Prizefighter, McCloskey/Corley, Huck/Afolabi II & Mayweather/Cotto RbR!

Agree Mand' - I think there's a danger if people ending up like Colonel Bob with giving Floyd props, Cotto really should be credited for a fantastic performance. Really was a great version of Cotto we saw last night.

 

If it didn't why demand it?

Pacman is a great champ, but they weight drained Cotto.

They didn't weight drain Hatton, Clottey.

 

:deal

The night i sat there upset as he took a beating off Pac, I would never of imagined Cotto would of pushed Mayweather to his hardest fight in years!. The man is sheer class!! Good fight and Cotto can move on with head held high.

He beats Alvarez IMO, Not sold on that kid..

 

Couple of things from scene article:

- Mayweather hurt is hand in sparring and couldn't train properly in the week leading up to the fight.

- Mayweather came to the ring weighing 147:admin

It did seem to me that Cotto was able to bully Floyd a bit at times.

 

How do you guys see a pacquiao-cotto rematch going at 154? Same as the first or would this cotto be able to make it a lot closer or win?

 

Cotto's a better fighter then the man Manny fought back then, He's got a proper trainer and he's developed over that time on some aspects of his game.

Plus i didn't know he was a heavy drinker up and till last few years, shocked me a little i know he beat the Uncle up but the drinking i never knew.

I think it's a closer fight, One i think Miguel would like on his terms.

 

Yea if pacquiao beats bradley and the floyd fight doesn't happen(which it won't). I wouldn't mind seeing this rematch as long as their are no weight stipulations on cotto,I didn't think I'd say that after the 1st fight.

 

Regarding that, I've always thought that Cotto would've pushed Pacquiao to the wire if not for that uppercut in the 4th. He never recovered from it and thus the beating ensued. Otherwise he'd have stayed in the fight imo, regardless of how useless Santiago was.

 

Is Cotto still with Top Rank?

 

No he's a free agent but they could work together again.

 

Ah I see, cheers Baj. :good

 

I think I scored it 115-113 with Mayweather taking the last 2 rounds, mind you I could barely see at that point.

 

Yeah I don't think he will fight him at 154,just if arum was to pursue a rematch I'd rather cotto not come down I thought he looked physically better than I've ever seen him last night.
