This is the Best Thing for Cotto

[DLT]

When I was a big Cotto fan is when N'Dou had just come off a good showing against Mitchell, Cotto was scheduled to fight some bum who backed out and then they picked N'Dou. I said wow, this kid is really moving fast and wants to fight top guys. I said it is great for him to fight such a tough guy on short notice.

Since then I think he has fought all bums again except for Chop and that wasnt special because he was just coming off of 2 losses and the fight was in PR

Now he was about to fight a clown fight again. Branco had no chance and this fight was a joke. Hopfully now he can do what he did the 1st time with N'Dou and fight a better opponent on shorter notice. A guy like Witter would be a huge fight and would give him alot of credibility. The only thing is that I dont know if Witter would take it. I think he wants big fights but he knows what happened last time he took a fight on short notice. Judah killed him.

Maybe even Vivian Harris. He is still a good name and would be suitable for the fans but I think its too much of a danger fight right now with nothing to gain. Holt said he would fight him and I made a thread before about this fight and people thought it was dumb and that Cotto would kill him but I said back then that I thought Holt's skill and power could cause Cotto some problems and I still stand by that. I wouldnt mind seeing it or any of these fights

I think the best we (as boxing fans looking for a decent match-up) can hope for is Kendall Holt.

Cotto TKO 8 Holt.

It wouldnt take Cotto 8 rounds to ice the glass jawed Holt, his beard is absolutely awful.

But...

the guy can punch and he is quick as **** so maybe he has a pncher chance but the first time Cotto touched him the fight would be over.

I only saw Cotto once and that was an unimpressive victory over Corley. Has he faught since then? I hope he does better, he is a talented fighter.

he still is good he beat abduleave a few months back....

arum is promoting him well, its all mental
beat the last guy who beat u (abdulaev)
a guy who has beat u twice in amaeturs (pinto)

it wipes it out, and gives more confidence

[BLOODSHED]

Cotto is my man, but I have to say that he needs to pick it up and fight a top 5 fighter. Im getting impatient somewhat with his level of fighters.

[TheEvilSaint]

he should fight maussa again. maussa is ugly, hes unskilled, hes sloppy, but he can punch and take a punch.

cotto should get rid of maussa again.

[Exciterx30]

I think the fight with Branco was a decent one and was expecting it. Besides, not too often you get a Puerto Rico vs. Italy showdown. Anyway, that's not happening now. I sincerely don't know what fight Cotto will get now. Maussa is a perfect bout for him but I bet that Maussa will duck him after Cotto defeated him in 2003. The Augustus fight sounds very interesting but you never know.

I dont think Augustus can make 140 in 3 weeks, if he does he wont be nearly as effective. Maybe 147 but not 140
