      Yuri would beat the **** out of JCC Jr. too.

      Foreman is a good fighter, he's just boring. I wouldn't even want Cotto to fight him at this point even though I think he could win.

        Cotto should retire. It's one thing to not be good enough to compete with the best. But once you show no heart, you should just go away. Cotto quit against Margarito, he would have quit against Clottey if Clottey didn't let him off the hook, and now he ran away from Pacquiao for six rounds. Why would anyone want to see him fight again?

          No, Cotto is a natural JWW and will struggle more at an even higher unnatural weight. Cotto was a much better fighter at JWW, IMHO...

              He is being grossly underestimated and that fat lazy Santos showed us what happens when you do that.

                No...He should even out to 147 by putting on a lil muscle and getting better conditioning..Same thing i said a while ago when i said him taking a catch weight was boneheaded..1lb or not..

                    Agree with avoiding 2 of those 4 but I think Cotto beats Dzinziruk due to him not having the power or speed to keep Cotto off of him, he's a very good boxer though. Let's not forget an undefeated prime southpaw that goes by the name of Carlos Quintana with decent power and better boxing skills than Cotto, lasted a mere 5 rounds in there with Mr. Cotto.

                    Cotto beats Angulo worse than Cintron beat him.

                    Williams and Martinez at 154 would use Cotto as target practice.

                    With that said, Cotto is fine at WW imo.
                    I would actually fancy Cotto's chances against Martinez because Martinez had a similar style to Quintana. People think that Angulo would lose to Cotto just because he's slow and doesn't have good defense. But his chin is good enough to with stand Cotto's fire power and he applies a lot of pressure and Cotto doesn't do good against guys like that.
