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

[ICB]

I have a question were any of the under cards great fights?

I havent watched,until 15 miniutes ago, been out . I want to know if I be wasting my time or not, thanks.

I didn't see them because i was asleep, but i see the last 2 rounds of Alvarez vs Mosley, looked like a pretty good fight and apparently it was quite competitive.

Mosley got his ass kicked. It was hard to watch.

Now I know 100% for sure, that the Pacman would whupp Mayweather's ass.



Great fight btw.

Pacquiao won't be as competitive as Cotto.

Agreed. Pac makes far too many mistakes.

Exactly. Pac wouldnt ever of stood and delivered like that. He would get caught moving around erratically by a gun.

Cotto fought bravely.

That is such a lame analysis. I believe that Mayweather hadn't stepped up and fought Pacquiao earlier because Pacquiao used to be less predictable. Every fighter says nearly the same think that the angles is what troubled them. Pacquiao is a southpaw not the same as Cotto so you can't really apply because "Pacquiao is less technically sound he's a less effective than Cotto against a pure boxer like Mayweather". In fact, because Pacquiao's fighting technique not traditional it makes him more difficult to fight.

Really ? considering how ordinary Pacquiao looked vs a blown up JMM ? Mayweather to me still looked very sharp despite being in a tough fight.

[DavilaJones]

I think the biggest mental difference between Cotto and Mayweather is that Mayweather changes his style round by round, a la Hopkins. Ward and Bradley do this as well to various degrees.

[Kirkland Laing]

I think the people thinking Cotto won or it was close must have been watching on dodgy streams. Anybody want to speculate why Floyd spent so much time on the ropes? Becasue his legs have gone or just to show everybody how good he is?

Yeah, I could whoop his ass too ,but you;ll never find out for sure, cause I aint going to call out or face Floyd either.

[JT Rock]

You guys are trying to compare a guy who at times fights erratic and without a superior defense (PAC) to Cotto who fights very measured and has a really good defense.

Also you must have forgot Floyd moved up and fought a full fledged Cotto not a freeze dried one 10+ pounds lighter like PAC starved him too

I didn't exactly want Cotto to win but I found myself being disappointed by Cotto's efforts AFTER his best round of the fight (and more importantly, the round that he did almost everything I said he should ).

And where was the southpaw Cotto at his right hand connection rate was poor as fuck but you could see he wanted it to be a big part of his arsenal... Just turn your feet around ffs!

He was doing well in the orthodox stance, he did not get hit that much with Floyd's right hand, going southpaw may have confused him more that Floyd. Cotto jab was working and left hooks, no need to change stance.

Well, the good news to me out of all of this is that my casual boxing friends enjoyed every fight on that card except for Forbes/Vargas. Which means they are more inclined to watch again.
