Who will be fighting the better version of Cotto?

I think Cotto is at his best right now. Coming off 3 good wins, after avenging one of his only 2 losses, and fighting at a comfortable weight of 154, as opposed to a full 9 pounds lower down at 145. Pac had to weight drain Cotto because he was scared of facing him at full power. Floyd will do no such thing so this will be the better version of Cotto, and possibly the best version we've seen.

 

Mayweather will, like he fought all the better versions of common oppenets because hes the best. Cotto looks great at 154 and has had time since the bricks did him in. this makes pac look like a fool once again

 

Cotto was at 147 when PAC fought him so it was 2lbs don't twist ****. I don't care which version is better it is all just a bull**** bargaining tool in the pac roid v void negotiations. Both should grow a pair and fight

 

Then what? Cotto will get beat up anyway.

 

Pac fought a better version, Cotto has yet to beat the best at 154, beating a one legged "champ" dose not make him #1 at that weight. :rofl



Mayorga was way past his best

 

the more natural weight coupled with the conquering of his margarito demons will produce a better version of cotto for mayweather

 

Before beating a a shell of Margarito he was widely considered past prime on this forum

 

Floyd vs. 154 Cotto in 2012 is better than Pac vs. 145 Cotto in 2009.

Cotto that Floyd will face is further removed from defeat than when he faced Pac.

 

:deal

Let's not forget that in 2012 Pac wanted Cotto to come down in weight while Mayweather steps up in weight like a man.

 

2lbs below welterweight limit, How did Pacquiao win the welterweight title?

 

Anyone that has ever had to cut weight would never say that 2lbs don't matter. Not only does cutting past your comfort zone affect you physically but it throws your whole mindset off.

If draining fighters wasn't a factor team pac wouldn't have said they wouldn't fight cotto if he weighed in at 147.

 

This thread is one of the reasons i stopped coming to ESB boxing forum, damn why does everything has to be a pac vs floyd thing. Every single detail gets scrutinize and compared to either pac or floyd. Front page is filled with threads about floyd or pac and this announcement. There is more to boxing than just floyd and pac.

Cotto vs floyd is a good fight lets face it cotto is not the same since his first margarito fight but he still is a world class boxer. So this is a good test for floyd to show he still is one of the best p4p. Neither pac nor floyd would be facing the best cotto because he hasnt been his best since margacheato ruined him with his plasters. But having said that he's a good boxer puncher that can still give any fighter problems including floyd and a rematch with pac.

:hat

 

Lmaoooo *****s claimed cotto was never the same after the margarito beating. U tell me 2 brutal beatdown later floyd finally wants cotto

 

Floyd tried to fight cotto before he left top rank and arum wouldn't make the fight.
