    Floyd is the favorite and if they fought today he takes a close decision. But he walks through hell to get it and it is his toughest fight. Cotto is for real, if they fight in two years I would favor him if he continues to ascend.

    I wouldn't be so quick to bet on Mayweather where this one is concerned. I think Cotto has the sytle and the tools to cause him big, big trouble. I really liked the way Cotto responded against Judah - and that was his big problem previously.

    Pretty boy won't like those body shots.

    Has PBF retired for sure or is that just BS to try and create hype when he makes his 'stunning comeback'?

    I'd go Mayweather on a close decision, but Cotto has a shot. Both of these guys are really tough and can take some punishment equally.

    Cotto's relentlessness is going to cause Floyd all kinds of trouble.

    i was thinking the same thing......however, i would still pick mayweather by fairly easy decision, he is better now than he was when catillo gave him trouble in the first fight

    Yes you have. It's just that Floyd doesn't show you he's been hurt to the body which is not the same thing at all. No fighter who has ever lived is so tough to the body that they brush of being hit in the ribs by a great body puncher.

    It's just that the tough guys don't show.

    Put it this way - he's got the best shot out of anyone around this weight. I'd probably pick Cotto. I think Floyd edges it in the punishment-taking stakes though. A bit.

    I'd pick Cotto because I like Cotto, but inside I'd feel that Mayweather would get it.

    I'd cheer for Cotto and I think he has a decent chance, but I'd favor Mayweather to win with that lame style of his.

    Floyd would win..but he would take some big shots and his ribs would be sore.
