Why was Cotto so much easier for Pacquiao than he was for Mayweather?

cotto was at his natural weight for the mayweather fight not drained to nothing like he was at 145

 

Cotto was still damaged from Margarito
Catchweight
Cotto was less motivated for Pac
Pac is better than FMJ
Pac was on PEDs
Styles makes fights

...just to name a few...:roll:

 

Mayweather knows this that's why he didnt honor the catchweight against JMM.

but but but.. the fight would still have the same result even if Floyd dropped to 144, says the Floyd Mayweather Jr fan

 

interesting question.


before Floyd decided not to honor the catchweight contract, did any Floyd fan pick Floyd to lose against JMM since he was going to be drained 3 lbs.?

 

a) i find it hard to believe cotto wasn't motivated to fight the #1 guy in the world

b) Do you have a positive drug test from pac to confirm this?

i'm a mayweather and pac fan, but he is not on steroids.

the reason why pac has been unstoppable all these years is because he drains his opponents, not because of steroids.

if i take Floyd Mayweather and put him in the desert and get him dehydrated and kick his ass, its not because i'm on steroids, its because i took his body to a point that would not allow him to fight to his max potential, thus making it easy for me to win.

pac does the same ****.

 

were you picking jmm to beat floyd when floyd initially agreed to go down/dehydrate 3 pounds?

 

Pacman has more speed, and throws combinations.

 

It didn't matter because i picked floyd regardless of weight in that fight?

it doesn't even matter who i picked b/c floyd did not honor the weight agreement

i was just using the floyd/desert analogy to show the root of pacs dominanace. even kellerman said it while pac was walking down the ring for the margacheato fight.

 

Logic.

Floyd @144 would still be the great floyd that he is @147. losing weight wouldnt have any effect on him. that's how great he is.

Cotto couldnt function well @145. Im sure if he was 146(his weight against Clottey) or at 147 welterweight limit, he could've KO'd Pacquiao by a jab like most have predicted. LoL

 

you didn't think that the 3 pound loss would make a difference??

 

Pac just has a more devastating style, and Cotto didn't believe the hype and chose to meet it head on. End result---spectacular win for Pac.

i knew it would make a difference, but i just thought floyds talent would carry him through the fight

 

The reason Mayweather dominated Marquez for 12 rounds while Pac struggled all 3 fights.....and questionably lost 2 of them.

 

There is a difference when you can eat before the fight. Cotto could not eat 2 1/2 days before the pac weigh in....
