    Cotto by far.

    Cotto has beaten Judah and Mosley without concrete hand wraps. Tito got owned by de la Hoya, Hopkins and Winky.

        Tito would have Ko'd Cotto at 147.

        Trinidad was a huge welter, his power would catch up to Cotto. Miguel isnt a skilled boxer like Delahoya or Hopkins who can outbox Trinidad and not engage with him over a long fight.

        Cotto's style is a come forward preasure style that would cause Trinidad problems early, maybe even drop him. Eventually The power of Tito would crack Cotto's not so concrete chin.

            Tito in his prime would've knocked Cotto out. Cotto would present some problems and I wouldn't be surprised either if he got knocked down, but Tito would get back up and KO Cotto.

              Trinidad KO's Cotto IMO. Too much power at that weight.

                **** prime this & prime that. I would take Tito over Cotto right now if they decided to meet at a catch weight.

                  Yeah no kidding.

                  Prime Trinidad at 147 would take out Cotto via KO. Tito has all the advantages over Cotto.

                    I don't see anyone beating Trinidad coming forwards at 147. Too much power and he is quite tall too, it's like Foreman at HW. One left hook ends the night for most.

                    I think Cotto is the better all-around fighter, he doesn't get as confused as Tito does when someone is trying to outbox him.
