Speed - Mayweather>Cotto - Mayweather is P4P the fastest all around fighter, in reflexes, foot speed, and hand speed (second to Judah only in hands).
I agree about Floyd but I think Jones has the fastest hands today.

I think they're about even in the midsection department. Cotto seemed to have been hurt by one of Mosley's bodyshots.

Floyd is probably the best defensive fighter ever. Even Whitaker and Pep got hit more than him.

Mayweather' bodypunching is underated as he can go to the body when he knos he's gonna need to, but he mostly uses it to get fighters to lower their guard.
Floyd is a great bodypuncher too. He has stopped some guys with bodyshots but he doesn't focus on the body as much as Cotto does.

I'd like to add :

Combinations - Cotto>Mayweather

Single shots - Mayweather>Cotto

Accuracy - Mayweather>Cotto

Timing - Mayweather = Cotto
