2008 Cotto vs. Mayweather

[PunchMeIDareYou]

I remember HBO at the time hyping this fight up big time. The Cotto who beat down Gomez (pre Margarito) vs. Money May...who would have taken it back then?

[MPDKSAB]

The same person who took it when they fought lol.

Does it matter?

Because in all these hypothetical matchups it always comes down to the following.

Mayweather chose not to take a tough fight that people saw as 50/50 and instead chose to avoid that fighter until he had seen enough decline.

So these "hypothetical " match ups never could happen even in fantasy

nobody saw this fight as 50/50 lol. mayweather would've beaten him easier. cotto ducked mayweather and said puerto rico was too far LMAO

if a past prime cotto and already destroyed by pac and margarito gave floyd a very tough fight then a 2008 would have easily beat floyd.

Cotto did not give Floyd a very tough fight.

There's not a single person who thought the fight was in doubt, even Puerto Ricans.

Floyd washed him and would've washed him in any era.

Floyd won 8/4 and had trouble early. I seem to remember Cotto bloodying him up.
Mayweather eventually took it too him and took over the fight but Cotto was competitive.
Sickens me when people make it out like Mayweather “washed him” just like when they suggest he “washed” Pacquiao

How am I suppose to talk boxing when that beautiful woman is flirting with ME? U guys see it right?

Floyd beats him.....Roger made that fight a lot harder than it had to be.
