I think Manny vs Mosely will happen....
Mosely is willing to concead his ass to fight Manny, and mosely most likely will win.
Floyd: most likely will beat Marquez and he will be force to either stay on the side line or fight Cotto, Floyd will try to avoid this fight but he will have to after his sucking ppv Num# Marquez fight.
Cotto vs Floyd will happen.

Gun. . . .that seems like a pretty fair assessment of the fight, if it ever comes about.

Depends on how sharp Floyd is. I wouldnt say speed has been his greatest asset his last few fights. But he does have the skill to block most of Cottos shots and keep him missin while nailing him with counters.

now how do i think a floyd-cotto match would play out. floyd would win easily, he is to smart, to quick, and his accuracy and defense is second to none. cotto would go the twelve, but it would be a 12 round ass whippin, i would say cotto probably wins 3 rounds.

I remember who he's fighting.....Clottey, who's claim to fame is outboxing Tony (not by THAT much), and who the hell hasn't outboxed TONY? If I recall correctly Tony was hurt in that fight too.

I thought Corrales had the style to give Mayweather fits too, but looked what happened !
I think Cotto will actually do better against Floyd, but Floyds speeds right by his ass, and won't allow Cotto to do much damage. I agree though, nutz, it's a fight I'd love to see as well.

I don't think it's a matter of Clottey being able to take the punishment Tony did, I think it will come down to Clottey being able to put forth the offense that Tony did while being clobbered. I don't think he can. That's why I believe Cotto wins on pts easily, and if it gets to outta hand (lack of Clottey landing) the towel will come.
PBF v Cotto has been a dream match of mine for awhile. Why? because I think Cotto has the best style to give PBF at least a good competetive fight and win maybe-not just wild non-effective flurries like DLH did. Cotto IS faster than DLH and I think he has a better all rd arsenal than ODLH did when he fought PBF. Tony derailed this match-up, which I had a bad feeling he would (after watching him smile at Cintron Bombs).
Now, if Mosely somehow gets Paq and beats him, and PBF beats Marq (psh....please!), I think PBF will say fuc* you to Mosely and take the Cotto fight (as long as he beats Clottey). I hope it goes this way..... But I sincerely doubt it- I think Paq beats Mosely.

I think a tournament between Floyd Cotto Mosely and Pacman will be huge for the sport of boxing. Cotto vs Floyd and Pacman vs Mosely with the winners of each bout squaring off for bragging rights they can take to the grave.
Should Mayweather and Manny win it would make their bout that much more epic and truly a fight for the ages. Cotto is definitely a huge test for Floyd and Mosley will be no walk in the park for Pacman. A tourney like this would be my boxing dream come true.

I didn't misinterpret anything. You're dissing Cotto and you don't even see it, but I do.
You're saying he will lose if Floyd is at his best and that he will only win if Floyd is not at his best. That is a diss. Meaning if he managed to pull off the upset, it had nothing to do with what was righ with Cotto but all with Floyd not being on his game.
You've been doing that with all of Cotto's opponents, the ones he beat and the ones he lost to (Margarito bum).
If you're gonna make a pick, don't generalize (Best Floyd beats the best Cotto). Stylistically give your reasons why Floyd will win (e.g. is faster, better defense etc,.) and if you're proven wrong, give credit unstead of coming up with excuses why Cotto won and Floyd didn't.
That's just my opinion. Otherwise we will keep going in circles. This is exactly what's being done to Floyd and his wins.

I'm with the opinion of waiting and seeing if Cotto looks good against Clottey. I would love to see Cotto win and then yea you have to mention him along with Mosley/pacquiao/Mayeather.
If Cotto wins best believe he'll try to make Pacquiao fight Cotto, which would leave Mayweather no option for a big fight except Mosley. Thats why its so imprtant for Arum that cotto beats Clottey. Cotto is his only bargaining chip. If they cant agree with Mayweather on money. Pac can fight Cotto.

Cro, I think you misinterpreted my post. If Cotto became the first to beat Mayweather, he would get full credit from me. Hell, in my mind that would validate all the hype surrounding him his entire career. But, when picking a winner, I don't think it matters how good Cotto looks against Clottey. Because I don't believe Cotto's best is good enough to beat Mayweather's best. I Cotto looks good against Clottey, and Mayweather looks as if he's slipped against Marquez, I would maybe give Cotto a chance of beating him. But if Money looks like the same ole Money, I don't think Cotto has a prayer.

So you openly admit that you would never give Cotto credit for a victory over Floyd and that you're gonna keep shitting on all of his wins (Clottey overrated, Malignaggie no good, Torres no good, Margarito bum etc,.)
Remind me again how your'e no different from the generic Floyd hater that can't ever concede that Floyd did good for once.

In my mind, its not how Cotto looks against Clottey that will affect how I feel about how he would do against Mayweather, its how Money looks against Marquez. 100% of Mayweather outclasses 100% of Cotto anyday, so it really doesn't matter how much Cotto has left.
