The Cotto who beat Mosley would do what against FMJ?

RingKing · 10-08-2011, 08:43 AM

Probably Cotto's best win against an old, but not yet worn out Mosley. What would his chances be of beating the FMJ who beat Ortiz?

Emeritus · 10-08-2011, 08:45 AM

It would be nice technical fight with Cotto firing his jab and Floyd trying the pull jab over the top!

But I don't think Cotto has enough attributes to stop Floyd running away with a very wide decision.

Popkins · 10-08-2011, 08:47 AM

Not much. IMO, Floyd was always too good a technician for Cotto, he'd find Miguel too easy to hit all night. If Cotto fought aggressively, went to the body a lot, and used his jab he would make it interesting and competitive, but ultimately he'd get outfoxed and outboxed, I'd say 116-112/117-111 type decision.

Since Floyd ducked Cotto, let's resort to FANTASY MATCHUP. Floyd UD Cotto??

Henke67 · 10-08-2011, 08:50 AM

Lose.

It would've been a good fight but Floyd's speed and counter-punching ease him to a win.

I like Cotto but I never thought he was the one to beat Floyd.

not a lot of chance for cotto.. still would have been a great fight and who knows, cotto could have rocked floyd worse than shane did.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

He'd do jack.

compukiller · 10-08-2011, 09:56 AM

He'd get outclassed.

Yeah because Cotto DESPERATELY chased down that fight. He was forced to fight Gomez instead, as he was the only suitable opponent available.

chieftainduke · 10-08-2011, 10:02 AM

Cotto would have no chance. His face would be a pulp more than usual due to solid, accurate shotes. The best version of Cotto against the worst version of PBF would still have no chance.

I1T2BOX · 10-08-2011, 10:06 AM

This again...WTF, everyone knows Floyd dont loose a round of Fantasy fights on ESB!!!!

CYoungblood95 · 10-08-2011, 10:16 AM

The Mosley fight was 7-5 in rounds, with Cotto fading late. Based on that performance, I see Cotto starting strong, losing the middle rounds, and getting dominated late to lose and 8-4 or 9-3 decision. He may get stopped late, depending on which Floyd shows up.

KO-KING · 10-08-2011, 10:16 AM

115-113 Floyd

Mrtibbs · 10-08-2011, 10:46 AM

Please.

Cotto would gas down the stretch and it could even end in a TKO if Floyd went about dealing with Cotto if he went the same way he went about dealing with ortiz.

Call me mad but i can actually see Floyd possibly fighting Cotto at some point. Its a big fight and a low risk fight for Floyd, which we all know he loves!
