    The difference was, you mook, that Mayweather started moving around in the 11th and 12th and not staying on the ropes much where Cotto had some success.

    Cotto was spent at that point. You have to acknowledge that.

    Well, Cotto sold himself out to have the success he had. No risk, no reward. NO boxer can do that for rounds on end.

    The mythical statement "if he had more stamina" is just that. Everyone is human, and if Floyd felt that Cotto wasn't ebbing in strength, he would've changed strategies accordingly.

    Cotto fought a better than expected fight, and proved a lot of people wrong. He gave Mayweather his toughest fight in years and props to both men for a brilliant fight.

    Cotto risked it all what are you talking about. Did you see himself killing himself to win that 8th round. Man you're looking like a ridiculous hater.

    Understandable while Floyd ran away from Cotto in 2008.
    Pacquiao's leftovers won no less than 4 rounds Tonight.

    I don't know what the **** you're on about. I said, Cotto put it all on the line and was hoping it would be enough. But unfortunately, Mayweather had more energy on tap.

    Cotto didn't gas, he just got the **** beat out of him. Especially rounds 10-12 mayweather started lighting him up to shreds

    They are real funny, I had cotto winning a maximum of 3 rounds and the ones he did win was because of work rate rather than clean punching. You would think this was an all level fight going into the last round the way they have been talking :lol:
