    I think Cotto's speed makes him land punches and he looks strong, but he is not that strong physically. I think Mayweather is physically stronger.

    Floyd didn't out muscle Hatton??? lol. You must ba a fat drunken slob. You are a known hater so who cares what you think anyway. Floyd will beat Cotto's ass and I know you wouldn't place one cent on Cotto to win:rofl

    You need to watch the fight again. Hatton was pushing him to the ropes all night. I think you are confusing the terms or maybe just a dense individual by nature. We're clearly not discussing who is the better boxer or has the better punch or chin or even who the better inside fighter is. The poll just asks who is physically stronger. Not even Floyd's biggest sackswingers could honestly vote for Floyd in this one.

    Cotto's opponents seem to have been impressed by his strength.

    Floyd is taller and has longer arms, Cotto would actually look like the smaller guy if they stood next to each other much like Hatton did

    They are actually about the same other than that when it comes to proportion

    Just like you every one is assuming the punching power translate into strength , and reading some of the post some even believe cotto is the bigger fighter when actually he is the smaller fighter.

    Again punching power does not translate into physical strength moron.

    I can't believe you thought , I would run from a dufas like you :lol:

    Cotto has never came into the ring at 160 , and his feat of strength were at 140 not at 147 I doubt he would be body slamming anyone at 147,,, shane has already proved that Cotto strength is nothing special at 147.. again cotto punching power at 140 has over hyped his unproven strength at 147. Even Zab was able to hold his ground with this so called strength .. do I think Cotto is stronger then floyd .. absolutely not .

    If it were the case Arum would have let cotto fight floyd at 140 if his strength is such a factor.
