I don't think age had anything to do with Cotto's victory. It was Cotto's jab. For all taht talk about Cotto's bodywork and left hook, his jab one him the last to fights, and that gives him a chance against Floyd. A pressure fighter with a jab and power is a scary combo. My biggest knock on Cotto has been that I though he was one dimensional, but after seeing him last night, I realize that he has developed into a much more complete fighter.

Floyd will might win, but he will never beat him up. Tony Margarito has a better chance to KO Cotto, cuz of the power and uppercuts.
I'm gonna give you a CC, because you're one of the few around here that I've heard say: "I was picking so-and-so to win, 'cause I thought the other guy was one-dimensional and didn't have the tools. But I realize I was mistaken." Owning up to misconceptions is the mark of a truly knowledgeable boxing fan.
