Prediction for Tonight

I wouldn't be surprised to see Mayweather stop Cotto. If Floyd is aggressive, he stops him mid-late rounds... If he gets clipped, he'll go into safety mode and win a decision.

I think Alvarez will stop Mosely. He's done. Totally done.

 

Double post.

 

Cotto will try to press Floyd......I doubt he will try to box in the back foot.
Maybe his body punches can do some damage.....I really hope Miguel wins, but I can´t see how.....he is too slow in comparison with Floyd, slow hands and slow movements.....

Floyd by UD. I don´t think Cotto will win more than 3 rounds.......

 

I'm with you... Money May by TKO7. :good

I also totally agree with this too. :good


...Now off for a 3 hour nap, hopefully not missing any of Alverez-Mosely. :tired

 

I think this is the overwhelming sentiment.

 

Predictions. PAIN!!!!

Sorry couldn't help myself. Mosley gives Alvarez a good fight but.drops a wide decision. Mayweather counters and pot shots all night but advanced age means he takes a few more shots than we're used to seeing.

PS so i'm the only one rooting for Floyd?

 

Little Red: You may be. Cotto is a hard man to root against. There is no facade, no fakery. Just an honest, hard working, tough guy who gives his best every time out. Mad respect to him. How could you not hope he pulls off one of the bigger upsets in recent memory?

Mayweather makes it easy to root against him. He's a jackass. Insane ability, but he's a ****.

As for the other anticipated fight tonight:

I think Mosley is the perfect test for young Canelo at this point. If he wins in impressive fashion, he's in the big fight game. He wins, but not emphatically, he stays about where he's at, and that's struggling to break into the major scene.

I think he has what it takes and hits hard enough to keep old man Mosley honest. He should win a decision, and I'm gunning for a stoppage. The first to do so.

 

I can't add anything to what you guys have posted. As with most I wish Cotto would find a way to win but can't fanthom him doing it.

 

I'd like Cotto to kick Floyd's ass tonight....but he won't...

 

I don't think Cotto will win tonight, but I am shocked at the consensus that Mayweather will dominate and/or stop him.

Cotto has only been beaten by fighters that throw in high volume and don't fight to Cotto's set pace. When Miguel sets the tempo and boxes on the front foot he is effective. Especially now he has got his footwork back from the mess it was against Clottey and Pacquiao.

Going backwards he is a different fighter, going forward he can make full use of his bodywork and strong jab. I honestly see a close fight, maybe 7-5 in rounds to Mayweather or something of that nature. People keep forgetting that Cotto has faced and competed with the very best of his era/weightclass and never looked out of his depth, and Mayweather, may I add, is not getting any younger either.

 

Yep. This is very true.
