    Yeah I know. I wouldnt mind it I guess but I would rather see Chop because as all of you know, I thought Chop would do well but there was something I was way off on. I knew that Cotto would have the weight advantage but I actually thought that Cotto would be like 154 and Chop would be 147 so when I saw the weights for the fight, I said Oh NO

    By the way, I think it will be closer to that weight next time or atleast I hope
    Corley should go down to 135, he can make that weight..

        There are so many other good fights out there for Cotto . . . if a possible fight with Harris is confirmed out then why fight Chop again? Go for the real thing . . . go for Gatti! DAMN too much circus acts.

          I really am curious to see what weight Cotto comes to the weigh-in at, to me that will say alot about how much longer he stays at this weight, cause if he struggles as hard this time and it still takes 2 or 3 tries then he may move up after the fight which would really suck cause then no Harris fight AGAIN!

          I really think that Cotto wants Corley again as opposed to Abdullaev or however you spell it, while I'm sure avenging his lose as an amateur is a big deal to him, a stronger showing against Chop in a rematch is imo very important to Cotto, as well as 99% of Puerto Rico!

              In my opinion there are many excellent fighters in the division that are sort of avoiding to fight each other for records sake. That is why is so hard for fighters like Cotto to challenge these champs. Cotto brings too much risk to the table. A true warrior should fight the best fighters available and even if he does not win, the fans will respect him for doing so. In the mean time Cotto has to fight again with Chop until the Gattis, the Mayweathers and company make themselves available, that is, when it is inevitable for them to take the risk.

                  I'm going to have to disagree with you on that. I don't think that there's going to be any temple shots this time around. Expect the usual patient breaking down the body Cotto in that ring come June 11th. I believe he learned that he has to focus on the guy in front of him rather than pleasing the crowd.

                    Cotto will most likely beat him again and look more impressive doing so than the last time, but the only reason why is because it his second chance at fighting him, and he sees what Corley brings to the table now. I said it once and I'll say it again, if it was someone else in the 140 division Cotto would have been KO'd, but he'll be exposed in due time. He showed us that last fight that he is susceptible to being shocked..

                      Damn, no Harris fight? I want to see Cotto with somebody who can actually crack a bit and have some skill. Alsoo as a fan of Harris it really hurts me than he wont fight anybody worsy in due time.
