Mayweather vs Cotto Confirmed For May 5th at MGM Grand - Boxing News

Who do we think will be the aggressor in this fight?

[0james0]

Not sure on the aggressor, but I think I already know the winner.

Fair play to Floyd, he gets a lot of stick, lots from me too. But he does pick good fights, his last few opponents have all been decent fighters who have the potential to cause a suprise.

I think it'll be an interesting fight to watch for the boxing fan. Its about as interesting a fight as you can get where the winner is obvious (or at least very very likely).

What tactics will each fighter employ?

Is there anyone out there who gives Cotto a shot?

[Manos de Piedra]

It's the best fight out there for Floyd, even though it's a bit late. I don't see Cotto winning this but it'll be good fight. Cotto can box, he's strong and has a good jab but it's not enough to beat Floyd. Mayweather takes a wide UD with a possibility of a late stoppage because of the sharp counter punches.

It's the second best fight out there for Floyd. Sergio was the best. Still, it's not a bad fight at all. Sure, it should have happened three years ago, but better late than never. Is the fight at 154? I imagine this will lead into a Sergio Martinez v. Floyd Mayweather fight next?

I don't give Cotto a shot. I like Floyd in the late rounds (10-12) stoppage by cuts or Floyd UD. Cotto got what he wanted though, which was another big $ fight. He's earned it. He'll face Canelo after Mayweather beats him and he'll retire a very wealthy man.

This is great for boxing and a huge fight between 2 fighters i love to watch. Cotto will have a serious go early but Floyd will tie him in Knots by midway, suss him out and tear his face to shreds .. Cotto's hard as nails so i see Floyd winning late on by stoppage or by a massive points win.

Really looking forward to this one.

Just don't see any way or tactic that make Cotto win this.

WAR COTTO!!! Come on Miguel, take the 0!!!!

I think Cotto will be the aggressor.

[MMASUX]

Cotto will be the aggressor, and Mayweather will use that against him all night long. I think it will be Mayweather 8-4, maybe 9-3.

This is what I think two. Except more towards 8-4 or 7-5 for mayweather. But I wouldnt be surprised if Cotto got the W. I mean he did beat Mosley while he was still good and I'm sure that Mosley would've give Floyd problems and whooped PAC had he fought the way he fought Cotto.

The thing about cotto is that i love his style and boxing skills but his face bleeds easy and he takes alot of damage.
Hopefully his defense will improve in this bout AND his stamina!

Maybe cotto will try something different this time and not be so much of an aggressor like he did with pacman.

The weight is definately in his favor.
Pac must be kicking himself for not stepping up to 150.
Hopefully pac takes on a young hungry bradley.

This is a very good fight especially at 154. A very small complaint...i wish it was 3-4 years ago when both were nearer their primes.

Still an excellent match that beats anything Manny P will do next (and thats coming from a Pac fan).

Cotto has to adopt the Castillio performance if hes going to beat Floyd , patient aggressiveness pushing floyd back using the jab , letting Floyd go back near the ropes then attack. Cotto simply cant stand off Floyd or he gets beat in a wide decision.

Looking forward to this fight already , any early news on their purses for the fight.
