    Cotto's friend and sparring partner who also had the same trainer. Their styles are very similar.

    Except that Cotto is a 3 divisions champions and Brusseles isn't good enough to beat my stepmother.

    :lol::good

    yeah, basically you are Right.

    Floyd could have fight all of them but he never did.

    That being said Floyd would have beaten him IMO but he doesnt give a **** about giving Boxing fans good fights or his legacy.

    Not only did he win, Floyd also beat "Cotto's style" on the inside and in the pocket.:thumbsup

    And for a man of his extraordinary talent, it's a shame that's all it is.

    "oh he would've cruised against Cotto"...."Margarito? ****, Floyd would've hit that punchbag all night"...."Nope. He would've tagged Williams on his way in, too easily"

    It'll be ****ed up if Pacquiao's name is added to that list, too.

    In all fairness, Cotto is light years better than Brusseles, Cotto is faster and punches harder, better chin etc. would have been a diffrent fight all together, that being said, i still would have picked Floyd to win.

    Too bad he didn't take his confidence up with him from SFW/LW. The guy has all the skill in the world but wasted his time facing JMM & Mitchell. People forget that he was amazing at SFW/LW(really pre-Castillo 1) and pretty offensive.

    His pocket game is top shelf. He should do that crip walk dance after he knocks Pacquiao down also. The pacNation would love that.

    Faster? No.

    Better chin? Perhaps, but not enough to talk about. Cotto has kissed the mat & been hurt a number of times.

    Hits harder? I agree, but Cotto is not a big devastating puncher. He's accumulative like Floyd. I just think Cotto is mainly more spirited and accurate.

    I was watching some old mayweather fights last week and he was vicious, in the post interviews he seemed like a really nice hungry kid who loves boxing. really likeable guy.
    If he just stayed himself and kept his desire when moving up in weight he would have been top 10 atg perhaps. now he is just the fantasy match up king.

    He couldn't have fought all of anybody. There are no WW who have fought "all of them". And fight them for who? You? If I were Floyd I wouldn't give a **** about you boxing fans either.

    Forums and media sources are packed with negative comments and coverage. I applaud him for not responding when people want him to respond. He's been dealing with **** for years and I have to assume that at a certain point he just says ****'em.
