    Mayweather by wide UD. Cotto has no hope in this bout.

    And who would you prefer in his stead? I hate to break it to you but your analysis of this match-up extends to any potential Floyd fight under 160, and that is that none of them have a chance. Floyd is quite simply the greatest of his generation and the most technically skilled fighter in the game today and it is going to take a bigger man to erase his "0" because there aren't any WWs or JMWs skilled enough to do the job.

    :adminSo, Cotto will be in over his head and worse off than Ortiz who started getting to Floyd in the 4th ?

    According to you Cotto has no chance when De La Hoya was dictating the fight until he abandonned his jab!!! :yikes

    It's an insult to compare Donaire to Mayweather. Donaire doesn't have nearly as complete of a tool set. You know this.

    Oscar has a better jab than Cotto(e). You know this.

    Oscar threw more jabs later in the fight and still got schooled anyways.

    I expect Cotto to give Floyd a fight! I literally, think COTTO'S STYLE, mixed with his new confidence can create a lot of problems for Floyd...STYLES MAKE FIGHTS.

    Cotto has big shoulders, is a big WW or Average JMW, decents speed, good boxing skill, and he knows timing.....

    That's everything that was said to be a problem for Floyd...

    Cotto Mayweather is no mismatch. When has Cotto ever been in a fight where he wasn't competitive? Mayweather better protect his body cause Cotto's gonna brutalize those ribs.

    I mean Cotto couldn't beat Floyd at no stage in his career. At 140, Cotto would have been annihilated. Floyd was at his absolute peak at 140. At 147, Cotto gets out boxed 10-2 or 11-1. In this fight I believe Floyd will walk Cotto down and potentially stop him.
