IMO, Floyd needs to fight both of these guys, because they're knocking out guys he couldn't. I'm wondering if Floyd could really take the punishment both of them can dish out.

Bottom line, Ricky deserves his plaudits, and if you weren't impressed by what happened on Saturday night then you should certainly be questioning your knowledge of boxing.
I hope your kidding me. If you think CAStillo was anything compared to the guy who fought Mayweather 4-5 years ago your fooling yourself. The reason why people aren't "hating" on Cotto is because he didn't have those two horrid performances against Urango and Collazo. I think Hatton could beat anyone at 147 besides PBF, or he has the potential to, but I doubt he will be able to. He has the speed, but he doesn't fight the right way.
I'm a big Cotto fan, but he was nothing against Urkal, rocked big time by Torres and had problems with Corley. Judah is hardly at his best right now...these are pretty much the same reasons people hate on Hatton.

Don't get me wrong, I love Cotto. My opinion is that every fighter is entitled to have a bad day at the office.
That judah was not at his best ,lmao ,man what fight did you watch iam starting to think most of the guys get drunk before watching a fight ,even the announcers where like win or lose judah was at his best ,now if you ask me if judah will be the same heck NO ,but he was at his best and cotto is getting better and stronger ,remeber at the 140 weight it was hard for him and he was too dehydrated at the 147 non of this is a problem which is why he has absorb the power from his last 2 opponents ,and one thing cotto has is smarts ,he thinks before he leaps hatton holds before he throws ,i go for the thinker anyone can punch all night without knowing what to do.
