    Cotto should've been knocked out by Pac earlier but he was .....

      No not at all, Cotto doesnt have the speed or defense to nullify Mayweathers attack. Cotto is easy to hit. I mean Clottey was ****ing it out with Cotto right in front of him the entire fight....why would it be bad for Mayweather? Cotto isn't the fastest or strongest fighter than Mayweather has ever faced. Also Mayweather has a height and reach advantage & isn't a stationary target.

      I could be wrong...

        JMM is a tough SOB...but still lost each time....You see Manny is so great that when someone does as well as JMM with Manny it appears he lost or didnt look as good.
        With Floyd JMM moved up to a heavy weight and was waaaay over his natural weight and never fought there before. Also he needed a pay day. Also Floyd didnt make weight at weigh in and weighed by fight night on unofficial scale nearly 36lbs heavier. So as much weight and size advantage Floyd had on little JMM he couldnt even lay him out.... Manny did and out him on the canvas several times...at his weight. If you think the win over JMM with Floyd was a remarkable win for Floyd you are out your rocker!

The reason is he was getting he azz handed to him. At that point he never knew Margarito was cheating so that wasn't even a factor in his decision to quit.

          It doesnt matter what Kenny did or didn't do, the fact is he has 2 KO losses on his record no matter how YOU try to spin it.

          I agree with what you said about Cotto being resilient and all that but who has Cotto fought since Pacquiao that would lead you to believe he won't use his "shut down and quit" mechanism again?
          At the time, no he didnt know. All he knew was he had nothing left to give, and got beat down. In hindsight, that beatdown was illigetimate.

          Sure, he has two ko losses (one being legitimate), but he's never been ko'd. The ref/corner has stopped his fight, but he has never been ktfo.

          Ultimately, my point is there is a huge difference between the volume punching of marg/pac, and floyds selective punches. Cotto is no stranger to being hit hard with clean punches, he fights back. Its the volume that puts him in trouble, and i dont believe it is in mayweathers best interest to try and do something he doesnt do (volume). Everybodys open and can be hit when they are throwing, including mayweather.

          Sure. Is there a difference between volume punching and selective punching? Cotto has a career of taking hard punches, its the volume that can put him in trouble (if he's not prepared for it).

            Not me.... This way Cotto will stand a chance to land the big one....Then again ...Manny ****** it out with Cotto and it didnt work to well with him...
            Floyd may see this and know it will be in his best interest to **** it out rather than sit and wait on counters.

              No. Cotto doesn't have a right hand, the punch that has hit Floyd in the past. His combinations are also slow and basic, so Mayweather would be able to see em all coming.

                Because guy said he didn't want the lesser money last month after stating that he'd take the lesser money to make the fight happen [against Mayweather] back in December. Go figure.

                  Also the stadium isn't done being constructed.

                    WHat on earth are you talking about? did you know JMM was 135lbs? Do you know he weighed in at 142lbs? Do you know that 135+7=142? JMM only had to gain 7lbs

                    Yes I agree Floyd didn't make the agreed weight but JMM had the option to either accept the fight or not and he chose to fight. That fight was NOT a title fight. Also do you truly believe that the 2lb weigh-in difference was the outcome of the fight? Did at any point of that fight did Mayweather utilize his size disparity in the match?

                    I understand that Manny knocked JMM 4 times @130 lbs, that fight was a draw and he struggled.

                    Pac fought JMM 2 years after Mayweather and struggled. Can you explain why Pac had major issues with a 38 year old JMM 2 years after Mayweather beat him 12-0?

                      Land a big one? When has Cotto ever been a 1 punch KO artist?
