    Mayweather sounds like a fighter on his last miles and Guerrero makes it seem like he mowed down the hole division...

        This fight all boils down to "Does Mayweather still have his legs?" that's pretty much it...the handword isn't going to change all that drastically but them legs..woo..first to go.

          I think he trying to not get hit once in that ring LOL be amazing if he pulls it off but I doubt it.
          If you count being hit by jabs as "being beat up", then yes. Floyd is so good defensively that a bloody nose is considered being "beat up". Cotto's jabs are like right hands. They do damage. Robert doesn't have that snap to his jab. The only way he's going to damage Mayweather is if he uses his thumb like he did against Berto.

            I think the key will not be Floyd's legs but his punch selection. If he tries to pot shot Guerrero, then it will be a long grueling night for him. But if he throws combos and **** the body, he gets the TKO in the late rounds.

              Is it me or reading the name "Mayweather" and the word "mistake" in the same sentence doesn't seem right? As much as I dislike the guy, every time I watch him he seems flawless.

                Biggest thing I saw in the All Access was Floydie making sure there's plenty of footage of his wealth... and gloating on and on about how great he is, talking in 3rd person. Showtime never should have allowed him to be one of the exec producers. It just cheapens the overall effect of the show. I can see why Guerrero wants to cut Floydie down a notch. And it will happen. Floydie will be his usual sharp boxer self in the ring, but he will be getting busted up.

                    I think it's just Floyd acknowledging what a lot of his more demented fanboys couldn't, that Cotto forced him into a fight he didn't want last year, and it wasn't a case of Floyd choosing to get cornered against the ropes so he could entertain people as the fanboys ******edly tried to argue.

                      This is correct. People either don't know or fail to mention that Cotto is actually a southpaw that fights orthodox. So his strongest hand is his lead hand. That's why his jab was so effective
