Cotto's power?

many fighters said cotto was the hardest puncher

mayweather

pacquaio

pauli

many steward also said he was the hardest hitting welter he trained

cotto can crack big time

 

His power seems inconsistent. Margarito said he hits like a girl, and Mayweather said he was one of the hardest punchers he's faced.

I think him being with Roach has maximized his power and brought him back to the power punching force he once was.

 

Don't put words in Manny's mouth. Manny trained Hearns.

Cotton has good not great power. He's no Tito

 

margo is nuts and has a great chin the only guys who hurt him in his career was pac and mosley

 

Margarito is just a tough guy that won't admit anyone can hurt him. Plus I think he hates Cotto so I wouldn't take that account too seriously.

 

Pac never really hurt him that bad. Just broke up his face

 

This. Margarito WALK though Cotton, but was KO'ed by Mosley.

 

JIM " WHAT A JAB WHAT JAB THATS THE HARDEST JAB I EVER SEEN"(jim thought it was a jab)

MAX " MARGO IS READY TO GO"

MANNY STEWARD " IT WAS A RIGHT HOOK"

pac hit him with one right hook and made margo stumble like hell

 

mosley hit margo with a million clean big shots for 9 rounds

 

it looks like everything he throws is hard enough even his jab

 

I remember watching that and was thinking how can a human take those many clean shots from a roided shane:nut

dude has one freaky jaw

 

There are different types of power.

There's thudding power (heavy shots) and there are snapping power (quick and snappy).

Some people are prone more to other shots, but I think Margarito is the type that can handle thudding power because he just has dense bones and a hard chin. But an accumulation of quick snapping shots will accumulate and hurt fighters like Margarito.

That's why PAC and Mosley were able to hurt him, when Cotto couldn't even when he landed most of his punches as well.
