      Mayweather liked Cotto's responses to all Max's questions. He never tried to sell Floyd short. He respected the greatness of his opponent. Not all of Mayweather's opponents do that.

      Floyd is selling a fight here. I have no doubt that he likes and respects Cotto. The fact of the matter is that if Floyd was put on the defensive, he would bring up all of Miguel faults and losses. We all knew Floyd would beat him. When that happens, Floyd goes into his "this guy is great, tune in" routine. He did the same shit with McGregor. I love Cotto in the ring. He is very talented and great to watch. He is a nice guy too. I think he knew the ppv numbers would be ok because of the Puerto Ricans supporting their guy. I'm glad it went this way tbh, I wouldnt want to see him trashing Miguel.

    @shanehale5215 3 роки тому +14

    Everyone in the comments are surprised that he respects Cotto. The reason why is because Cotto treats him with respect. Unlike other opponents, Floyd disrespects fighters who never show him any. Respect is something earned. Mayweather disrespected everyone in the ring who never respected him in the first place.

  • @luckylenny2506

    Study closely, kiddos, this highest expression of the "Sweet Science." For Floyd, like Ali, tailors his relation to the opponent. Namely, the more dangerous the opponent, the more humble and reverent. Cotto, Mayweather knew, would be one of his toughest opponents. Hence Mayweather's nonchalant approach, in addition to his constant allusions to "winning" in his bets.
    Mayweather is attempting to plant a seed of superiority in Cotta's head.

Great mind games not on Max & Cotto, but on the fans 2 get those extra ticket sales & PPV money. Floyd may come off as someone who's not very bright by the way he talks, but he's way smarter than most people give him credit for. You don't accrue a net worth $500 plus million by being dumb.

    The only guy to burst Floyd face is cotto and maidana at the end of the 3rd round in the second fight right on the bell,that let's you know how good his defence was.prime whittager was a special defensive boxer also.This was the best and most competitive fight I saw mayweather in but I only started to watch mayweather when he fought judah.

    • @MrMarco855
      @MrMarco855 6 років тому +10

      I can't think of anyone that Mayweather showed respect to,.... what are you talking about? Floyd disrespected Ortiz, Guerrero, Shane Mosley, Pacquiao, Oscar dela Hoya, Maidana and Marquez,...those are the opponents I can remember. Now, you name the guys that he was respectful of? If you say Cotto,....you're a fool. Anyone can see why he pretended to give Cotto a little respect. Floyd's main enemy is Pacquiao, and he used every opportunity to trash Pacquiao. Twice in this episode he mentioned Pacquioa, berated and lying about him. Who else does that; talks about another guy that isn't involved in this? In order to get people to support his attack on Pacquiao, Floyd treated Cotto decent, trying to fake being a nice guy while tearing Pacquiao apart. He knew he would be getting support in this situation, because he knew Cotto fans would be watching, and he knew he could accuse Pacquiao of asking Cotto for a catch weight,....in effect gaining support from Cotto fans since Pacquiao had beaten Cotto.
      Cotto didn't bring it up, what business is it of Floyd's and why would Floyd ever defend another guy, especially the guy he's fighting next? Only one reason, he hates Pacquiao more then all other fighters combined, so giving Cotto credit is no problem for Floyd if he can talk shit about Pacquiao. For the record, and this is the truth, not bullshit like Floyd always brings; Miguel Cotto fought Joshua Clottey in his fight previous to the Pacquiao fight. Cotto weighed in at 146 to fight Clottey, about 5 months before fighting Pacquiao. That means that Cotto had no problem making the weight at 147, and it means that Cotto preferred coming in one pound under the limit for Clottey. 5 months later, Pacquioa asked for a 145 weight limit, Cotto weighed in at 145, and as always, he had 24 hours to add weight, just as in every fight. Floyd chose to mention Pacquiao's name regarding his fight with Cotto that was more then a year prior, when it had nothing to do with Floyd at all, and when Cotto weighed in 1 pound less then he had in his previous fight with Clottey.
      Doesn't it seem strange that Floyd thought that it was important enough to mention this when it involved a single pound in a fight that didn't involve himself, and that Cotto himself didn't complain about? If Floyd told the story honestly, he would have said this; I don't think it was fair that Cotto had to fight Pacquiao one pound less then he fought Clottey, which is the truth and anyone can verify. If Floyd told it that way,.... people would have wondered why Floyd is bringing up something that has nothing to do with this fight, nothing to do with Floyd, and a one pound difference is not a big deal to begin with. But Floyd didn't tell it like that. First he got Cotto fans on his side by defending Cotto, saying that in his opinion Cotto had no losses. Of course he's sucking up to Cotto fans, and some of the responses here show that some took the bait. Then he made it sound like the catch weight was a big deal, but he never once mentioned that it amounted to one single pound.
      Did Floyd ever go on another show, one that had nothing to do with Juan Marquez, and admit publicly that he chose to fight a guy that had never fought above super featherweight, 130, in his entire career? Did Floyd tell everyone that despite asking Marquez to go up 3 full weight classes to 147, that Floyd didn't make the 147 limit, so they had to write a new contract with a 150 pond limit? Did you hear Floyd mention those things about himself, that are the absolute proof? Did he mention that he made Hatton fight at 147, not his best weight (which was 140 ), where Hatton was unbeaten? Did he mention that Pacquiao agreed to fight Hatton at 140, Ricky's best chance to win? I don't think Floyd has ever said anything about himself that is the truth, because everything he does is dishonest, cheating, unsportsmanlike and cowardly.
      Cowardly, such as forcing Maidana to wear gloves that he didn't want to wear, that he had never worn previously, and that were known to soften the punches? Did he mention that he paid Maidana 1.5 million$ to wear those soft gloves? Who would disagree that Floyd made the most cowardly request of an opponent in the history of boxing? Floyd was afraid to let Maidana pound on him like Maidana did to Broner. Floyd was scared of Maidana,.....there's no other way to look at it. You'll never hear Floyd mention it, yet he went out of his way to make an issue of a one pound concession made by Cotto against Pacquiao, when it was none of his business. The fact is that Cotto was a bigger man then Pacquiao, and everyone knew it. Floyd has no excuses, he was a bigger man then Madaina if the truth be known, Maidana was fighting at 140 a couple of fights before, so was Guerrero, who fought at 135 not long before he fought Floyd, Hatton was a 140 fighter his entire career save for one fight, so Floyd has a record of fighting smaller guys, the most embarrassing was a 17 pound smaller guy in Marquez. Now Floyd let's hear some more bullshit,.........like being caught cheating 3 times with drugs for example.
