Cotto v. Berto for June 12th, anybody?

[NWO4Life]

Who's down for that scenario? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

[FloydTBE]

Id like to see Cotto-Berto. I think that cotto would win by Late KO, berto has not looked great in his recent fights. YES,cotto is coming off a humiliating loss but he has still got the power and strength at 147lbs to cause guys problems.

Dont care for Berto. Mosley would have kicked his ass

[freeloada]

I think the best case scenario for the Welterweight division as a whole would be for this fight to go down and May/mosley to actually occur (wishful thinking, I know).

We would then have:

Manny Pacquiao vs. Joshua Clottey for the WBO WW title.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Shane Mosley for the WBA WW title.

Andre Berto vs. Miguel Cotto for the WBC WW title.

and MAYBE, although I don't like the idea of a cheater being rewarded...

Antonio Margarito vs. Jan Zaveck for the IBF WW title (would make a good "return" bout for Margs, although probably unlikely to get made)

Who wouldn't like to see a sort of defacto tourney for the WW title go down like that? Unify 2 of 4 titles in the matchups afterwards and then unify em all in the final match and the winner is the superultramegadiamondspectaculosocampeonatodelmund o.

thats funny.. good word.. i shall now steal it and make it my own..

Sound good to anybody? If May v. Mosley gets done (lets hope) and Pac-Clottey are fighting and both fights are around the March/April time period, that sort of leaves Berto out in the cold if he wanted to get a big fight when he is ready sometime late-spring early summer. I doubt he'd wanna go with Collazo again b/c he'd have everything to lose and nothing to gain...a fight w/ Cotto makes a lot of sense to me. That would be a big fight, and it is the only thing close to a Mosley fight for Berto if he still wants a big fight.

I'd much rather see this fight than Cotto v Foreman and Berto v whoever (unless it is Collazo, I wouldnt mind seeing a rematch but I doubt Berto will risk future paydays like that). Cotto v Berto would be a pretty big attraction and a ppv worthy bout. I'm still sorta surprised that Mosley/Berto was gonna be on "free" HBO, but I aint complaining.

wha???.....lets just concentrate on Mosely Vs Berto first...then maybe berto vs cotto

this may not be bad. he would be nice for both fighters. but it looks like Cotto is going to fight at 154

I like it. That would be a big fight. A step up in competition for Berto and an opportunity for Cotto to somewhat redeem himself.
That would be awesome!

Not gonna happen. Bob likes to keep everything in house. Cotto vs Foreman and if Foreman wins Foreman vs Pacquiao in the fall. If Cotto wins he will get a rematch with Margacheato.

i do agree that a fight with Berto is a better fight for cotto but at the same time the yuri fight aint chop liver either ...
