I know this might sound a bit wacky, but of all people that Mayweather fought at 140 and 147, I think Cotto might actually have the most problems with Arturo Gatti. People quickly forget that Cotto was not durable at 140 at all due to weight drain and/or inexperience, and was doing the chicken dance against Torres and Corley, despite hurting both.
Thats the kind of fight that Gatti is hard to count out of, and say what you will about how flawed and incomplete his style is, but if an unelusive opponent in front of him, he could tee off pretty well. That just might be hell for the plodder, fragile version of 140lb Cotto.
I have no doubt that 147lb Cotto beats Judah, Baldomir, and the older version of Mosley that Mayweather fought.
