Mayweather vs Cotto

[Hughesd]

Just want to throw this out here to the regulars. If they were ever to fight who would come out on top ? I just want to gauge the general opinion from fight fans. Thanks.

I think Mayweather would win a close points decision, don't think it will
ever happen though

[Markusdarkus]

I think Floyd would win a ud on his bike.

But it would be a great fight.

Im just thinking if any other fighter had avoided the best 3 fighters of his era would he be rememberd favourably? i mean Floyd didnt fight Mosley, Cotto or Margarito.

Just thought id throw that out.

Cotto TKO9
Cotto would pressure PBF all night long and break him down. Body punching would do the job. It is pretty obvious Floyd is/was scared of him anyway.

[Wayne]

Pretty obvious if you knee-jerk react to anything that comes along. Notice how you heard nothing out of Cotto's mouth after Mayweather DESTROYED Gatti. Cotto was in attendance at ringside. Why do you assume PBF was afraid instead of the other way around? I don't think there's enough information to make a conclusion either way.

You are so ridiculous! So your saying that those three fighters are better than DLH Cotto gets a lucky decision over mosley then loses to margarito and hes an alltime great? im not bashing on him im just saying lets see what he does before we him a best fighter of any era. Margarito is definately good but before we call him great lets see him a little bit more. He has wins against cotto and cintron but also a loss against williams. Shane is definately good but i havent heard stories of floyd "avoiding" him.

If a past his prime De La Hoya can push Mayweather to a split decicion, and bare in mind ODLH is not a natural pressure fighter.

Then you got to say a clever pressure fighter who can fight to a game plan would stand a chance.


This is a fight where I think Mayweather would have to stand his ground and fight or get beaten.

PITY IT IS NOT LIKLEY TO HAPPEN

Please I don't know how anyone could of scored that fight for ODLH, PBF was nowhere near his limit. That was an example of an in the pocket judge IMO. I also don't believe PBF would have to alter his plan in any way to fight Cotto, as PBF's style works best against pressure fighters. As a matter of fact he has fought more pressure fighters than anyone I can think of in recent memory.

Anyone who thought Oscar deserved a split decision is a retard, I am not kidding right now. Oscar lost by AT LEAST 4 rounds. Mayweather outsped him, out boxed him, even outfought Oscar down the stretch. Oscar wasn't pressuring the whole fight, there were plenty of times Mayweather stood right in front of the much larger Oscar and made Oscar miss while landing his own shots.

Keep in mind Oscar is a better boxer, faster, stronger chin, and hits harder then Cotto. Cotto does pressure better, he's more accurate, and he is better against speed, but he is outmatched against Floyd, a guy he wouldn't hurt, wouldn't outbox, wouldn't beat on the inside.

i chose cotto cause now i hate mayweather...lol

but its never going to happen he gave up so much money with oscar


and hes very busy with his gangster celeb life right now...LOL

Floyd would defeat all three, Mosley, Cotto, and Margarito.

Might even stop Cotto.

He needs to fight Margarito, thats what Floyd needs to do. IF Cotto had won, then I would say he needs to fight Cotto.

Firstly the Oscar that fought Floyd was a 6rd slow version of the guy Mosley fought. And yes Cotto at this stage is a better fighter than Oscar and so is Margarito.

Mosley has aged much better than Oscar also, your points are weak point is Floyd didnt fight them for one reason or the other.

How the hell is Margarito anywhere near the best fighter of his era? He hasn't even been in the top 10 p4p until recently. Also a younger MOsley was exceptionally deserving to fight anyone, but what Mosley done since his "comeback" to welterweight, Sorry but beating Collazo doesn't mean you deserve a shot at the title.

Cotto is the only won that deserved and still deserves a shot, but he wouldn't beat Mayweather.

Taeth ,my man.I have to ask...Does Margarito Deserve a shot.Heard he had a decent showing last time out vs. that very same Cotto? Maybe Mayweather will find his desire yet again and decide to return ya know... grace us with his presence?
