    I think Mayorga is becoming underrated in his career legacy simply because people assume all fighters have to be 'textbook' to be successful and legit.
    He can be beat but its a high bar to pass. All I can say is I got all my points on whatever I said.
    Dude, we cool. We just have different point of views. I respect yours. good karma for you...

      Pointless fight.

      Mayorga is a punching bag. We know Cotto can body this cat inside 8-9 rounds.

      Beating Mayorga won't mean ****.

        IMO mayorga depending on his condition, body and weight can KO cotto,
        I will love to see this fight, see i knew mayorga would get in the mix now,
        even margarito vs mayorga would be good

          I agree, plus the press conference would be gold

                Margarito vs. mayorga will be a good consolation fight by the end of 2008.

                  it would be an exciting match up, would get good ppv numbers.. i'd say cotto beats him, tko middle rounds.. right now the only welterweight i think can beat cotto is mayweather, and the same thing the other way around

                    I think Mayorga will stuggle to make weight at 147 and even if he does make it, he hasn't fought at that weight for a while which might make Cotto's body shots that much more devastating.

                      There's just no way Mayorga is going to turn the clock back 5 years after fighting at higher weights and taking big punches. Making 147 sounds very unlikely to me. Maybe he can prove me wrong.

                      I think Marg takes the fight, but if Cintron can keep a level head, and box a little more he should have a good chance. As of right now I think a lot of his problems are mental.
