How much better would Mayweather-Cotto had been at WW (2008)?

... who was ALSO drained when he fought Manny! Floyd went up to SWW, probably not as strong at the weight, with bigger gloves. Think a little more about it please.

 

There's a reason why they use 10z gloves @154 and above.. Its because the bigger you are, the harder you punch..

Floyd stopped Ricky out in 10 rounds with 8oz gloves @147..

Manny knocked him out it in two @140.. :deal

Floyd can't knock down Mosley @ 147..

Manny knocked him down and made him run away @147.. :deal

Think harder dude.. :smoke

 

atsch Still don't get the point.

That **** don't work.

Floyd knocked marquez down at WW, but Pac couldn't knock marquez down at WW

Yet pac could knock down mosley and Cotto?

Mosley could knock down margo, but pac couldn't?

 

My point to your original comment was that Oscar was comparing two different fighters at two different weights - one of which he was weak and dehydrated and the other he wasn't.

 

Because Marquez had the benefits of scouting Pacquioa's weakness during his fight against Mosley.. :deal Once Pacquioa makes one step forward, they'll make two steps backward.. :deal

Pacquioa was pulling his punches on Margarito because boxing is not killing for him.. :deal

If Pacquioa vs Marquez III took place around the span during Pacquioa vs Oscar to Pacquioa vs Margarito.. Marquez would have been stopped.. :smoke

 

... Wow..!

 

You have to be kidding if you think Floyd has declined more in the last four years than Cotto.

 

Why?

 

Didn't Oscar said that he was comfortable on that weight? :think

Look, we are talking about 2 f*cking ounces of difference here.. Its only 56.70 grams, 0.123459 lbs! :deal Its just like a size of one large egg..

 

Floyd's hand speed is noticeably slower. His movement, whether he's choosing to plant and fight more for the fans or not, is less. Besides the cuts and bruises on his face, where has Miguel declined?

 

Really?

Floyds barely fighting once a year since 2008 and bar a brief moment in the second round against Mosley and that bit of trouble Cotto gave gave him he has taken very little punishment.

Compare Cotto who took heavy beatings against Pac and Margo and has been a lot more active than Floyd in the last four years.

 

Oh, my God... didn't you say early in this thread that there's a reason for different size gloves?! atsch

 

And to add more, Manny has declined a lot..

Manny against Oscar, Ricky, Miguel, Clottey, Tony fight > Manny against Shane > Manny against Juan and Timmy..

The first Manny there would have stopped the two other Manny.. :deal :smoke

 

... Yes, you did! atsch
