Oscar is not the fighter he once was.
One body shot from Hopkins and that was all she wrote.
Cotto who is a pretty good body puncher himself, would go to town on Oscar's soft body.
Little Floyd goes 24 rounds with Oscar.
Cotto takes out Oscar in 7

Good point Danny G. Or maybe ODLH will get in the ring with a guy that was made for his style and hits Cotto easily with straights, hooks, jabs, etc. and rocks Cotto just like others already have. Straight-forward boxers have not been a threat for ODLH. Many people wish ODLH the worse, well, get him in the ring with Cotto! They'll be happy to see him loose or they'll end up hating ODLH more when he beats Cotto. Can go either way.
I think if Oscar decides to fight Cotto it will be his last fight.....whether he wants it to be or not.
If Floyd's hook hurt ODH then Cotto is going to put him to sleep. And let's not underestimate Cotto's hand speed and timing...he's a damn good fighter and he can box when need be
Did Floyd hurt ODLH with a body punch? I missed it. There's one punch that almost every video on YouTube keeps repeating when the round finished and Oscar was backing up and got a straight right. Good punch, good timing (right when the round finished) but its not like "Oh my gawd, ODLH can't continue because of that punch".
I don't remember seeing both of them hurt. Just fighting cautious.
Oscar was attacking and Floyd threw a short hook to the chin and ODH's legs gave a bit....if Floyd makes him do that then Cotto is going to have a field day with him.

Did Floyd try to throw body shots?
When is the last time you saw Floyd take some one out with a body shot?
1822?
Cotto would take Olden Boy to school and make him quit on his stool.
There are plenty of fighters who Floyd could not hurt or take out and yet Cotto came by and destroyed the SHIET out of them.
Case in point?
Victoriano Sosa
DeMarcus Corley
Zab Judah (Cotto finished him, Floyd didn't)
Floyd at the time claimed Justin Juuko was the toughest fighter he had faced and yet Cotto took him out in 5. Floyd took 9
The record has shown that any fighter PBF can beat, Miguel can beat them better and sooner.
Oscar would be no different. Cotto at this point would man handle the old man and yet Floyd will dance for 12.

...you forgot to add "...and BARELY WIN"
Oh right I forgot it was a split decision and that was no beating.
Floyd has been given two gifts in his career.
Castillo 1
ODLH 1
It has always been said by the purist if not the purist at heart, that you have to BEAT the champion and Floyd did not beat anything but his puny little chest before and after the fight but during the fight he beat nothing.
I know Cotto can take the Olden one out![]()
Hey Chino, i readed some of your thread and i see that you are SPECULATING too much my friend ..... i agree that ODLH is good with the Straight-Forward boxers , but ODLH isnt the same like before , now he is out of his Prime and he changed his style too , if you think that he can fight the same way, when he fought to Trinidad ; believe me that he cant make it , that is why he changed his style with less movement , With less movement do you think that he can hold of Cotto body punches? Dont think that ODLH is the same like before , he get yet a good condition but with Cotto he has less probability for win , im sure about that......

Every time you see Miguel Cotto cut or bruised, look across the ring.
Each time the other guy has looked three times as bad.

True Macho, Cotto is a warrior.
