Cotto vs. Floyd Jr. & "Canelo" Alvarez vs. Mosley - Saturday night fight thread

[JT Rock]

I really thought Mosley vs Mayweather was going to be competitive, especially after Shane rocked Floyd in the 1st round, but then for some strange reason Mosley just quit fighting. I never could figure it out, it's like Mosley thought, WTF am I doing, i'm not supposed to win this. <img src="images/smilies/confused.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Confused"

Point is, if Cotto can put some hurt on Floyd right from the get go,
landing powerful left hooks to
Floyd's head and body, I believe
unlike Margarito who had a granite
chin, it could be a game changer. The trick is hitting Floyd, which is not
an easy thing. <br />
<br />
Floyd says: &quot;I want to take it to Cotto&quot; and find out what he's
got, hopefully this will be a big
mistake for him. Cotto has been in
some fucking wars and for the most
part done well, I question whether
Mayweather could survive a
&quot;war&quot; with Cotto and/or if
his chin would hold up for 12 rounds.

Mosely stopped throwing because he didn't like what was coming back, it's easy to ask why he stopped throwing but against a tremendous counterpuncher with great accuracy it has to rattle the game plan quite a bit. If Cotto presses than he leaves himself open. Is he willing throw 1 and take one back?

I don't see Floyd as being a big puncher, i'm not saying he doesn't have some power, but I just don't see him being able to hurt the bigger Cotto the way Pacquiao and Margarito did, if Floyd wins it won't be by KO. I don't know why so many believe that Mayweather wins by KO, this ain't an awestruck Ortiz or a washed up Gatti. Cotto is going to be a live Dog in this fight, will Floyd be able to go 12 hard rounds for the first time in his career?
