Am I the only one who didn't really enjoy Floyd-Cotto?

You have a valid point,if you was expecting the normal Floyd I can see how you was dissapointed

Me personally I loved the fight very exciting match

 

I suppose I can see why some Mayweather fans wouldn't have enjoyed that. Their man wasn't having his usual success and the fight ended up being a lot closer than what most thought it would be.

But for the neutrals and Cotto fans, it more than lived up to the billing.

 

I agree. The fight was fairly entertaining but if you were like me and you expected Mayweather dominating then you probably would have felt some form of disappointment I suppose. It was his chance to make a statement and I was looking forward to him shining like he did against Mosley and Marquez. Unfortunately Cotto didn’t allow for that to happen. He’s got the right balance of styles to always give Mayweather problems in my opinion. An intelligent boxer puncher with a great jab.

 

The majority of boxing fans scored it a landslide in floyd's favour. 117-111 being to most common score. Fight was not close at allatsch

 

i loved it.

Good to see floyd tested.

It the 1st time in a while we saw him lose rounds quite clearly.

 

I had it 7 rounds to 5 to floyd

But I was watching it with alot of emotion involved as a Cotto fan so would probably do with watching it with a clear head and scoring it properly

 

Every once in awhile thoughout his career floyd has picked a fight where he would stand a trade with a guy. I think when he does it he is out to prove a point. I think in this case he wanted to prove that he could beat a healthy non weight drained cotto at his own game.

On the flipside floyd is 35 and looking right in the face of jail time. Maybe it was a combination of not being what he was and not being focused on the fight.

 

you dont have to get raped dog, theres a old saying you can please them all.maybe next time bud :good

 

Great honest answer. There use to be a lot more of this on the site years back.

Refreshing.

 

You could have asked nicely.

 

Oh **** off, Gunner, you butt-sensitive, Mayweather dick-riding pansy. I ain’t got time for your **** today, because as usual, your reading comprehension is wank (not surprising, really - you are a thick *******, after all).

I said the fight was "closer than what we thought it would be", because many of us were anticipating a Mayweather domination – a comfortable 12-round win or a late stoppage. **** me, you even had Mayweather dropping him three times! But the general consensus, since the fight, has been that Mayweather beat him 9-3/8-4 (a fair few even 7-5); with nearly all of the rounds being hard-fought rounds (none of them saw him outclassing Cotto with ease). It definitely wasn’t a domination by any stretch of the imagination. Mayweather found it a lot more difficult than what he, or any of us, had imagined.

That, my stupid friend, does make the fight "closer than what we thought it would be", no matter how much your sore ass doesn’t want it to be the case.

 

word.. i did the same.. re watched it.. had it 9-3 for Floyd

his shoulder is way too nasty

but Cotto fought a pretty good fight.

however... i agree with you.. it wasn't ALL that entertaining.. i see a pac-may fight being much more entertaining

 

Actually you didn't :rofl
