    Does Floyd fight this version of Cotto?

    Floyd is my favorite fighter. But I just rewatched a clean copy of this fight, with fresh eyes. So maybe Cotto just had a great night but he looked unreal. Does Floyd actually want this version of Cotto? Cotto can hurt him now. That was crazy.

    I hope so. Cotto taxes that ass in a rematch


    The Roach/MacMillan/Cotto connection is unstoppable. King Cotto is here to stay.

      Re watch the fight. Sergio used no head movement, whatsoever. Floyd can actually bend his knees to duck, weave and pivot. Knees are a beautiful thing.

        I doubt it. This would be a risk to his health.

        The self admitted " rich coward " is commendable because he looks out for his health and the health of other boxers first.

        Rule of thumb, health comes first.

          No way in hell man. I have seen a lot of Cotto fights and I have NEVER seen him look close to being as good as he did last night. He was good at 140 but he was on some other level last night. Dude was faster, sharper and had way better stamina than I have ever seen him display. He would have beaten Floyd no doubt had he looked like that against Floyd when they fought.

              Yeah, Sergio looked really bad, didn't pump his jab, no side to side and he was moving in the wrong direction the entire time.

              But all that aside, Cotto looked like a machine. Sergio hit him with several flush punches and Cotto hardly seemed to notice and his power was that of a smw boxer or something.

                What version? he looked no different at all last night, if anything the way he fought Floyd was the best I had seen him he just wasn't good enough to beat Floyd.

                  It's funny how shit works with Mayweather. His opponents either benefit from a significant increase in their ability after fighting him, or severely decline just before stepping in the ring with him; it is remarkable.

                    I have said right after the fight that Money Mayweather will never fight Cotto again. He knows he will get the PPV numbers he wants, but there's no way he will rematch Cotto even without Roach on his side.
