Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
Im sure alot of people are excited for this fight like I am. I know everyone says Mayweather will win and chances are he will, but I'm one that believes Cotto still has a shot. So he shouldn't be counted completely out. Either way I want to see what you guys think.
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
Cotto's chances of victory are slim to none. He'll get punked and schooled just like Henry Bruseles but to a lesser extent. Floyd is going to disect him round by round and get em outa there late..
Cotto beat a handicap in Margo but let's not get too excited cuz him VS Floyd aint really a fight. haha
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
Mayweather UD 9 rounds to 3. I'll be rooting for Cotto, but ...
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
The problem for Cotto is he doens't know how to fight off the back foot at all. Manny caught him repeatedly by moving backwards then coming in quickly and Cotto can't get out of the way. Mayweather on the oher hand is far more mobile, and when he moves out of Cotto range he will counter over count, around, underneath and Cotto won't be able to react quick enough. To make matters worse, Cotto doesn't actually have a huge arsenal of punches that will really hurt Mayweather, it's basically his left hook to the head or body, and like Oscar we might never see him land a solid one. I think mayweather has also stiffened up his jab a lot since then, and he has better learned how to stand his ground and comit more to the right hand. All in all Cotto could present some interesting challenges, but he will be a little too slow, and just technically outmatched like everyone else because they look for the wrong stuff to beat maweather.

Im completely counting Cotto out and not excited by this fight. The guy has such a small chance I cant even begin to think of him winning. His only chance is if he some how gets Mayweather with the best haymaker of the year and hope to god the ref counts fast. I dont see cotto with any chance of winning on points. The speed, technique and power are all on Mayweathers side. He is in a different league.
Watch a recent Vlad Klitchko fight, very good comparison on how competetive this fight will be.
My guess is an easy UD if Mayweather uses his normal style. And a KO if he fights him like he fought Ortiz.
But I will stick with a wide UD with Mayweather winning by about 6 rounds.
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
I'm actually pretty excited over this fight and give Cotto every chance in the world early doors.. the first few rounds could be classic.
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
Floyd will be too good for Cotto and I see him winning 3 rounds max. Floyd by wide UD.
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
I see the fight going a similar way to PBF v Hatton, competitive for the first 6 rds, then PBF pulling away in the second half of the fight.
Cotto's gameplan is key.
Coming up with an effective gameplan and executing it against PBF is not going to be easy, but hopefully he will.
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
I think Cotto needs to land his low blows early, work his way up to the body in the mid rounds and then close with the head.
In all honesty I think Cotto will start strong maybe even scoring a KD in the 2nd or 3rd round, after that Mayweather should dominate winning the fight 9-3
Cotto should also look at getting some judges from Texas.

So says a bitter Margo fan... LOL. Surprised you didn't predict a 1st round KO.
I think Floyd's rightfully favored in this fight. But unlike bitter Margo fans and Cotto haters, I feel it'll be a competitive, entertaining fight. Cotto has to fight the fight of his life, no doubt about it. But "punked and schooled"? And comparing Cotto to Henry Bruseles? What a load of shit. Oh well, expected nothing else. Time for the other groupies to chime in.
;D

You dont have to be a Margarito fan to know that he was handicapped. If he wasnt Cotto wouldnt have faught him again. He did wait for Margarito's career to be completely destroyed and for him to look completely pathetic in his fights to fight im again. And Cotto will be punked and schooled against Mayweather. He wont be able to make it into a fight and he doesnt have the speed or the stamina to keep up with Mayweather.
Re: Mayweather Vs Cotto Predictions
This is the fight of the year for me. I know Floyd will win this 8 rounds 4 or even 9-3 but if Cotto can use his experience, dictate the tempo of the fight with his new found composure, I think he could possibly win another few more rounds at this weight, which makes it a pretty close and very interesting fight.
