    If Cotto continues to improve, in 6-8 months he
    will be a "tank".

    Mosley briefly hurt Cotto in the 9th with a
    a body shot.

    Can PBF hurt Cotto, or will Cotto just walk
    right thru and over Floyd???

    Cotto won't just walk through his punches, but Mayweather does NOT possess the power to hurt him with any one punch either.

    Floyd is one of the best body punchers in the game, can he hurt Cotto going to the body? Of course, any well placed body shot is gonna hurt a fighter, Cotto could hurt Floyd going to the body as well and Mayweather is in the gym every day. The body is not like the chin, one great body shot can KD a fighter, even KO a fighter if they are a great body puncher.

    I imagine Cotto has heard almost anything PBF can come up with
    on the streets in Puerto Rico already.

    Any other time I would say no but SSM hurt him to the body, Corley rocked Cotto and he really didnt take Paulie M's shots good either. So with that said YES pbf can hurt Cotto

    very true, anyone can get hit in the sweet spot around the body and feel it, its how well they can hide it so their opposition dont capatalise on seing them hurt.

    Of course Mayweather can hurt Cotto. He can't one-punch Miguell, but PBF is REALLY fast, so he could put together an accumulation of punches that might cause problems. However, judging from some of the fights I've seen Cotto in, I think you have to do more then hurt him in order to beat him.

    Cotto has been hurt by lesser fighters and Mayweather has hurt greater fighters.

    With that being said, Cotto wouldnt be hurt enough to go down, however.
