    I cannot see Coto staying at 140 much longer. He'll be at 154 within 2-3 years, as long as he doesn't get destroyed in that time.

        Cotto is just way to slow for Floyd.

              Mayweather would beat Cotto at any point in their careers. His style is just not a good match up for Cotto. Cotto is a future superstar in my opinion but if or when they ever fight Mayweather will beat him.

                I think you're in the minority with me Kerminator.

                I think Cotto would win it... I think Cotto is the best 140lb fighter in the World.

                This is coming from a BIG Ricky Hatton fan.

                I dunno what it is with Cotto... There's just something really special about him. His power is under-rated, - He hit's so hard you can see the other fighters get sick!

                I've always said this... That the Cotto vs Corley fight was the worst thing that could have happened for all the other 140lb fighters. It made Cotto for the 1st time realise that he's not invinsible, and I don't think we'll ever see anything like that happen again with him! (Well, at least not for 8-10yrs).

                I'm suprised he get's so much disrespect, because he's fasinating to watch ing the ring... His style makes me think of the perfect boxer. - It's EXACTLY what they teach you from the beginning... Only it's been perfected.

                  OK some good points there guys but I must admit im very surprised that very few fans(me and my buddy Martin lol) have faith in Cotto to beat PBF.

                  Cotto has never been tested to above 50% of his capabilities yet as he really has'nt needed to dig dep yet alot of his wins are over very good fighters some of which have troubled PBF in the past.

                  I will however keep an open mind but perhaps Cotto is one of the fighters that I cant see any wrong in.

                  Im an avid Scott Harrison fan and have been given plenty of criticism some constructive and some not but I will always fancy him In a fight against Chi and even Marquez (if he's on his game)yet again im in the minority.(I was in the minority when I foreseen Hatton beating Tzyu so heres hoping)

                  Cheers for your opinions....

                    Floyd could definetly win this,but cottos power at 140 would at least give Floyd fits,Im going to go out on a limb and say Cotto wins,in a very very close fight (which will surely be called a robbery if floyd loses ) Floyd is the #1 p4p guy.no doubt.But he'd be up against a strong guy with great skill,if Im ever going to bet against Mayweather,and i wouldnt even bet against him in a Zab fight,itd be against cotto.Cotto would certainly help his chances by taking 2-3 good caliber opponents before a floyd fight,but sometimes going in there with the best will bring out the best in a fighter (not unlike Taylor vs Hop)

                      Fella, On the flipside... I think Scott Harrison is a belt waiting to be taken by the 1st fighter that has intelligence to box and MOVE!

                      I personally think that Juan Manuel Marquez is the best counter puncher in the game today. His style is so made for Harrison.

                      I'm 99% sure that Marquez would have an extremely easy nights work with Harrison.
