    Cotto faded Canelo didn't and Canelo is notorious for fading, look at at Cotto and 154 he was as strong as a bull and doesn't slow down.

    There is no doubt both were weight effected to suggest one is worse than the other is fanboy stuff.

    The thing is Manny has the world record for draining fighters and manipulating weight he would force guys one way or the other depending on if they thought they could get an advantage.

    The most blatant scenario of weight posturing was Manny vs Cotto for Cottos WW title at 145, Cotto didn't even want to put his title on the line but Arum being the same promoter pressured Cotto on the weight and putting his title up. He threw Cotto under the bus and Cotto quickly left when he legally could.

    Manny calls Cotto out when Cotto held the 154 belt, Cotto says no problems but no CW, Manny takes off like a Jack Rabbit and Floyd steps in.

    Now if Manny really beat Cotto the man and not a weight drained Cotto he would not have ran away after he called him out the second time, it was weight that beat Cotto and that's why Manny flat refuses to fight Cotto without a CW, if he had Cottos number he should be able to beat him at any weight, he didn't want to even try after he was the one that called him out.

      He didn't gass-out like he did against Chavez Jr.
      Nelo was just having fun getting in some nice work for a 1mil PPV and to pay back All-Star. I mean, I dont think Nelo put in any work for that fight considering Jr... what boxing star doesnt sit on his stool acting like Foreman nowadays?

        And if Floyd wanted to beat Cotto, the man, he would have fought him five years earlier before he git beat the fk up by Manny and Margarito..

                It was not presented at the time, Floyd fought him when he was mentally and weighted to win, Manny fought him drained and mentally wrecked, Cotto got better as he got older after he beat Margarito because it removed a monkey of his back and he was rejuvenated, when Manny beat him Roach said he was damaged goods because it was so close to the Margo cheat beating, later Roach said Cotto was better than ever at the higher weight.

                Manny beat Cotto because of weight that's a fact and the evidence proves its he flat refuses to fight Cotto without a CW that says everything.

                  Obviously nelo was worse. He was green as well which makes it even worse win for Floyd. At least Miguel was established and proven

                    All i know Floyd went 3 and 0 against them with Cotto giving the hardest fight and Pac was the easier of the three.
