I think the real question is actually, does the fight happen with Laurence Cole as the ref and does he allow Broner to use all the same illegal and dirty tactics he used against Maidana. If so, then the result will be the same because Broner will tie, elbow, clinch, and hump his way to survival, but if the fight is fought clean and fair, Cotto destroys him and knocks him out with no problem.
AB gets brutally monkey raped, and KTFO <3rd. Cotto @140 was a monster he would walk AB down and just plain and simple KO him.
At 147 Cotto would roll over him, and destroys him.
The Cotto that fought Floyd or Rodriguez beats Broner with his own comb, hits him so hard with a left that when Broner wakes up starts speaking Spanish fluently!
140 Cotto stops 147 broner. Any version of cotto ,big or small.
Broner is flat footed and likes to fight. He likes to wak his man down. That's all he knows how to do.
To be fair to AB, that version was a 154lber.
Does any version of Cotto beat Broner?
i came in here to post that ANY version of Cotto, not just the one that fought Floyd not only beats Broner, but KO's him...
He's getting stopped. I think it would be worse than last nights fight by far. Cotto is very intelligent and skilled. His hook would have flattened Broner repeatedly. Not taking anything away from Chino though. That was a terrific performance.
