    The thing Bout cottos 5-7 loss to mayweather

    Cotto didnt use his excellent body punching enough

    When he did he landed at will

    If cotto had more stamina he would have beaten floyd

    It was very close though

    I love how well he controlled the ring
    How well he walked floyd down
    His patience
    Excellent jab
    Great combos
    He genuinely hit floyd more than anyone since Castillo, and floyd was still green when he lost to castillo

    It's amazing that years after Pac dominated a bigger Cotto and KOed him.. Floyd would struggle to a close decision and say "hardest fight of my career." To losing against Austin Trout in a good fight, and now if Canelo beats him (who is the naturally bigger man) it's such a big win for Canelo/ Floyd Mayweather's resume.
    Cotto is a good fighter no doubt, whether it's 147 or 154, but many people forget about the Pac demolition.
    BTW: I think Cotto is a guy who is up and down in his career, look at some his losses, his close fights, and how many trainers he has went through. However, I'm still going with him against Canelo. Canelo is a guy with so many tools, but doesn't how to put them all together.

    GGG/Stevens was more watched than Cotto/Trout.

    Cotto does not win this fight regardless of trainer

    How would Floyd avoid a man he's already beaten? Oh my.
