You say styles make fights, but I dont even know if you understand what that means because pound 4 pound Marquez's skill is superior to Cottos. I can just imagine Marquez's beutiful uppercuts getting in on Cottos face sooo good. Or are you trying to say that weights make fights? Because in that case, yes, Cotto is too big and strong for Marquez.
I'm not convinced. Marquez did something Cotto could not do in his better days. I'd say we would probably be surprised at actual strength and explosive power between the two. Could be a wash. Marquez is a true blood and guts warrior, Cotto just hasn't been as devoted to the sport as Marquez. Everyone knows he used to be a heavy drinker (Doble Seis fiend).
Cotto might have the edge, but Marquez is far more resilient.

I'm interested in this fight more than a Cotto VS Canelo at 154
Cotto needs to get back down to 147 he doesnt belong in 154.
I think it would be a nice little scrap
If Marquez can knock out pac then he can knock out Cotto. Not saying he will though. Cotto also is vunerable to uppercuts which Marquez is great at. Would be an interesting fight.
This.
I love both of these fighters but Marquez is superior, by far.
Be reasonable. Cotto is struggling to stay relevant at 32-33 and Marquez just iced the Pacman.
marquez is a 12 round fighter, and a marksman. Cotto might bully him at first, but I see him getting hurt from counters and getting stopped late as he gasses if he doesnt run from a guy half his size which would be sad
Styles make fights, Cotto would dominate every round against Marquez same way as MayweatherYou have a right to your opinion and others have a right to their opinion. If they ever fight then you know the answer. I have always thought Marquez was a better figher than Cotto. Mayweather beating a Marquez that was poorly prepared has nothing to do with Cotto winning every round from Marquez. Cotto is nothing like Mayweather and he also lost almost every round to Mayweather and just got beat again by Trout. By the way Marquez won a round or two on all three judges cards against Mayweather.Marquez is a little guy and he is not going to fight Cotto at 150 so no use worrying about a fight that won't happen. But if they do fight I think Marquez knocks him out. The fact that Marquez KOed Pacquiao and Pacquiao KOed Cotto has something to do with my pick triangle or not.
If Marquez can knock out pac then he can knock out Cotto. Not saying he will though. Cotto also is vunerable to uppercuts which Marquez is great at. Would be an interesting fight.
What makes Trout a friday night fighter? His undefeated record? His belt?
Marquez deserves all the props from this KO. I'm not going to get on him for that. I personally think Cotto matches up really well with Marquez, but considering both of their last fight's I don't expect anybody to really favor Cotto.
People just don't take into account how well JMM knows Manny's style. Marquez has struggled against much lesser fighters than Cotto.
I agree and the "Marquez beats everybody now" threads are starting to get silly. Next it will be Marquez beats Martinez.

...
Did you see his fight with Canelo´s brother?, even shot Cotto was rocking him badly in a way only bums get rocked.
Because Cotto lost to a friday night fighter in Austin Trout.
JMM is a master technician who will pick Cotto apart? (this Cotto anyways)

Cotto is a f*cking bum who has proven this over and over again. All the belts he's ever had were handed to him on a silver platter. Please don't talk about this bum when talking about Marquez. P4P, Marquez would rape and sodomize him. The only thing is that Cotto & Myweather are naturally bigger fighters. Pacquiao & Marquez have no business above 140, and even that is pushing it. However, that didn't stop Pacquiao from beating up on all these bums at 140-147, which included the rape & sodomy of Cotto.
He hurt pac because pac went back in a straight line not an angle, also pac only covered the center of his face susceptable to hooks, when has cotto ever been in that situation, Cotto would move and be on the back foot with a stiff jab, Marquez doesnt have the speed of trout he would get dominated
Cotto on the back foot against JMM? What are you smoking?
