    Is it me or does anyone else agree that Mayweather is scurrred of Cotto?
    Mayweather is young and truthfully still in his prime. Why would he choose to retire? for some years!?!?
    Thoughts on Pacquiao moving up to fight Mayweather. Would it ever happen? could he win? I personally think Pac would get the Win.

    Well Floyd says he is bored with boxing, thts a good reason. I think the real reason is more likely just that he wants to do other things. He's been spending every day in the gym for over 10 years, and has also been living with a lot of pain with his constant hand injuries for over 10 years. After 10 years of all that wouldn't you want a break?

    Also, Pacquiao stands no chance against Mayweather or any of the top 147 lb fighters, no chance.

    You've got to look at more than just the score cards. Watch both fights. Floyd was about to knock out Zab. When Zab fought Cotto, though Cotto won the rounds, Zab still hurt Cotto a couple of times, and fought convincingly. When he fought Mayweather, he won a couple of early rounds on aggression, but only landed a few clean punches and never hurt Mayweather.

    The point your missing is Cotto had blood all over him.. Floyd was relatively untouched.. Cotto is going to have a hell of a harder time trying to hit Mayweather half as much as he did Judah.. FACT.. and while doing so he's going to have alot more shots landing on him.. as Judah is quicker and was still scared to throw in fear of getting pumbled in the last 7 rounds v PBF.. this is my point.. its got NOTHING to do with who got the KO or the impressive win.. its to do with fighting style..

    Judah owned PBF in the early rounds. Cotto dominated Zab from the bell. That said, PBF would most likely win a UD here. But, then again, I expected SSM to beat Cotto.

    Only because Judah realised he was getting hit everytime he tried to do something after round 5.. He stopped throwing in fear of being hit.. His dad's even in the corner saying ''you've got to ****in throw Zab'' and he still wouldn't do it.. Where as with Cotto he still had the confidence to fight because he knew he could hit Cotto..

    Put simply.. After watching both fights.. Cotto won't have the luxury of hitting Floyd like he did Judah.. and when he does come forward I would expect Mayweather to come back with alot more than Judah did.. Which can't be good news.. you see where i'm coming from?

    zab owned floyd!?!? palease!!he did well but hardly anything I'd call dominating.
    cotto was almost koed and needed that low blow to bail himself out bad situation..

    Wow get real people. How many times do we have to say it? If you're comparing PERFORMANCE in a fight, scorecards dont matter. Zab won some rounds when he fought Floyd, though neither fighter landed hardly any punches. Zab didnt win rounds against Cotto, though he hit him cleanly and even hurt him a couple of times with counter left uppercuts.

    Damn those uppercuts were beautiful.

    zab won 2 rounds 2 and 4 that's it. if you're a floyd hater you can give him the 12th and the first, but those are compassion rounds:deal compassion rounds occur when you hate one fighter and wish for the other fighter to knock him out.

    zab was so scared to fight back after the fifth he had to foul floyd to keep from getting knocked out. cotto was getting beat around the ring by zab and fouled him to keep himself in the fight:deal

    cotto is not on floyd's level and right now floyd should not fight him. cotto must prove himself.:admin

    GOOD ASSESMENT. NOW DON'T FORGET, JUDAH IS A SOUTHPAW. HE ALSO HITS ALOT HARDER THAN FLOYD AND IS A SLIGHT BIT FASTER. JUDAH DID AWESOME IN THE BEGINNING OF THE FLOYD FIGHT. COTTO HAS A GOOD STIFF JAB THAT HE SHOWED AGAINST MOSELY. I THINK THATS A BIG FACTOR INTO A FIGHT WITH FLOYD. GATTI LANDED A BUNCH OF JABS AT FIRST AGAINST FLOYD AND THEY WERE DEAD AND SLOW. HE ALSO MADE FLOYD MISS ALOT TOO. AT FIRST! FLOYD HAS EXPERIENCE AND SPEED SO....I THINK THE FIGHT NEEDS TO BE MADE. I CAN'T SEE THE PUERTO RICANS AS LOUD AS THE BRITS!

    WHO DOES COTTO HAVE TO BEAT, KLITSCHKO TO GET A LEGIT SHOT? MOSELY WASN'T ENOUGH.

    Right, But If Zab Had Half A Heart And A Steady Chin And Faith In It It Would Have Been Different. But He Doesn't So....its History. Floyd Is Top In A Kind Of Weak Period At This Weight Class. He Has To Fight Cotto Because History Will Not Be Nice To Him.
