Floyd Mayweather vs Miguel Cotto Final Round "This kids gift is his conditioning"

See? Clear like plastic...

 

:roflatsch

nothing to with floyd being more skilled? ahh okay!!!!!

 

no I'm talking about my scorecard, not your 7-5 and give Cotto the second round scorecard

 

Your post is so far offatsch ....Floyd won the fight man...deal with it...he won it in the eyes of the judges and the eyes of the fans and the eyes of the media (all consensuly speaking).

Pacquiao, however, lost the fight to Marquez (3) in the eyes of the fans and media (consensusly speaking)...yet you try and justify that Floyd almost lost to Cotto...you show your just a hater right there...You troll this site like it's your life.:rofl

 

I had it 5-3 Floyd after 8. So it really isn't a stretch to say if Cotto could've kept that pace in the 8th round (translation: if he had more stamina) through at least the next couple of rounds....it would've been more interesting in the scorecards. You guys are too damned defensive. Thru 8 Cotto proved to be in the same class as Floyd. Thru 12 Floyd clearly was superior. That said, there's weight to the saying that if Cotto had more stamina he could've won.

 

There's weight to the saying that if Marquez pressed the attack and had more stamina down the stretch he would've beat Pacquiao more convincingly.

Clear like glass....

You do realize that your job has been to hate and criticize Mayweather since you've gotten here. Anyone taking your "opinion" of the subject of this fight as anything but the ramblings of a biased twat should be sitting on the short bus next to you everyday.

 

what rounds did you give Cotto? 8, 6 and 3?

and how did Cotto prove to be in the same class as the smaller Floyd through 8 rounds by only winning 2?

 

Who has Mayweather fought at/above 147 that had decent stamina? Majority of his wins post 140 have an excuse of "if opponent A had more stamina"...

Judah lost because he gassed.
Oscar lost because he gassed.
Mosley lost because he gassed.
Cotto lost because he gassed.

Really?

 

pretty much

 

Floyd never dominated Cotto in the fight, except for part of the 12th round. Even the OP, aka Floyd nuthugger, makes the point that FLoyd's conditioning was a big factor in the fight.

You need to stop feelin so butthurt. Cotto was right there with Floyd in every round, even the ones he lost. He was never outclassed. He could have very well won the fight if he was properly conditioned. Nobody's saying he would have won, but the opportunity was there.

 

8, 6 and one of the earlier rounds can't remember which. I think at most people only gave Cotto 3 rounds, and that was within the first 8. I think most agree Floyd swept the next 4. Now even if you only gave Cotto 2 within the first 8, everyone can agree that Cotto was in it in all those rounds and was pressing the action effectively. In other words, Floyd wasn't "schooling" Cotto, and a couple of landed punches here and there for Cotto would've won him an extra round or 2. Given this scenario, you can't say that Cotto was being outclassed....you have to be a really biased ***** to say that. Put in another way, the way Cotto was fighting in those rounds...he could've lost all the rounds thru 8 and one can still say he wasn't outclassed coz he could've just as easily won 3 or 4.

Now after the 8th (which is about usually the time Cotto gases), and knowing Cotto's history of gassing....it wasn't inexplicable to see his activity drop. Casual fans might ask, what the hell is he doing dancing after that great 8th round. But having followed Cotto for years now, I knew that was it, he blew his load...checkmate, Floyd was gonna win the next 4. So again, it's not a stretch to say that if Cotto had more stamina( ya know like a certain lil asian midget) he could've put a better account of himself. Don't take it like I'm taking something away from Floyd decisive victory. At the end of the day conditioning IS part of the game. Do take it however as a hypothetical.

 

Watching that youtube clip of the full fight. Mayweather's arsenal of punches is a thing of beauty. I think the fact that he has long arms make them look nicer as well.

Im mean in the 7th rd he hit Cotto with a short left hook to the head, short left uppecut to the body, short left uppercut to the head, followed by a looping right hand all smooth and placed nicely. Some of the punches he set Cotto up with were pure beauty.

Credit to Cotto's defense though he blocked a lot of shots that if landed could have turned the fight into May-Gatti 2.

 

So, should fights be ruled a NC if people on ESB blame stamina for the reasons?

Maybe Cotto was dominated so thoroughly in rounds 9-12 because he put up such a fight in rounds 3-8. Just, maybe?

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl

Cotto was in great shape, him slowing down had to do with mayweather's body punching and giving right hook after right hook into his head.:good

 

Butthurt about a victory?
i think we know who is clearly butthurt here gander... :rofl

oh so you saying his conditioning lost him the fight is not saying he would have won, HAHHAHAA come on man
