Can Cotto bring balance back to the Mexican vs. Rican rivalry?

if chavez jr doesn't want to man up and fight martinez like the winner of his next bout is suppose to, then him and arum should tell mosley to move up to MW. he should be a good stepping stone for chavez jr. plus he made the 154 limit against mora, i'm sure he can come in 156/157 against chavez jr. cotto still has enough left to beat chavez jr imo....either way, chavez jr isn't fighting martinez, which is a shame...

Why would any one want to watch that. We all know sergio will **** jr. Martinez should focus on the top dogs at middle weight and stop chasing top rank fighters bc arum will never allow one of his fighters to fight him. Martinez should fight pirog instead.

I can casually play off Calderón losing to Giovanni Segura. Calderón was on his way out, and Giovanni Segura is an exciting fighter. All credit to him.

I can tolerate Juanma losing to Orlando Salido. Salido was a live dog that people were putting off as a tune-up. I never saw him as a walk in the park. Juanma's sloppy defense got the better of him, all props to Salido!

I've never seen Wilfredo Vázquez, Jr, fight and I bet on him to beat Arce. What an idiot! Good win for Arce, but from now on I'm hating on Vázquez!

Now, here's the thing: If Miguel Cotto LOSES to Julio César Chávez, Jr...I'm...I'm probably gonna' feel like Reed when he saw Jones get knocked out by Tarver.

Okay, I'm exaggerating, but I'll feel half as bad as that. I WILL feel as bad, however, if Cotto is stopped by that kid.

Ugh...that will truly be the nail in the coffin for me. If the other PR fighters lose, I can take that with a grain of salt, but Cotto...

well zbik is defending his wbc mw belt against chavez jr, so that would make martinez the next in line against the winner of zbik/chavez jr. martinez is looking for a better payday, a showdown between him & chavez jr in mexico would give him a great payday. plus, pirog is an up and comer, biggest win for him was against another up and comer, daniel jacobs. cmon now, you don't think martinez would put jacobs away? pirog isn't big enough to the point where martinez needs to fight him...even in russia, i doubt he would make as much or more against chavez jr in mexico.
but **** it, cotto at 160 against chavez jr. if he beats him, i'd like for him to face martinez, either @ 154 or 160, his choice.

Cottos ok but I don't see him pulling this one off

[JBell11]

IDK, I think Cotto will out-box Chavez. I have no doubt in my mind that this will be the case. Personally, I think Chavez is a bit overrated.

Technically speaking, if Cotto can slip inside Chavez long reach he can definitely do it.

JCC Jr is going to be a problem for Cotto

I don't know why Mexicans don't like this dude

This is how I reacted when I heard of the news of it being a done Deal.

^^^^ true story.

Cotto is to this rivalry what Luke Skywalker was to the force! So Yes, Cotto can do it. Margarito was clearly Darth Vadar.. Not sure who Dinero de vaca would be in this parallel..

did u see his last fight?He looked like shlt.Ever since he moved up to
middleweight,He has lost power.

[microMXL]

so the fight is at 160? well Cotto should be favorite, but Chavez Carrasco has a chance, but first he has to beat Zbik
