LMW is a weak division for the last couple of years. there's a reason cotto went up after pac had beaten him at WW.

Cotto would starch Alvarez, Molina, Lara, bundrage, trout and kirkland. **** Marg would spark them too especially Alvarez.

Q: What is Cottos most dangerous attribute as a fighter, and does he have a fighting chance against you on May 5?

Floyd Mayweather: As Ive said before, in order to be the best you have to beat the best, and that is what Miguel Cotto has to do on May 5. He has to beat me.

Cotto is always dangerous in the ring. He is relentless and has already proved his heart and will to win. He is definitely one of the top champions in boxing today.

Miguel Cotto without a doubt is a great matchup for me. Any boxing fan knows that there is a long line of champions who hail from Puerto Rico, and Cotto definitely ranks up there with the greats. Thats why I know the Puerto Rican fans will be watching on May 5, but they are going to be disappointed.

I never write off any opponent until I meet them in the ring. I am aware that I will be moving up in weight for the first time since 2007, which not only poses as a challenge for me, but it does give Cotto a slight advantage because he will remain at his comfort weight of 154. While many may see this as Cottos chance and opportunity to end my undefeated record, I think that its also important to remember that I chose to move up in weight and give Cotto that advantage because I am confident that I can beat him at any weight.

I know Cotto will be a very hard fight. He is at a place in his career where he is confident and experienced, and I know that because he is fighting me, this is the biggest fight he has ever had. Those factors always make a fighter dangerous and might be the most important part of what he is bringing to the ring that night.

Cotto is an aggressive power-punching fighter in the ring, but I know that I have the skills to beat him. I am faster, and his strength could be the thing to get in his way when he starts swinging and I start ducking.
One thing that the success of my career has thrived on is the fact that Im willing to challenge myself, understand what my opponent brings to the ring and take full advantage of it. I am too smart, experienced and determined to let anyone beat me.

Im well aware of Cottos potential and the advantages that he possesses in the ring on any given night, but come May 5, those advantages arent going to do him any good. Fight fans get ready because Im about to dethrone the current king of the 154-pound weight class.
