    Could Cotto cut it at 154lb?

    Could Miguel Cotto, given his short stocky frame be as effective as he is at WW if he had to move up a division to 154?

    Also how much more if any, divisions do u feel Floyd Mayweather could win a World title in?

    I was thinking about Cotto vs Forrest actually. If Cotto doesn't get Floyd by the end of this year or mid next year, why not move up and fight Forrest?

      I think Cotto would fair well at 154 but I think Forrest with his size and reach advantage would handle him over 12 rounds. Anyone else I would take Cotto.

      Same goes for Floyd. He could win a title at 154, I just don't think he could beat Vernon.

            He could win one at 154, just depends on who he fought.

                it's too early now but i could see him making good things. i would love to see cotto-forrest, i would also love to see cotto-kirkland. especially if it will be a year or too before cotto moves up, hopefully by then kirkland would hold at least a piece of one of the titles.

                2 fighters that dont bull**** in the ring. these are usually the fights that end up being one for the year.

                    too much of a size advantage and power for Cotto?
