Current Cotto vs DLH (who fought floyd)

It's styles. Mayorga is always going to be a tough fight for Cotto. In fact prime for prime he might beat him. Cotto has trouble with tough chinned / aggressive fighters.

 

Shane Mosley had trouble with him too before he stopped him. And Mayorga is an awkward opponent, so no one is gonna look good fighting him, even if you dominate him.

 

Oscar looked good.:yep

 

Trinidad also looked good against him and Mayorga was younger for that one. But look what happened to Trinidad in his next fight with Winky.

 

Tito and Hoya looked pretty good against him.

 

I'm saying that it's silly to say Hoya was shell of himself against Mayweather when he looked so good in his prior fight against Mayorga, and when he performed relatively well against Mayweather.

 

DLH in the Cotto fight was FADED
DLH in the Pacquaio fight was SHOT


Don't see much argument with that?

 

Going to have to rate Oscar's win as better. He only took half the time against a better Mayorga

 

I see an argument. DLH didn't ever fight Cotto(e)

 

If DLH fought Cotto then he'd hold a clear size advantage, and posess the superior jab IMO which would allow him offensive initiative. I don't think that version of Oscar stops Cotto, (I wouldn't rule out a flash knockdown off the left hook as Cotto goes slightly off balance.) but I think DLH would of taken a 116 - 112 type thing.

 

Over the hill, faded, on his way to shot, part-time fighter DLH, or w/e you want to call him performed better against Floyd than many other fighters.

He won 3 rounds, 2 being very clear. Some people had him winning 4. He gave Mayweather his 2nd or 3rd hardest fight even at his declined stage.

Too good for Cotto(e). Diff class of fighter

 

based on what? both were shot to **** only difference is Margo had 1 eye

 

The DLH that fought Mayweather would KO any version of Cotto.
