The goat did what he was supposed to do tonight. I sincerely hope it's his last time at 154 though as he's still a beast at 147. Cotto was game as **** but skills pay the bills. 43-0 but I will have to admit I didn't like how he was hanging out on the ropes so much, even though he was parrying most of the shots. Then again, Miguel has some weight and strength on him. When they were boxing in the middle of the ring, Floyd made it look so easy most of the time.

This fight really made me wonder how this fight would have looked had it happened 5 years ago. I always thought Cotto would give Mayweather the fight of his life, and this fight happened much later than it should have...but Cotto still pretty much did so.

The reason Manny won't beat him is because he can't cut the ring and isn't bigger then Floyd, he won't be able to muscle him like Castillo did in the 2nd half of their fight.

Bottom line, you need a great jab to have a chance of beating Floyd. As of right now, Khan and Martinez are the only ones who have the effective jab to make that happen. I think Bradley would also give Floyd a tough fight as well.

I thought he looked sharp, reflexes still quick and still not getting hit much but he did get hit more than usual but only really by the jab on mutliple occasions.
I did think he looked a little tired near the end though.), I need to watch the fight again by myself. But after the first round, I just knew he was going to get him out of there. He took control from the very beginning.

Just like people that get all hyped up for the Super Bowl or NCAA National Championship game but don't even know whos playing until kickoff. Even I don't like baseball but I watch the LCS and World Series every year. BUT I don't call myself a baseball fan.
