Anybody think Cotto will win then?

Zab Judah gave Floyd 4 hell rounds, just if Zab was not such a waste of talent, a front runner.

 

That's what I'm hoping for. Pedro Diaz looks like he's getting Cotto in shape for a real hard, physical fight., Anyone know who the referee is? Could have a bearing on the fight!

 

Mayweather will up his game again

 

referee: Tony Weeks. judges: Robert Hoyle, Patricia Morse Jarman and Dave Moretti

 

You've missed the point entirely.

 

mayweather's too hard to hit, unless he's slipped a little i cant see anything other than a wide point win, maybe even a late stoppage.

 

I'm a fan of Cotto and I think he nicks a few rounds, maybe 4 on his way to a points loss.

I think Cotto would have a good chance at hurting Floyd if he showed utter contempt for Floyd's power and steamed in to him from the first bell relentlessly targeting the body.

There is little chance this will happen though and I think Cotto will be patient and work off the jab, stalking Mayweather and falling into enough traps to lose 8 rounds.

If Mayweather has declined or slowed any then it may look similar to Oscar/Floyd, with Cotto getting more success than expected with his jab, but Floyd still takes a decision victory home.

 

UD for Floyd but Cotto I think will do better than a lot think. I hope he does anyway.

 

If Cotto's gonna win 4 rounds it'll need to be the first 4 with how he fades and Floyd's amazing stamina.

 

Wont win a round.

 

Not a god damn chance in hell he beats Mayweather. Doesn't have the footwork, or anything offensively thats a real threat. He's got a good left-hook downstairs but bodywork doesn't overly effect Mayweather due to his defensive technique. You need a very good, long, fast jab to have him off kilter and while Miguel's is serviceable its not good enough.

All you're gonna have is Cotto plodding in, getting nailed with lead rights, hit clean through the middle of his guard where theres a weakness, until he starts to tire and get ragged and loses all poise and gets picked off with increasing regularity. He might start off competitive as Ortiz did but you could see Floyd working him out and the same happens here.

 

Canelo also matches up badly with Floyd, before people start saying he's the 'big test' after this weekend, he's ****in' not.

 

Mayweather could stop him but he usually peaks around the middle rounds and then slows down and coasts to victory and I can see the same happening here. Can see Cotto's big bulbous head getting routinely tagged though and he's not great all under pressure or adversity.

If Mayweather wants to he can stop the fight anytime he wants though. Mayweather will be able to fight in the pocket with this guy and handcuff him up close. Again it all comes down to Mayweather letting Miguel see the final bell. I think he will but then again Cotto's ability to unravel is quite something so Mayweather might not even have to do much to close the show with a TKO.

 

cotto will be the new gatti
