Let the excuses begin

Hmm excuses once again when he perhaps doesn't look as good.

What? Didn't look good? He fought toe to toe at a weight he only fought once...if the dumbasses on here still have to talk shiat after that performance than switch to mma because you're to ****** for the sweet science.

It was a masterful performance against someone bigger, stronger, and he still found a way to win. The fact that he took punches made me respect the kid game more...but i do believe he's slowing down a bit.

lol what next?, he fought with one good eye? he was patially deaf? didnt have enough sleep?, did not wear lucky briefs? lol with the excuses for his poor performance.

He could have said something really ****** like he got a cramp !

he won by landslide and was hurting Cotto bad. what excuses are needed? if he started boxing rather than brawl he would have sparked cotto out

I don't think he's slowing down. The hand injury I can believe somewhat. But what I saw earlier in the week was Floyd being a bit sick (he was blowing his nose and had a bad voice) a few days ago. I was almost expecting the fight to be called off just cause of that. Even Dan Raphael asked if he was under the weather when questioning him days ago.

But I think the biggest mistake Floyd made was hanging around in the ropes for lengthy periods. He really, really, did not need that. But my guess is that Floyd, allowed for it thinking that Cotto would tire badly later on. But Cotto paid an expensive price for the inside work. He took some serious punishment.

Cotto's trainer prepared him well too, much better than expected.

Should have kept that one to yourself Floyd.

How can he weigh 147lbs when he weighed in at 151?

What excuses? PBF doesn't need to make excuses, he won this fight, a fight in which is higher than his normal weight, different gloves, a guy who is not drained like when he fought Pacman ... PBF with the lower weight gave Cotto a fight, man to man and did not run, if he fought his normal fight that bleeding nose would not even been touched ... so all you knockers out there, like him or hate him PBF fought and won, even with everything against him ... u try to fight someone bigger, and with jail lingering in the back of his mind, would u be able to fight? I know I would not be ... like I said like him or hate him, u have to respect his boxing skills ... I know I do, maybe not him as a person BUT his skills are something most ppl will never have

He has a history of hand injuries, im gonna watch it again, but im pretty sure he wasnt throwing many left check hooks. Cotto fought like he hasnt fought since his early 147 days and 140
