    Cotto vs. Bradley @ 147lbs. - Who takes it?

    This would make for an very interesting matchup......

    Definately a good test for both fighters....To see if Cotto still "has it"....and a legit test for Bradley in the 147lb division.

    Depending on how Cotto does this weekend...I would give this fight a 50/50 chance for both fighters....they have attributes and strengths that would cancel each other out....

    + for Cotto: punching power, big stage experience, quality of opposition, Emmanuel Steward

    + for Bradley: good chin, excellent boxing ability, good stamina

    In the end....I see the Desert Storm getting a SD win over Cotto....setting the table up for a potential Pacquiao/Mayweather showdown....

    Finally I can pick Cotto, Bradley can't hurt that man, Cotto could walk him down like Margorito did him. Bradley has no pop at 140 he couldn't possibly manage up enough to land something devastating on Cotto a guy that has taken world class shots and beatings, no way Bradley hurts him.

      You don't have to hurt someone to beat them....Foreman's record is evident of that....Bradley's resume is proof....Malignaggi's resume.....Sweet Pea's resume....

      Boxing ability trumps sheer power.....
