Which was a better performance, May/Cotto or Pac/Bradley?

[Me La Pelan]

I thought their performances were very similar. Both looked vulnerable, but both showed they were clearly a level above their opponents.

I agree, that said.. In your opinion who was a harder opponent? Cotto or Bradley

[Kagami Taiga]

ill just say this, mayweather fought a complete fight, pac really didnt at all.

Before, I would have said Bradley was a much better style challenge. After the fights though, I think both fought exactly how they needed to. Really, I believe Pac and Floyd looked very similar. I can't argue much with saying either looked better.

mayweather cotto went back and forth alot .

Manny just flat out put a beatdown on bradley ,diaz was even asking bradley if he wanted fight stopped .
Then again this place is full of illiterate groupies that will say mayweather was more dominating .

Im a mexican american boxing fan .


I love the sport i dont jockride one fighter or another
So i speak n0thing but truth son always have always will

I genuinely believe if Cotto had got the decision against Floyd there wouldnt be as much outrage. Many rounds were competitive and close, and the feeling would be, you maybe were a little hard done floyd thats how it goes sometimes.

May fought like a man, and put it on a beautiful performance, for 12 rounds, in a great fight.


Pac took rounds off, and even in the ones he won, only fought for a minute, and looked sloppy. And the fight got boring.

Bradley looked lost whereas Cotto put up a challenge. Pac worked Bradley better than May did Cotto, but Bradley is no Cotto, so May and Pac did equally well.

I personally think, given their opponents, pacquiao impressed more, due to not expecting such dominance. In terms of flat out boxing skills, mayweather impressed more in that department.

Both looked like they were in decline....

Mayweather wasn't as mobile but to take in consideration his adjustments in fight are just astonishing. His accuracy was down when he was smothered and if he takes a cotto rematch. It may end in a draw or possibly a SD loss. Cotto showed heart and championship material grit.

Pac showed he was outclassing a prime, younger lion with all that talk Bradley had. He showed he still has the power with a class above even good fighters or however you rank Bradley. The major question is his killer instinct we now know is LONG GONE. He lost on the cards and we all need to move the **** on. He won in the hearts and eyes of many. If boxing can move towards better judging, great! If not then we can suspect we will have plenty more bad decisions in the future. When we cry about fighters risking their lives, imagine what it does to them when they have worked their whole lives to get to a certain point and get blatantly robbed.

They really were pretty similar.
