Mayweather vs. Cotto post fight Thread -DON'T make new threads about the fight

[El Angel]

He could hurt Mayweather for sure. But everyone said Ortiz had a good shot at knocking him down early and we know how that fight turned out. Cotto just needs to take what Mayweather gives him and not rush himself. It's a 12 round fight. Use the rounds.

[Larry the boss]

I dont know why people are making a big deal with floyd having longer arms than cotto, when shane has inches on floyd and cotto handled it just fine. Its nothing he hasnt seen or dealt with before.

well floyd is 100 times the fighter shane is thats why

[Buckfever]

I think the thing that I think about is the Cotto that fought Judah and Mosley. Both had clearly faster hand speed and tagged Cotto pretty good but he made adjustments and timed them pretty good. The big thing though is that he would dig vicious combos, he had this confidence that we haven't seen since then. Just a beast back then and that would overcome his technical shortcomings. That's the problem or maybe the intrigue, we haven't seen that version of Cotto since. Could that version show up once again and make it interesting?

Ya i noticed that when a trigger shy mosley put floyd on ***** street.

Tho i agree that floyd is a better fighter than mosley, the arm reach wont be as big of a problem as people make it out to be. Especially if mayweather is gonna be stationary/trying to walk down cotto.

I disagree. Level of opposition has something to do with why we haven't seen him hit clean on a REGULAR basis. Every fighter is hittable. I can promise you that Cotto will hit him enough to win the fight. There is no need to disrepect a great fighter like Cotto. Mayweather isn't a boxing GOD. He's a product of smart match-making in my eyes. They are both great fighters and this will be an intriguing fight.

Freaking Cotto stans.

yes and thats the thing.all the times floyds been buzzed have been with wide looping punches.he doesnt get caught with those short punches.but its boxing anything is possible

its gonna be a good fight floyd should win but cotto will fight

i actually scored that fight for shane but it could have gone either way but Shane had Cotto on his bike so No. Cotto didnt "handle it just fine" u

[KingTito]

Mayweather has definitely lost a step or two. Cotto is certainly capable of hurting him. I still expect Mayweather to win a UD, but I don't think it will be easy for Floyd.

[Rolaz]

I expect Cotto to give his best shot, as he's got a lot of fans to support him during the fight. he showed how he hurt his past opponent including Pacman!

Oh. when you said "adjustments" are you talking abou tthe Low blow frustrated Cotto hit judah with and putting on his track shoes against shane...are these the "adjustments" you are talking about?
