    We all know what happened to Cotto against Pacquiao and people are judging Pacquiao's performance against Marquez in their 3rd bout how Mayweather will easily beat Pac.

    But what if Cotto gives Floyd a tough fight?

    How are Pacquiao's chances? Every Boxer will always have that ''TOUGH'' fight against another boxer, Marquez has Pacquiao's number.

    Will Pacquiao be that boxer who Mayweather will have a very tough fight with?
    Thoughts?

    Pacquiao was pretty banged up against Cotto, so, event win Mayweather KO1 Poochiao PacaMay on the runny kine, most likely, I suspect.

    If cotto gives Floyd the trouble I expect him to (Cotto's way STRONGER than Marquez was against Maywether) then the pac fans will make a case...even tho Money wins against Pacman everyday of the week, twice on sundays!!

    I'm a huge ******* by the way and 2 years ago could see Pac STOPPING PBF....not now.

    If he struggles the Pac fans will rise from the cracks!

    But I expect him to dominate in typical floyd fashion.

    I agree with you although Im a pacquiao fan. Im also a big fan of mayweather but it's ******ed for people to say something like hes got hes number. The reason he got hes number is beacuse hes style of fighting and hes high ring IQ.

    Basicly Mayweather is a better version of JMM.

    Hard to compare, the fights are at different weights.

    Floyd haters will point out how Pac destroyed Cotto and knock Floyd.
    Floyd huggers will pointout how Floyd fought him at a weight hes comfterble at and point the reasons to that.

    Boxing fans will just take it for what it is and say styles make fights and not read too much into it.

    Pac looked better vs numerous common opponants, Floyd looked tons better vs Marquez.
    Styles make fights and seeing how Pac and Floyd have completely different styles they will look different vs ceirtan people.

    That said both should retire and stop wasting our time.

    Cotto is elite, sure he will give floyd a tough fight, a newbie Ortiz did it, then Cotto?

    If he gives Floyd a tough fight, then the fans will win. I would think fans want to see competitive fights.
