    I dont think the Cotto-Malignaggi fight is a good blue print for Cotto-Mayweather, and basically is because of the way they think and there physical attributes. PBF has more power than PM, he seems physically stronger and he is quicker with his feet. Floyd is also a whole lot more expirienced which helps the fact that he is smarter and his defensive style is just superior PM's. Cotto is a great fighter and the one PBF should fight next in my opinion, but comparing the paulie fight wont do any good basically because Floyd has ring intelligence second to none in todays game and he is a defensive master counter puncher, which Paulie is not. Having said all of this im not saying Cotto loses to Mayweather, but i think ive said enough

    I have to disagree. Judah at times was faster then Mayweather and Paulie is nowhere near Mayweather in terms of speed.

    Judah was able to land often early against Cotto. Mayweather doesn't fade like Judah and would keep his speed. And continue to tag Cotto with the straight right hand leads and quick left hooks.


    Paulie is faster then Judah later in fights (because of Judahs inability to pace himself properly).

    Do you ever EVER read my post? Ive said Judah was tagging Cotto early and often and he was. FACT.

    Judah was stunning Cotto early. Fact.

    Cotto had to cheat to win. Fact.

    Paulie and Judah landed a lot on Cotto. If those two landed a lot with there speed think what PBF would do with his. I disagree with the point that PBF is that much faster than Paulie. PBF is faster but I don't think PBF is that much faster making Paulie look slow or anything like that.
