    First of all let me congratulate Floyd on his great performance. If I could describe this performance with 1 word it would be smart, testing his opponent, letting him show what he has got, preserving energy and getting more and more comfortable as the rounds go.

    Now why will Cotto beat him. Unlike Hatton, Cotto is well aclimated to 147 pounds. Unlike Hatton Cotto has an excelent jab which he utilized really well against Judah and Mosley. Cotto is also physically stronger than Hatton and punches harder. Also unlike Hatton who fought strong opponents but not fast opponents (Tszyu, Tackie, Urango ect) Cotto fought speedsters (Malignangi, Judah, Mosley) so Cotto will be used to that speed and will know how to deal with it (Hatton lunging in with that left hook was a big mistake) Cotto is also younger and doesnt baloon in between fights. Cotto also fought better opposition especially recently. Cotto will break Mayweather down and knock him out.

    Mayweather is too fast for Cotto. Besides, Cotto has poor defense.. He will find difficulties catching Maywheather.. PBF's defense is excellent.

    Cotto also has a **** chin compared to Hatton.

    Corley rocked Cotto.

    Mosley and Judah have both speed and power and couldnt hurt Cotto (Judah stunned Cotto but please that fight wasnt even competitive, total distruction, I had to cover my eyes I couldnt look at that beating, Judah was pissing blood afterwards and blood was streaming down his face at the press conference)

    I thought Judah was just as fast as Mayweather and couldnt do ****, I thought Mosley was just as strong and punched just as hard as Mayweather, couldnt do ****. Cottos chin at 147 is much better.

    Cotto is the only one with a chance to beat Floyd. His timing is so good, he is effective at negating speedy fighters. I want that fight. I wanted that fight more than Hatton. I knew Hatton would get his head handed to him, hes too technically shitty.

    Floyd won't lose to Cotto because he will never fight him. Same with Mosley.

    blah blah. Look I'm not a Mayweather fan at all, but Cotto in my opinion would get embarrassed. He's too slow for Floyd. If Hatton can't even a land a punch on Mayweather, no one's beating him. Sorry but it's the truth.

    Cotto is improving with every fight and we all know what Mayweather can do. It will be another great fight. Hopefully they make it happen next. I have said before that Floyd has the talent to clean up the division and I hope he keeps fighting the best.
