    jaco, in all honesty, did you read my breakdown on Mayweather vs Cotto from a few months ago? Because I'm reading the two and there's quite a bit of similarities in the wording as well as the points made. And I assure you I typed out my analysis originally in February when sending it via PM to a poster who I don't wish to name.

    I did read your analysis a few months ago when i was in the process of making my own analysis. You did a great job and I researched some of the points you highlighted and thought it would make my agrument more sound. I extended some things you said aswell as adding my own thoughts and ideas into it. In all honesty your probably the best analyst I've seen on here and some of things you've written are spot on.

    I didn't meen to offend you (its more of compliment), if you want me to change it I will.

    No, I'm not offended:lol:

    Just was shocked by how similar they were. Don't change it, unless you want to be wrong about the future fight between them:yep

    All analyses will be similiar anyway, because the same points will have be brought up when deciding upon a winner.

    I think like many fighters, he'd try to bend the rules in order to win the fight (he already does this), but nothing like a Golota, Tyson, or Judah against Floyd.

    Unless it's really extreme, I don't think too much of guys fighting dirty. You watch enough boxing and you get used to it.

    Cotto barely got by a 36 yr old shopworn SSM, no way in hell he beats a peak PBF.

    PBF by wide UD or late stoppage IMO.

    What makes you think PBF is peak?

    Mayweather is above his best weight class, and if and when the fight finally takes place, Mayweather will be at least 32.

    Times are different nowadays and some athletes go on longer, but 32 is no spring chicken.

    And despite PBF being more technical and textbook than guys like Ali and RJJ, his reflexes do play a big part in him being as good as he is.

    SSM has been on the decline since 04, while PBF has shown no signs of being on the decline; besides 30,31 or 32 is still a hell of alot younger than 36.

    Its gonna be impossible for Cotto to land any solid punches on Floyd, especially considering the fact that Fraud simply refuses to get in the ring with him. :deal

    No.

    Mosley looked at the ref because he slipped on the canvas a little, thus the ref stopping the action.
