    What up Horus?

    question:
    1. What did Cotto improved?

    1. Its obvious that he is stronger and more comfortable at 147, first off. Second, since that Mayweather challenge at 140 he most likely matured and grew more confident. Mental improvement is equally if not more so important than the physical aspect.

    2. Why is he a underdog against Pacquiao?
I have Pac to beat Cotto when they fight, but I believe Manny is the favorite due to overwhelming sentiment and the brutality in which he disposed of his last 3 opponents. I don't know what the odds are at right now, but I'll bet my last dollar that if Cotto is more than a 3 to 1 underdog come the day of the fight, a ton of late money will come in on him.

This fight should have and should happen for the fans. Fighter shouldn't skip fights because they think they're better. Fight and prove it.

      Ahhh, ok, I get it! so you're saying Floyd shouldn't even have to fight Cotto because Miguel has taken on the tougher comp in the same weight class but has taken some punishment. Is that it?

        2 years ago he would have turned Floyd inside out. But that fight would have been amazing regardless of who you think would have won. I can't believe no one ever pushed for this fight, I seriously think it's the biggest fight that never happened in past 9 years.

        All you ****in morons actually supported Hatton/Mayweather like Hatton ever had a chance lol...

            Skill wise Mayweather is better but Cotto is bigger than him and his timing and accuracy are on par with Floyds. The guy put Clottey on the floor with a jab and I believe Cottos jab will screw with Mayweathers rythm.

                Cotto wouldn't beat Mayweather. If you want to see a Baldomir II, it wont be against Margarito it would be against Cotto.
