    Strength has nothing to do with punching power.

    No. But that doesn't mean he isn't stronger.

    Really simply put baby cakes...

    Ricky Hatton was physically strong at LWW, who do you think hit harder? Him or Kostya?

    Who do you think was the physically stronger guy?

    :roll:

    A shorter man fighting a shorter man's fight can beat a taller opponent if he's good enough at it.

    This is pretty much true - Mayweather's craft is his real advantage. . . Craft, and just general Ring IQ. . .

    Mayweather is also A LOT physically stronger than you might think. . Maybe not so much punching power, but he's a strong guy - and his technique just makes him seem even stronger - he knows how to position his body so he can't be bullied around. . . Basically it's his legs/core against other guys arms, and shoulders.


    BUt I also agree with the TS. . . Cotto will have even a harder time being short, squat, and much noticeably slower. . .

    COtto's main weapon, the left hook: (aside from his jab) Cotto can forget about the left hook - Mayweather shuts that down by default with his stance, and how he lays his arm/elbow over his body. . Let Cotto hit them sharp ass elbows of Mayweather, and see how eager he is to throw a full powered left hook to the body again. . .

    If he wants to have ANY chance, he has to use his right hand - not just his straight right, but right hooks, adn uppercuts as well.

    EDIT: by using right hands, he could then set up a left hook later in the fight by getting Mayweather to use that lead arm he normally drapes across his body, to use as another guard, or to deflect/catch punches with upstairs.

    soft chin wth?

    you mean when he drained himself to make 140 and the catchweight with pacquiao?

    he ate a super uppercut at 147 and recovered before he shot a low blow. He took an accumulation beating by margarito and was still awake. i honestly believe cotto's chin is underrated. It's not great but its definently good.
