I think if he sticks behind his beautiful jab and uses body movement and fights him on the inside Cotto can beat the punfinisher. I didnt have any support in my opinion yesterday and I still wont have a lot but after last night a lil more I think. Anyways vote on who your picking.
    Interesting fight definitely.

          Cotto has been making a good recovery from all the wars and those brutal beatdowns. if he's careful and heeds Stewards guidance, he just might become better than what he was. He's still young. And he MIGHT do better overall at 154.

          Steward is the best thing that happened to Cotto, and has corrected some bad habits, and I'm sure they are using this time for him to heal that shoulder, and his confidence is slowly returning. Time heals all wounds. He was a brute @147, and he's not even 30 yet. We may just see Cotto's best yet to come. I don't believe he's shot at all. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

          And seeing how badly Margo lost against Pac, I'm sure this has encouraged him that him and steward can figure out how to handle 'come forward hi-pressure fighters. He's a good boxer and has a great jab and lots of ko power at 154.

          I'd like to see him learn some of Manny's lateral movements, instead of going backwards, which he's better off doing, turning his bigger opponents, like Manny. It's a great strategy that seems to work well again bigger pressure fighters. Just ask Manny! Lol.

            Hmmm.... a chinny overrated haymon bum vs. a chinny knee taking quitter....


            At least Cotto can punch, I'll go with Cotto by k.o or decision.

              Cotto is not a southpaw and doesn't have as much power as Martinez, IMO. He gets beaten up if doesn't make Paul respect his power.

                    Cotto + pressure/volume puncher = Bad idea
                    i'm thinking the same thing. styles make fights.

                      Cotto by KO. I think Williams is too easy too hit, slow and with average/below average power. He doesn't have enough to win against Cotto.
