    cotto is on his prime years and is younger than floyd but he has taken a lot more punishment than floyd... but this word shot that people love to use is stupid... he speaks clearly, has no physical problems, the only thing maybe is that he cant take a punch like he used to which still doesnt make him shot only makes him not at his best... but there shouldnt be any excuse if he losses to floyd

    :hat

    I am not "answering your question" because it has nothing to do with what "I'm saying."

    Then you'll just rebuttal with some stupid ****.

    Yea you and your children and your mama like 0-1010-0 with me.

    ***gots like this guy **** up this forum. It's funny how Klitschko fans don't like you either. Joe C. fans, Hopkins fans...you gets no respect on this forum.

    Real posters watch the sport of boxing; they don't just watch Pacquiao and what goes on around him...lil *****.:hi:

    Talk to me when you watch the sport...not just your boyfriend Manny Pacquiao.

    So easy to pick on this ******:deal:hat

    He doesn't watch anything not related to Pacquiao:good

    We both know damn well he is not going to watch Marquez. He cries his eyes out everytime he see's Marquez because he knows Marquez really beat Pacquiao's ass in that last fight.

    3 fights with Marquez and Pacquiao still can't beat him convincingly. 1 draw, a 1 point victory (def not convincing to most fans), and a horrible robbery...none are convincing.

    Yeah...Margarito, Pacquiao, Cotto, Williams - they all ducked Floyd.

    Only ther great ones like the Judahs and the Baldomirs would step up and fight our Mighty Champion!

    Personally i think hes damaged but not shot.
    His speed, boxing skill, determination are all there including the drive to improve.

    Problem is he just does not react well to punishment anymore, where before he would kick it up a gear now he goes into survival mode.
    Its a mental thing not a inability thing.

    The Cotto that would pick himself up from the canvas to go to hell and back to win is gone.

    Margarito..LMFAO, Tony is a joke and always has been. Arum tried to use Tony to keep Floyd with Top Rank...yea shows what you know.

    Pac makes every excuse not to fight Mayweather.

    Williams was never in a place to fight Floyd. He was fighting on Floyd's undercard in 2006 and wasn't anyone of importance until he beat a plastered margarito.

    Cotto, you can make a case but the same goes for Cotto in ducking Floyd.

    After some thought im curious to see Cotto in this fight

    He beat the guy that took his 0 and his feeling of invincibility

    mentally it was obvious just what that fight took out of him

    but he avenged it and now has a trainer who he can trust and meshes well

    so now he has some confidence back and also knows the feeling of defeat and being humbled

    but i will say i think Cotto still mentally has problems and i really think Mayweather by round 5 or 6 will be in firm control

    Every fight since the first Margarito fight, you can tell when he starts to take a ceirtan amount of punishment the seak and destroy version of Cotto is gone.
    That vicious body puncher goes into backpedal boxing mode.

    Why do you think this? I mean, what has Cotto done to make you think he has real mental problems?

    ring behavior facial expressions when put under certain levels of pressure

    he appears to doubt himself at times

    i will say however since beating Margarito he may have regained some of the fire that i think he lost
