    I think Saul Alvarez would beat Cotto right now. People act like Cotto would be some legacy defining fight for Floyd LMAO! Cotto is so overrated around here, people make him sound like an ATG.

      No not at all, the only thing that cotto would be bring into this fight is a big name and that's it I think he would get picked apart at this point.

      A pre-Margarito Cotto would have made for a sensational fight against Floyd, if people remember correctly after Cotto beat Mosley everybody was demanding Floyd-Cotto. It's a shame the fight never took place.

        Floyd has nothing to gain from beating Manny's leftovers. People would just say that he's shot and already lost to Cheatto and Pac so why even do it to himself?

          No, since when did Floyd get fed manny's leftovers? manny eats what Floyd took home in the Styrofoam box like how flips try to copy the styles of Blacks

            Thank you! Why the hell would anybody want to see this fight? I would rip Floyd if he signed to fight Cotto. It would be Pacquiao vs Mosley all over again.

                Yes, because it is the best available fight for FMJ if he will not fight Pac or Martinez. Cotto has experience, enough power, with a better trainer, and the best at JMW. This will also show how good FMJ's skills really are instead of these fantasy fights.

                  at this point, based on the pp cotto has and hasnt been fighting, this fight would indeed be pointless.cotto has already gone as far as he can go. in boxing years id go as far as to say hes much older than guys like floydpac, and even martinez. blame his style. blocks too many punches with his face.

                    Floyd doesn't have a style to cause problems and cotto has a geat jab. It would be a good fight. Cotto IS a champ at 154 also.

                      if somehow cotto becomes the man at 154lb over the next 12 months, then that could enyice Floyd, but for the majority of fans I'd say thi is 3 years too late, Cotto is shot and Floyd hands him a beating

                      Truth be told, I think wouldve handed him a beating no matter when it took place, just the fight wouldve been bigger 3 years ago and it wouldve done more for Floyd and Cotto's legacy
