    DO you remember when we used to watch Miguel Cotto training and comment here about how slow he looked at training??? Very different from the way he looked inside the ring back then. Even before Cotto/Magarito I. Well, I just watched the 3 episodes of 24/7 and I like what I see. Miguel looks fast in training this time. Not saying he will beat FLoyd, but I totally like what I am seeing. Did anyone else noticed the difference??????

    I did. He looks pretty fast and sharp in training. Before it was just like he was going through the motions. Cotto and Diaz is a perfect combination. I expect Cotto to be very sharp both mentally and physically come May 5th. Mayweather had better be on his "A" game.

    It could be that Cotto is gonna have better results with a trainer who gets loud and asserts some authority on Cotto.

    Cotto is in his prime, both mentally and physically. The trainer to bring out the best in him, more confidence, experience. Everything truly is in place.

    MC is a boxer, and will give as good as he gets. Mayweather shouldn't give up any ground, and best same some in the tank. Rounds 6-12 will be won on heart.

    I think Mayweather comes from behind, wins the last 3 rounds.

    Like Floyd said, everyone looks great in camp, the proof is gonna be what happens in the ring. From what I saw in Margo 2, I think Cotto is done and is gonna get picked apart and TKO'd late.

    Cotto was doing the same **** in Margo 2 as in Margo 1, the only difference was Margo only had 1 eye and isn't as strong at 154 as he is at 147. That being said even with 1 eye Margo was still able to bust up Miguel and touch him at will.

    Cotto won every round of the second fight. And never in the 2nd fight did he bust him up.

    Preach. All that matters is the W, which Cotto took home

    That's simply wrong. Cotto was running along the perimeter of the ring along the ropes wastefully in the first fight circling in one direction, and in the second, he consistently controlled the center through lateral movement, and when he needed to, handled Margarito in the clinch comfortably. Margarito clearly did not touch him "at will"; Cotto's head movement inside, guard, clinching skills, and balance were all conducive to him eating much fewer punches.

    This is my logic and prediction on the fight. If Margarito can tee off on Cotto, what do you expect Floyd to do. Mayweather in 9. Not saying Cotto hasn't improved, but the speed difference will make him look very ordinary. In the words of Tarver,"Cotto will have to fight a perfect fight to beat Mayweather."
