    Yeah I think Mayweather will be more aggressive than usual. I've noticed it in his last few fights (Mosley and Ortiz). I think he is gonna walk Cotto down and make him work.

    Am I allowed to say Floyd UD, or is that a given?

    Floyd's legs aren't what they used to be, he's willing to stand a little more and let hands go a bit more as well.

    It will be a nice fight because styles blend well.

    Floyd UD is the most likely result. the question in my mind is can Cotto hit hard enough at light-middleweight to hurt Floyd?

    Is this fight definitely for Cotto's WBA belt?
