I think the Vargas from the first Mosley fight would have beaten Cotto as well. Kirkland may have before he went to jail and Dzinziruk and Williams would too. Cotto only shines against smaller guys like Judah and Pac (who might even still beat him regardless). Cotto will eventually have to move up to 154 though. He'll get beat when he does.
Actually I mentioned 147 because Cotto @ 154 has NO CHANCE.. Too short and stubby for 154.. Twatboy
OK, Vargas at 154... How would Vargas do that? Panocha face
Vargas was still slow and easy to hit. He survived on his underrated boxing skill and toughness. Still you could see the right hand coming at that point. It would be tough, and Cotto might be too small, but skill wise, Miguel would tag him pretty easily all night I think.
Margarito walked through everything, Vargas won't. Clottey was hard to hit, Vargas isn't.
Cotto's defense is't exactly good either though.
The first Vargas still has it. Ffs guys, Cotto struggles with big WW's which are as heavy as him come fight night. How about a HUGE 154 pounder? The Vargas of the mosley rematch was done though.

I though I'd give Cotto a chance you know... Now a dumb thread would be "Cotto vs the Vargas that fought Tito or Oscar" dummy.

Vargas should come back against Cotto's carcass after Pac gets done with him. Cotto would have to move up though. And Cotto is like Margarito in not being able to compete at higher weights.
This thread is dumb
Vargas that fought Tito and Oscar > Any Cotto

Vargas..
Cotto isn't a Junior Middleweight..and isn't experienced up there yet..Vargas fought at Jr Middleweight for the most of his career..and has fought as high as Middleweight..
Cotto would be outgunned and outsized by ALOT!..
I still think Cotto beats both versions even at 154. Vargas was pretty slow at that point. You could see his right hand coming, and he wasn't as resiliant either.
