** Common Opponents Facts ....PBF ...Cotto...**

accidental, Frauds forearms are on purpose.

 

how come cotto didn't go toe to toe with mosley for the lat four rounds. why was he running from an old man:deal

 

What the ****? Floyd Mayweather fights to win. IF he can win toe to toe with es itan opponent, without taking too much damage, he does it !!

 

Cotto is just a bigger puncher than PBF and approaches fights differently

 

Si its wrong for Mayweather to counter all fight but okay for Cotto?

 

For you to say Cotto is "FAR" more verstile than Hatton shows a little bit about your stance on behalf of Cotto. I won't say you don't know boxing b/c you do, but you do have clouded judgement when you have a preferential fighter you are discussing. I'd say Cotto is a better boxer but not by much and I'd say Cotto is LESS of a body puncher than Hatton is.

Cotto isn't as viscious going to the body than Hatton b/c Cotto has other options, but their styles are VERY similar. I will agree that Cotto is bigger...stronger is anther question and still left to be determined. It wasn't like he was having trouble moving and pushing Floyd around...he just was eating alot of leather all the while Hatton was trying to bully Floyd around the ring.

Floyd for the most part "CORNERS himself"! If Floyd doesn't want to be cornered he won't, sometimes he wants to change his game plan up and in order to do that he switches the landscape. He'll be fighting you in the middle of the ring one second and the other sec seems to be trapped in the corner countering off of his opponents offensive arsenal.

 

Please!! Zab hit floyd low to keep himself from getting koed, not because floyd was using elbows.
both fighter like to fight from outside and because this there hardly any clinches if any the whole fight for floyd to resort to using elbows, so let's not rumors of zab cheated becuase floyd used elbows, zab cheated because he about to get stopped.

 

I see your point and I do agree there are slight differences regarding the kind of pressue That Hatton and Cotto implement. Cotto is more composed and calm. He looks for opening and sets them up more...on the other hand Hatton is more of a mauling relentless pressure...he hits your arms, shoulders and anything else that is in the way. I think that Cotto may be a bit more effective agaisnt certain styles where as Hatton may have better success agaisnt boxers or slick fighters. It depends on who they fight and what game plan they have. For Floyd I think Hatton's style would be more effective b/c it dosen't give much room to think or breath...If you give Floyd the chance to pick his spots and think in the ring he will be even more accurate and devastating. Not to say if Hatton and Cotto met that Cotto would have the better style and beat him. But you make some very good observations about the differences in their pressure style of boxing.
