The Only Way Cotto Beats Floyd Is To Hurt Him Early

There is no "maybe" as to who hits harder between Cotto and Mayweather.

Just my take (and b4 you rant on whoever you are Im a fan of both guys)...my reasoning is that Floyd is better defensivley, is a lot faster, is a better technition, better ring general and definatley as equal to Cotto in terms of Conditioning (if not slightly ahead). The only thing Cotto has is heavier hands. Maybe....(Floyd has underated power)..

Dont misunderstand me - Cotto is excellent at all of the above (maybe not so much speed wise) but its just that Floyd is a little better and way faster. If Cotto can really hurt floyd early on he has a chance to capitalize on a wounded fighter...but if he cant land clean and slow Floyd down and assuming Floyd come as he always does - 100% I just can see Cotto coming away with the win.

Cotto is a "methodical breaker" that's his strength I just cant see him getting ontop of Floyd that way. Floyd is very hard to hit.

Awesome post!:good

Also why do everyone overlook the fact that Floyd came into the fight with JLC injured? He beat him clearly in the second fight (though I do think he should have lost the first one).

There is no blue print to beat Mayweather yet!
