    I've heard a lot of people say that he CAN and WILL beat Floyd, but why? What would he do differently that no one else has done?

    Cotto will try and he will fail like everyone else. PBF is just too good and at the top of his game right now.

    If Floyd takes two years off like he says he will, then his speed and reflexes might not be there. He won't be as sharp, and he'll be pushing 33. I could see Cotto beating this version of Mayweather.

    because cotto is the ultimate, he is the most brutal and vicious and most ruthless champion there has ever been there is no one that can stop him, his style is impetuous, his defense is impregnable and he is just ferocious he just wants to eat floyds children, praise be to allah!

    Because he's a top fighter in his prime and we are all well aware Hatton/Zab/DLH/Baldo/Gatti were not.

    Fair enough.

    However, does he have the means to beat Floyd?

    The best part about that rant is that right afterwards, they asked Tyson when he was going to fight Lewis and he said he wasn't ready and needed a couple of more fights.

    cotto is the best welterweight other then floyd inthe world and for exactly that reason we r not gona see this fight! floyd does not have any interest at all in fighting cotto or margarito or williams, which just happened to be( major coincidence ) the only fighters in the world that might b able to beat him. floyd is, was, and always will b a low risk high reward fighter. he wants the most mula with the least possible risk.

    Cotto can't beat Mayweather. His agressive style won't be so effective, his speed won't be enough, his defense will show weaknesses and his chin will let him down once again.

    :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

    Hatton was not a top fighter in his prime?

    Top10 P4P
    Undefeated
    Had only been knocked down once
    28 or 29 years old
    The night of the fight he weighed the same that he does in his fights at 140.

    :deal :deal :deal :deal

    Case closed, no debate.
