    he says cotto was his thoughest fight ever that he was up on points through the first 5 rounds and that he is very very strong...said mayweather better be careful if he thinks cotto is easy

    Floyd never underestimates anyone, I will be surprised if he wins as easily as a lot of people think.

    Floyd wouldn't underestimate a teenager or his ex woman so he damn sure won't underestimate Cotto.

    Pacquiao also says that Cotto (not JMM) was his hardest opponent and that Cotto was ahead on points going into the 5th round LOL that loss to Marquez must burn his soul.....

    Anyway Floyd don't underestimate ANYONE according to Manny he is the one who does that!:good

    floyd never understimates his opponents that's why he wants to have all the advantages. he may even cheat the scales like what he did against jmm to gai more advantage.

    Sounds like Pacquiao has been punched in the head one time too many.

    Mayweather already has...he's signed to fight Canelo...
    They're talking as if Ortiz was a bigger challenge and Cotto is nothing more than a tune up for his Canelo showdown!!!

    That's because he knows the technical style of Cotto is predictable and needs space. He's never had a problem with a guy like that.

    Marquez has proven he doesn't suck against anyone except Floyd - because Floyd has that textbook style timed like its nothing. Oscar has a spastic mentality at times, his combinations and flurries are not quite the same as the measured and well timed ones JMM and Cotto throw.

    I hope Cotto can be effective, but I think his style plays right into Floyd comfortably. I think Ortiz was a bigger challenge to Floyd, even though he is not as good as Cotto, because he was a huge puncher and left handed with a tendency to blitz. Cotto needs to try that blitzing mentality and forget about timing Floyd.

    Those straight rights and left uppercuts from Marquez that he was eating all night in their 3rd fight have really done a number on Manny's brain. :hey

    Marquez clearly did better, but Cotto definitely did a lot of damage. When Ariza says Pacquiao truly feared Cotto and trained his best for that fight, I believe it; it showed.

    I don't think Floyd underestimates anyone when in training, but psychologically it may be a bit of a surprise if Cotto brings more than he expects.
