Come on.. do you hate Mayorga or something? This isn't worth discussing. Anyone who votes for Mayorga is joking.
Cotto in more skilled, he hits as hard, or close to, and has a good enough chin at Welter to stand up to Mayorga. Cotto by UD.
cotto easily, though i'm also a mayorga fan. mayorga dont like it to the body, if i remember correctly a left to the body from tito finished him in that fight, after taking numerous flush lefts on the chin.
you dont think cotto could win this by tko or ko, we all know mayorga cant take body shots at all, just look when he both fought DLH and Trinidad... this is cottos type of fight to win easily...
Too many short punches from Cotto on the inside would be too much for Mayorga. Vargas' offense bothered him in, what I think were, the 4th and 5th rounds last night. Vargas appeared to have dialed Ricardo in, until Mayorga undid Vargas with a body shot in round 6. Cotto would continually beat Mayorga to the punch, and would probably stop him around 5 rounds. I'll give Mayorga a puncher's chance, as Cotto's chin isn't as strong as his will is.
spirte-"cotto would be intimidated by mayorga" ARE YOU RETARTED?? Cotto is puerto rican man, we invite danger.
Chin BS? "Chop Chop" is such a devistating puncher, how dare anyone question Cotto's chin just because this man wobbled him badly? Cotto has shown an iron will, but being wobbled by Corley does not show an iron chin. It is not an insult to Cotto to say he doesn't have a great chin. It is just a fact of life. Cotto do doesn't punch as hard as Trinidad. Is it insulting to say that? Cotto's hand speed will never be like Meldrick Taylor's. Are you fuming after hearing those words? Wait a second. Cotto will never be as tall as Lennox Lewis. You ready to fight me now? Are you so unconditionally in love with someone, that when someone points out a flaw you can't hanle it? All fighters have flaws. I just posted that Cotto would stop Mayorga inside of 5 rounds. I give Mayorga only a puncher's chance of winning. Mayorga does hit harder than anyone Cotto has faced. Ask Vernon Forrest if Mosley's power is in the same league with Ricardo. If you can hit like Mayorga, and you're fighting someone that can be wobbled by Corley; wouldn't you feel like you deserve a puncher's chance?
Mayorga is too sloppy, wide, and predictable. And the guy only throws one punch at a time. No reason why Cotto shouldn't win. Cotto by late TKO.
are we talking about the same mayorga that smokes marlboros and eats KFC and drink a twelve pack of beer. stamania will be an issue plus cotto is in a whole other class. please give the boxing a break................... this discussion is joke.................... mayweather aka flava flav is next
