Are you serious?a few years ago I would have given it to Cotto but right now Khan would be too much for him.
Pac's hand speed gave him huge problems and Amir is just as fast if not faster. How would Cotto react to being blasted with combos every few seconds? if it's the same way he did against Pac then he won't make it past the 11th round.
Khan has a work ethic similar to Joe Calzaghe so it's no surprise that he also has the same moxy and swagger ahead of that work ethic, coupled with a brilliant all around striking game that constantly improves with every fight.
I hope Khan's team push for this fight after the Malinagi bout. It would shoot him up the ranks quickly.Comment

not trying to make Pac look bad, Cotto is a top WW still. I just think Khan has the tools to employ a similar strategy to take him out. Khan is very underrated his chin would defintly be tested but don't confuse Cottos punches with a couple of Haymakers from Prescott. Much of that can be negated with hand speed and good footwork.Comment

Bull****, Cotto would mop the floor with Khan, like i said before. Remember when Cotto had pac on the ropes and snapped Pac's head back? When he does that to Khan, Khan = 6 feet under.Comment

Prescott is clearly not a 12 rounder. He is wild with maybe some power, but that is done after 4or 5 rounds.not trying to make Pac look bad, Cotto is a top WW still.

Khan has a chin that will take shots form Cotto who can go to the body, head and time, box Khan.
Khan is a good fighter, but I even put him in third spot below Bradley and Alexander.
Khan is in the 2nd tier for now until he proves himslef.
No disrespect to Cotto, he prob won;t be the same, but he's still a good fighter.Comment
