Floyd gets more props from the general public if he beats Oscar twice but not boxing fanatics like us.

If Floyd beat Cotto...

I'm a big Cotto fan, and I would think what I already think...that Floyd is one of the greatest of all time. That's the main reason I want them to fight, because Floyd is so good, but no way you can count Cotto out 100%. Would be a great fight.

I look at the fight like this. Its not "if" PBF beats Cotto. Its "when" PBF beats Cotto. I have no doubt in my mind that PBF can and will beat Cotto when they fight. I was 100% sure about the Hatton fight and I am 100% sure PBF will beat Cotto.

C'mon... I like Floyd. This is ridiculous. Let's get him to fight Cotto... then Williams... then Margarito. I have no doubt that he can win these fights... but I want to see greatness, not guess at it. I think everyone feels the same way. It's disappointing following Floyd right now.

1) some of the true cotto fans will gracefully accept defeat, some will come up with excuses.
2) floyd haters will just start talking down everything cotto has done.
You will read someone saying that all in all Cotto was not that much of a body puncher, not so good at cutting off the ring, and his jab wasnt all that good to begin with.
I will respect the Cotto fans and laugh at the haters.

Originally posted by JoeR View PostFine, point for you. But when the best at 140 is Hatton, Malignaggi, Torres or Witter you aint saying much. But the Hatton win was indeed impressive; but like I said in my post, no one really tought Hatton had a chance. Cotto does.
Malignaggi, Torres and Witter are way below, they dont have star power and are also not remotely as good. Hatton is a ring magazine champion,and is one of the few ring magazine champion, who beat someone relevant to be where he is (Zoo). So saying Hatton is saying much.
A lot of people gave a hell of a chance to Hatton (including me), as he had most of what you want stylewise to give all sort of troubles to Mayweather. Too bad he was not 10-15 pounds heavier than Mayweather like Cotto is (only like 5 pounds). Too bad Mayweather never got hit with a left hook to the body all night. Too bad Mayweather turned out to be as good as fighting a dirty fight on the inside and in the clinches as he is boxing "pretty" on the outside, something which not even his most rabid fans imagined.
