          What about Lopez with his recent big devastating wins and Tito like charisma plus Cotto the surly warrior is coming a huge loss where some might deem he quit, PR loves a winner after all?

            winky is a very good fighter. better than hopkins imo but again he was a super welterweight fighting at 15-20 lbs. above his natural weight class when he fought bernard?

            tarver is crap. legacy made off of beating one guy. he's like vernon forrest beating shane or carlos baldomir beating zab.

              Its still gonna be Cotto until JuanMa really hits the big time(fight with Vazquez). Once JuanMa is running his division his charisma will make him more popular than Cotto, even if Cotto rebounds strong.

                NO such thing as natural weight class fool. Was Tito a natural WW when he is bloody fighting at MW.

                    Trinidad is. And I've said this before Cotto's loss. Trinidad was just more charismatic than other's. The heart thumping easy smiling and gregarious. Now that doesn't mean he is the best but hard to argue against him being the favorite son.

                    Kind of like Gatti being New Jersey's favorite son (I know he's originally from Canada). There will almost certainly be multiple greater/better boxers that fight out of NJ but Gatti's charisma would make a more beloved NJ fighter a much longer reach and harder to attain.

                      I Think Lopez Will outshine Cotto, he has more charisma and has more of a media appeal..
