Miguel Cotto vs Ricardo Mayorga @ 147lbs

Prime Mayorga at 147 gives any1 hell, kid was a monster! Still Cotto would be to skilled for him, Cotto's highly under rated defence would work well against the Wild and crude swings of Mayorga, Miguel is more prone to getting hit straight down the pipe or with uppercuts. Still Ricardo would hav a punchers chance no question

cotto by ko. no contest

Cotto by late stoppage, though Mayorga would definitely have some moments (very) early. After that, Cotto wears him down like he did Zab.

If a sorry ass Ricardo Torres can rock cotto, what do you think Mayorga would do? 2001 Mayorga wins by easy KO. It would look like the andrew lewis fight. 28 KOs in 32 wins.

Cotto destroys Mayorga right now. KO 6

At 147, Mayorga takes those punches pretty easily, and he can give a 154 punch. He gives anyone problems. I'd pick Cotto, but I think he goes down at least once.

A prime Mayorga gives problems to, maybe even beats, Cotto. Mayorga gets destroyed today. I agree!!!

I agree with you that Torres is a better fighter and quicker than Mayo but Mayorga can bang from what I've seen Mayorga hits harder. Torres lands the shots cleaner because hes faster notice I said if Mayorga landed that many flush shots which I dont think he woulkd which is why I picked Cotto to win

I would probably say Cotto but there is a good chance Mayorga starches him. What was the fighters name who kept catching Cotto? was it Torres. Anyway if Mayorga caught him witht that many flush shots he wouldnt have got back up. Torres is a waaaay bigger puncher than Mayorga, and Torres is exceptionally fast as well and has great movement. Torres is elite I say. The guy gave Cotto his hardest fight, best Mighty Mike Arnaoutis and KO'd Kendall Holt.

Trinidad - Never a body puncher in his career, layed Mayorga the fuck out with bodyshots. Cotto - A primary body puncher KOs Mayorga early with a few body shots. To take bodypunch someone must be discpline to take because Bodypunchs take alot of stamina out of you. and it is easy to KO a person who is in fatguie. As for Cotto Tito bodypunch. Tito is one shot more powerful and one most powerful punchers in boxing history so his bodypunch is like 7 Cotto bodypunch :D Mayorga got talents in terms of physical streghth and has potential to be on of the best but really he lacked so many thing compare to the elite.

Mayorga got good chin but his not discpline enough to take many of Cotto's bodyshots. I going with Cotto winning UD or late KO but Mayorga has a puncher chance as well as style wise Brawler > Pressure fighter Trinidad - Never a body puncher in his career, layed Mayorga the fuck out with bodyshots.

A N Y version of mayorga, be it the 160lber, the 154'r OR the prime 147lber get the TREATMENT at the hands of cotto, i'm talking baaaaad.

A prime Mayorga gives problems to, maybe even beats, Cotto. Mayorga gets destroyed today. I agree with this. If Mayorga catches you at 147 with solid punch it's a heavy punch. I've seen Cotto rocked a few times early. If Cotto had a Iron Chin. I would say Cotto.

A prime Mayorga would KO Cotto IMO, he was a monster at 147 and he had an amazing chin. I can see Cotto getting caught and hurt badly by the windmill of haymakers from Mayorga and then getting finished off for good. Miguel Cotto would absolutely destroy the present Mayorga, I think he would KO Mayorga with a body shot in about the 6th round.

A prime Mayorga gives problems to, maybe even beats, Cotto. Mayorga gets destroyed today.

Cotto wins by the worst in ring rape anyone has ever seen. This would look alot like Hatton vs. Castillo.

Who takes it? Based off another thread I made, people are saying at 147lbs, Mayorga has his power. How crazy would a fight between them 2 at 147lbs be? :D :boxing: Easy win for cotto, easy win for any of the top 5 or 6 at 147. mayorga would be a good test for berto, good comeback for zab.
