Prime Mayweather vs. Prime Cotto: who wins?

[UTEP]

There's a reason why Cotto lived "too far away" for Floyd when they were both at welterweight.


Prime vs Prime, Cotto beats him 8 rounds to 4.


Floyd "retired" in 2007 and 2008 to avoid the top welterweights.

Prime for prime

Cotto live to far follow by one more fight then I'm done.

[El Angel]

Very lame excuse, yes. But Cotto, did he or did he not avoid the Floyd fight at 140? yes or no

So Cotto's prime was 140 now?

What did Cotto do any diff in 07 or 08 that would have made a difference he wasn't better than Floyd then and he's not better now

[Jack Napier]

Floyd woulda stopped Cotto at JWW if Cotto had the balls to fight
Floyd woulda stopped Cotto at WW if Floyd had the balls to fight
was very surprised Floyd didn't stop Cotto at JMW
prime for prime Cotto gets beat much worse than he did last yr

[Frank Ducketts]

If I were a Cotto fan or a sick twisted psychotic bandwagon Matthysse fan, I'd say that Cotto beats Floyd.

[El Angel]

If I were a Flomo or sick twisted power punching fighter hater (except Curtis Stevens), then I would say Floyd wins.

Saying Ray Leonard or Ray Robinson beats Floyd has alot or merit but saying Cotto or Margarito or Paul Williams beats him are more pipe dreams

[freethinkersam]

Cotto at 147lbs was a BEAST

It would be a close fight but Cotto would edge it

IF Canelo comes in right he can make it a close fight. Mayweather is not unbeatable.

Saying Ray Leonard or Ray Robinson beats Floyd has alot or merit but saying Cotto or Margarito or Paul Williams beats him are more pipe dreams

PIPE DREAMS because Mayweather didn't want to fight them

He fought Judah and Baldomir instead and then retired
