    I laugh at people who think he can't fight elites anymore. Cotto will beat Mosley up if they fight again. I still think he'd destroy Mayweather since his style is bad news for Floyd.
    Too bad Floyd won't fight him anymore because he has two lost now LOL. Also he's to damage for Floyd now, Floyd only fight fresh fighter haha.

        Cotto can beat elite fighters and he beat Mosley again if they fight after Cotto get's 2 tune ups to regain his confidence but he needs a long break. His body can't take punishment like it used too. His face started to get all ****ed up and red in the 2nd/3rd round against Pacquiao. Get a real trainer and take at least a year off. He probably won't do any of those things but he should.

          Marquez was such a fresh fighter and all being 36 years old with 4 losses.

              Even though he still has speed at 147, he looks like he lost a step or two since his 140 days. But he was a beast back in the day.




              Cotto looked great because Evangalista made sure he was prepared for every fight. Look what happened when he left Evangalista, he looked like crap against Clottey and Pacquiao.

                Can you explain why his style is bad news for Floyd?

                Please don't say his jab or pressure.

                  wait a second look at your first sentence. He's a beast at 140, he's weight drained at 140, when he was healthy at 140. HUH?

                  Which one is it?

                  Everytime he got hurt at 140, cotto fans attribute it to him having to make 140. Now he lost a step at 147.


                  You cant pick & choose great fights he had at 140 & say wow he's a beast against pinto but when he gets hurt by torres ohh he was weight drained.

                  How many times have I read he is so much better getting out of 140. Now this?

                  cmon brah.

                    This guy got wobbled by Corley badly, taken to the hospital even in his win vs Judah, played runaway bride against Mosley for 5 rounds, got battered and quit against Margarito, struggled and arguably lost to Clottey, got ****d by a former Straweight, yet he could beat Floyd Mayweather -_-

                    Maybe he meant Senior?

I think he needs to work on his right hand to make it another weapon, when you have two hands someone really needs to worry about you become even more dangerous. And I notice againest Margarito and Pacquiao he was more intent on going to their head instead of hitting the body more. His jab is a thing of beauty but I feel he relies on it too much, though i think recently everything is mental with him and just needs to be tweaked with a new trainer.
                      Nancho Bernstein would be the perfect trainer for Cotto.
