How I would prepare Cotto to fight Mayweather. (Technical thread)

:tired

 

You are a wannabe yank....

You and afew others have got a issue, because i have challanged their flawed blind logic. On the Chad Dawson vs Bernard Hopkins fight, and now..? The Miguel Cotto vs Floyd Mayweather fight.

 

Unless you can challange what i say in this thread, unless you can challange my logic regarding this fight.?

You need to shut the **** up.

 

I have all the confidence in saying, you fear SJS19 in the physical form.

 

I guess you cannot challange it then.

Some SERIOUS knowledge being dropped in this thread, mate!

This is what I was hoping to find on a boxing forum I joined, people who actually understand, and can convey thoughts on what fighters need to do to be successful. . .

I agree with everything you said here. . . I might have Cotto weigh in at 150-151, which is probably about what he should weigh if just eating "clean" (not even dieting, really), and training his ass off. . .

And I'd definitely train for explosiveness, and reflexes. . . I'd have him using resistance bands AT ALL TIMES - when working the heavy, double-end bags, when working the focus mitts. . . And continuously be yelling to "explode through!" Get used to punching with resistance, your NATURAL punches are going to be that much faster. . . The only upper body "strength" workouts we would do (aside from the resistance bands), is a few sets of "jump-up pushups". . . We'd use light weights, and do "jump squats" - REALLY get those fast-twitch muscles ready in his CORE, and BASE (glutes, legs). . . ANY excess muscle a boxer should have (if any) should be in his core, and base. . .


I can't think of anything to add to your technical breakdown of the actual gameplan. . . You can vocalize your ideas better than me. . . One thing I've always preached is the NEED for the use of "feints" against Floyd, and NOT settling into a pattern. . .

 

I'm going to link this to my breakdown of all of Sat.'s fights. . .

 

:nut so Floyd is for sure going to adjust to Cotto varying his gameplan, but he won't adjust to Cotto just opening up and not carrying what he hits?

 

Awww be nice. It was the best analysis an ITT grad could muster. :yep
