    Cotto just needs to fight an intelligent fight. I think he would do better getting mayweather to lead

    I think Cottos jab is better than Floyds. He can hurt Floyd with it, double it and possibly catch Floyd coming in with his counter lead right he likes to use over the jab. Cotto should worry more about that right than the check left hook. By using that jab on overtime and make Floyd defend or counter more Cotto has a chance. His combination punching just as good as Floyds tho not as fast but as effective. Cottos body attack is also better.

    i'd say cotto has better punching power than floyd at 154 and 147. sure he's diminished...but this may be a career defining moment for cotto. i think he has enough left to make a fight of it. he doesn't have to be better in all departments to beat mayweather. he just needs to be more determined. he's a cerebral fighter capable of making adjustments and sticking to game plans. he's battled back from adversity in the past. there's no reason for me to believe he isn't capable of doing it one last time. sure mayweather is the favorite...but i'm not counting cotto out.
