shoulda woulda.....floyd looked more beat up than cotto...you think 8 0z gloves would've benefited floyd?...lol, lay down the pipe.

Not as much padding to protect cotto also his hands would been faster in 8oz gloves and I'm sure he woulda hit harder so yes. I bet he woulda been able to slip some of those right hands In with 8oz's rather then 10's

wtf, 2 ounces would've affected floyd's speed?...is he really that weak?...

Floyd hit Cotto with a temple shot in the 4th that made Cotto buckle....it was during one of his 4 punch combos....think it was a left upercut, left hook, then a right hand to end it that hit his temply...cotto did a wobble...good recovery he came in shape

[dibzvincent143]

Mayweather has good power and it strongly relies on the way he times it, the way he throws it, and the way he leaps that straight hand..its just too sharp and clean. If mayweather increases his workrate he'll do great..

[check hook]

Cotto's chin is average, just like Floyd's power as a WW. Floyd had more power at 130. Floyd's power comes from the accuracy and speed. Like when he needles guys to the body with the left jab over and over for a few rds, then turns the punch over into a left hook upstairs. He has enough power to get everyone he's fought to notice it, but he doesn't commit to every shot like many fighters do. Best power punch has always been his left hook.

[KickAzz]

cotto's chin is good, what cotto lacks is stamina and endurance... cotto fades late. floyd knows this. floyd knew cotto would gas and that's when floyd could take advantage.

floyd's power stings, but it ain't KOing nobody unless you're dumb enough to be named Ortiz and let him sucker punch you
