**Ok..convince me on how PBF would defeat Cotto?**

It doesn't matter. You aren't going to post a non bias analysis on why Cotto would beat Floyd.





And Cotto's defense sucks.

 

Also, no one gives a **** if they convince you or not. You are the old man who tried to convince everyone Baldomir was going to TKO Floyd.

 

I've made my argument in other post. Use the search button.

 

Well let me first say I'm a big fan of both Cotto and Mayweather. This would be a great fight. But Mayweather would win in my opinion. He does have the pop to hurt Cotto. He has way better stamina and he would wear Cotto down. Mayweather has a very underrated body attack. Those sharp little jabs he throws to his opponents dont look like much but they take alot out of you later in the fight. Plus Mayweather would take away Cottos money punch which is the left hook. Mayweather is faster then Cotto and would counter him to death when Cotto would try to unload to his body. Mayweather might not stop him but he'd win a UD in my opinion.

 

Did you know PBF's grandmother was from San Juan?

 

Simple, Cotto throughout his career has been acceptable to taking punches. Floyd takes advantage of this and coasts to a UD. Floyd is a better boxer than Mosley and he won't engage Cotto earlier on. By pot shotting, Floyd is able to take these earlier rounds. Also, Floyd is an great fighter on the inside, rarely taking damage. So if Cotto gets inside (either behind the jab like DLH did or recklessly like Hatton) I don't think Floyd will necessarily give him an opportunity to score. IMO, Floyd potshots earlier on and starts to open up towards the end. I have Floyd winning 116-112 IMO. My opinion might change if this fight takes place 2010 or later.

 

:rofl

 

:good Excellent post.

 

Did he actually say that? :yikes

Maybe you're just making it up to make him look bad.

 

Cotto's defense is very lacking. He gets hit too often and is very open to right hands. Cotto in the early rounds against Judah, was being beat to the punch by the much faster Judah. As Judah faded, Cotto took over. This won't happen. Floyd will beat Cotto to the punch all night long. Taking control of Cotto's openings, the straight right hand and the uppercuts. Cotto will come forward with his hands high and chin low only to take shot after shot trying to come in. Everytime Cotto sets to punch Mayweather will have hit him and already moved on. Cotto will never get set. Cotto will pop the jab after finding initial success, only to be countered over the top by Floyds right hand. Cotto will become frustrated as the night goes on and realize Mayweathers power is far underrated. Cotto will try to work Floyds body pressuring him up against the ropes, he will hit nothing but air and arms. (Unless he decides its time to go low).

Mosley, Judah and I believe Urkal all landed over 45% of their power shots on Cotto. Mayweather the best plus minus fighter will have an even easier time.


Cotto is kept off balance by Floyds sharp counters and possibly gets stop on cuts to the mouth/excessive bleeding of the mouth/chin.

 

Yes he actually said that and no Im not making it up. He has picked against Mayweather since the Gatti fight.


his reasoning is, he doesn't like Mayweather on a personal level, so he doesn't pick him in fights.
