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

READ THE FIRST PAGE OF THE THREAD and SCROLL DOWN.

 

You have to look at one underlying point whenever someone signs to fight PBF: How easily can they be hit? Thats almost all that matters. If PBF can figure out a way to hit you, he will figure you out and by rounds 6-8 you will be getting nailed REPEATEDLY by laser accurate punches until you forget your entire gameplan.

Baldomir, Hatton, and Judah (once he slows down) are easy fighters to hit, so PBF hit them very cleanly and discourages them. The only reason Oscar wasnt so easy to hit was due to the size advantage and power. Cotto is a very strong fighter, and one that I LOVE to watch, but Mosely hit him a lot, and he wasnt nearly as active or accurate as PBF would be. Judah's shots rocked Cotto in the early rounds, but he gave up and let Cotto steamroll him. This would NOT happen against Floyd. PBF would be landing his best shots as the fight progressed, which would be new to Cotto. Mosely could have beat Cotto if he threw more accurate punches and if he let his hands go more. PBF would do this and much more defensively and beat Cotto fairly convincingly.

 

Mayweather fans (including me) say that Mayweather has some advantages over Cotto.

Cotto fans say that Cotto has some advantages over Mayweather.

Who is right and who is wrong? WE DON'T KNOW.

There are probabilities that Mayweather beats Cotto, or maybe the opposite. We don't know. People will have opinions but nobody will be sure.

Period.

 

This is the truest statement ever made...its desperation

 

Mayweather can take Cotto's shots if he can take Delahoya's at 154 his chin is very underrated

 

No Cotto's defence is not better than most think, the fact is he DOES get hit alot, whether you wanna admit that or not. The thing that makes cotto dangerous is his willingness to come forward dig deep and keep going he's like a bull. I have read that the game plan to beat mayweather is by "effective pressure", now although that may work, i honestly dont think that floyd is going to let cotto settle into that "effectiveness" because of his excellent footwork and ability to get in and get out, very quickly. He has an excellent jab wit lazer right hands and an immaculate defence. I believe that the game plan floyd used against hatton should be employed against cotto, with a few adjusments.

Now onto Cotto, as we witnessed against mosley he has improved alot in terms of his ability to stay on the outside and counter using his jab when needed, he fought a very tactical fight. Everyone is talking about Cotto's dangerous body punching, that would hurt floyd. LET IT BE KNOWN IF COTTO COMES IN U CAN BET UR MORTGAGE, THE SAME HOOK THAT DROPPED HATTON WILL BE WAITING. To beat floyd, Cotto must mix it up head, head, body, body. come in, go out and throw volume of punches as dela hoya did (except land those shots and not hit da gloves). The other advantage cotto has the power to hurt floyd

Now for my prediction, i predict floyd by UD, simply because i dont think FLOYD is going to let cotto settle into his game plan. Floyd is a master of the ring and at analysing his opponents weaknesses. Slowly, slowly, round by round floyd will pick cotto apart on his way to a decisive but competitive fight.

If he doesn't do something about what's in bold....he won't make it to Mayweather that **** only last so long and he's talking about fighting Mayorga....yea aight!!!

 

Orishaman, it's one of those things where if you dont already know, I can't tell you. Why the **** do you think we care to prove to you why Mayweather would win? If you are that stupid you arent worth anyone wasting their time telling you.

 

im not a pbf fan but i think the only way anyone will beat him is to knock him out cotto would run out of time and just get the stick and move and whenever cotto gets inside he's gotta deal with the defence of mayweather
i dont think a power puncher will beat floyd but i think someone really awkward will beat him
a style he cant figure out

 

I think Cotto will stop Void Mayweather, but Void will never take that fight, he knows better.

 

and its all coming full circle on his ass the day he fights Cotto.

 

Pfb would be on his bicycle all night landing right hands and some uppercuts when Cotto would barge in.

 

Cotto is a good fighter! But I expect he'll have trouble landing; Will get potshotted and frustrated until he starts to make bad desicions then Floyd will systematically pick him apart!

We'll see when the fight actually happens but I expect a clear Floyd victory.

 

I like Cotto, but i think Mayweather would be a tad too clever although i hope not.. Rooting for Cotto, betting on Mayweather.
