    STYLES MAKE FIGHTS, de la hoya might very well stop cotto. DE LA HOYA destroys pressure style fighters.

    ALTHOUGH he's never faced a fighter as tencaious as cotto

      Oscar should not be allowed to screw up boxing, I think Cotto should fight the winner of Mayweather/Hatton next, that should be the next big fight in the welterweight division, not Oscar who already lost his last fight to Mayweather.

      Both Mayweather and Hatton are undefeated, so when the winner fights Cotto it will be 2 prime undefeated fighters all over again, that's what boxing needs, not Oscar.
      I agree, Oscar has lost 3 of his last 5, he should just stick to promoting.

          If Cotto beat Mosley I don't know if Oscar could handle Cotto. Oscar's stamina isn't as good as Mosley's IMO. I don't think anyone at 147 is going to beat Cotto in a war. Oscar would have to outsmart him and beat him technically. Maybe Oscar could lure Cotto up to 154.

                Cotto Would Be Running From Oscar The Whole Fight. Oscar Would See The Trinidad In Cotto And Just Destroy Him.

                  Oscar was asked straight after the Cotto Mosley fight if he would fight him and he said "NO". I heard this on the Top Rank Coverage.

                    DLH was on his bike after the 8th against Tito. So does that mean they would be running away from each other?

                      I think this fight may very well happen. It isn't a bad thing either because it gives Cotto a huge payday; and if he wins, another big name under his belt. Plus if Cotto were to beat Oscar, I think it would be by TKO.
                      Likewise though, I think Oscar would have a great opportunity to win as well. Oscar does do well against pressure fighters. It would be a battle of left hooks.
