Cotto Vs Mayweather: The Fight That Should Have Happened.

Mayweather is BIGGER, STRONGER, faster, better, smarter, better conditioned, better chin and MUCH better defense.

If this fight happened Cotto would have looked ordinary. The ONLY reason people wanted this is because people desperately need for someone/anyone to be able to beat Mayweather because they hate him. Trust me on this, Cotto WAS/IS NOT the guy to do it

 

Cotto would never beat Floyd in my opinion at 147 he got away from that crippling body attack and tried to box and switch stances and move. When it took him 5 rounds to get Gomez outta there i was starting to second guess him and then when he was running for the hills against Margo I thought he was done. I gave the clottey fight to Clottey. And Pac beat him up. Floyd probably would have one against any form of Cotto

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

Ah no ,, Floyd skills are that mad, which is the reason Arum never made the fight happen when Arum was both fighter's promoters. When floyd was at 140 he would have put a beating on Cotto at 147 it would have been a lot closer.

 

I cant even describe how bummed I am this never happened, their styles and personalities make for such an interesting fight.

 

haha.atsch


TRY AGAIN :good, I have faith that you can tap into a little bit of your brain on this match up.

 

I always thought the Cotto that defeated Mosley would have had the right style to beat Mayweather. Cotto at that time started using a stiff jab, he had the great pressure, his speed was still good then and his timing was outstanding. I think Cotto could have used the DLH gameplan but executed much more effectivly. Its a shame though Mayweather didnt wanna take that risk and now Cotto is probablly to worn down to have any chance should they ever fight. Cotto atleast can retire one day knowing he fought the best, beat the best, acted like a Champion in and out of the ring.

 

fraudweather knows Cottoo would have slaughtered his ass. remember Mercahnt asked him about fighting Cotto in 08 and fraud answered, "I will retire from boxing before I let boxing retire me."

case closed. fraud knew.,

also remember Bernard Hopkins quote about the potential fight: "Cotto will be a nightmare for Floyd."

and Dougie Fischer said: "Cotto will run Mayweather out of the ring."

fraud was scared to take this fight because 1 he's a ***** 2 he was scared and 3 he knew he would get kncoked the F*** out. coward

 

What was I wrong about?

Floyd IS bigger
Floyd IS stronger
- Look Cotto was looked at as a beast at 140 against lesser caliber fighters, but it has been shown that he IS NOT that imposing of a fighter. When he had to start fighting big, skilled guys he was forced to become "the boxer" and was not able to impose himself. Floyd is very strong, very crafty and he would control Cotto in the clinches :deal

I highly doubt you take exception with any of the other things I posted :deal

 

Point 1 Quartey had a killer jab and god I miss it :good Point 2 you are correct Cotto was all wrong for Mayweather and the Fraud knew it and ran and ran until Cotto was damaged good and knew noboddy would ask the Cotto question anymore. Now I know people will say well **** Cotto shouldnt have lost but Cotto lost because he took risk in his career he fought guys Fraud has been ducking and avoiding like Pac, Mosley, Margarito and for that Cotto will always be the man while Fraud is just that FRAUD.

 

Miguel Cotto primed out so hard against Margarito. I mean Cotto looked like an ox in that fight. But the truth is Cotto is a blown up 140lber, Margarito is a big 147lber and was most likely cheating. Cotto was downright nasty with his power and speed and composite combination punching. Cotto could pressure Floyd, and stick on the move. Where all of Mayweather's opponents telegraphed their punches, Miguel Cotto didn't. Where the majority of Mayweathers opponents had average accuracy, Cotto had supreme accuracy. Where most of Mayweather's opponents had an average ring IQ, Cotto had an exellent ring IQ. The difference in Cotto's difficult fights, his opponents had serious power AND were brick walls(the pac fight + his weight draining days at 140lbs are not worth mentioning). Is Floyd a brick wall? No. Does Floyd have much power. No. Does Floyd have some speed? Yes, have Cotto's opponents had speed? Yes.

nothing lil Floyd would do as shown in his PATHETIC welterweight campaign would tell us that he'd be anything special against Cotto. In fact the fight would just be a measly chess match and nothing else. I highly doubt Mayweather would engage with Cotto with an intense pressurized offensive onslaught. He'd just put his stick and run shoes for 12 rounds (which would not impress Cotto AT ALL). Thats what Mayweather will do with Mosley. As expected. The difference between Cotto and Mosley is that Cotto sets his shots up 10x better than shane. shane who hardly employs an effective jab, and who is really just a hyper aggressive, fast, power puncher is going to look bad against Floyd. Cotto on the otherhand is an entirely different fighter.

If you look hard enough you'd realize that the evidence points in favor of Cotto giving Mayweather hell (who isn't even tested at 147lbs). Cotto WAS THE MAN, at 147lbs. Floyd never was.

 

Which proves mayweather's point when he say's in boxing(for the lower weight classes) all roads lead to him

 

its just a ****in shame floyd seems to be on a different road.......

 

Would never happen. btw what prime fighter has cotto knocked out who was actually a good fighter? just wanted to know

 

doesn't really matter what road chooses to be on because as he said ALL roads lead to him
