    On the down side, Cotto is very hittable as you say, and this fight with Mosley should answer what you are asking. Should Cotto beat Mosley convincingly-The sky is the limit for him.


    I would not be disappointed to see a guy like Cotto be "THE MAN" in boxing. I think he would reign with dignity and poise. Boxing needs that!
    i second that.

      You people with the "this fighter would beat floyd cause of the castillo fight"
      Are a bunch of idiots.

      Your memory is so bad that you forgot about the rematch?How about the fact that Mayweather fought castillo with a torn rotator cuff in the first fight.

      People say americans are ****** and you are helping to validate that notion.

        Yeah that would put him up there but those are 2 big ifs. He should be worried about Mosley first cause u know he is gearing to pull an upset.

                If Cotto beat Mosley and Floyd he would be will on his way. He is still very young i think he could but that wil be very difficult.

                  I don't see him undefeated much longer.All the real solid welterweights would beat him in my opinion.Margo,Williams,even Clottey etc.

                  He's been hurt alot in fights,he came back but against guys with no chins themselves.

                    HE'S BEEN HURT BY CORLEY [UNDERATED PUNCHER WHO ROCKED JOY] BY A BIG PUNCHER IN TORRES,AND A GUY WHO HAD POP IN JUDAH.THEIR CHINS ARE DEBATABLE.

                      I like Cotto very well also.I've been following him for a little while now . I'm really curious to see how the ppv goes. I think this could go either way. I just hope he doesnt eat alot of punches from mosely cause that could be painful. He does need to learn how to stop taking so many hits during a fight.
