    Never said Lara was, said maybe if he beat Lara. Still, Cotto hasn't done shit since moving up from 147. Bradley, Martinez and Khan are definitely more credible, not only would they bring more to the ring; better challenge, it means more to beat those guys right now.

      Yes if they fight at 154. There are no manny better options for Mayweather to fight. I think it could verry well happen. Cotto may lose but it would be the biggest payday in his life and he could retire after that. He doesnt want to fight much longer anyway so why not?

        Lets put Floyd in there against a fighter who has to get set, is practically one-handed for the most part, telegraphs his punches and has alright conditioning. Lets call that a credible fight

        Also, don't talk to me about Cotto's jab, Floyd will pull counter his ass. You guys really don't know how easily Floyd slices through him right now.

            More credible then Ortiz. But there are obviously better fights to be made at this stage.

                Cotto telegraphs his punches? Have you actually ever watched him?

                  Cottos a credible opponent for floyd, only in so much Cotto has a chance against Floyd, because Floyd isnt ahead of peers. Its a pick em fight because i dont rate Floyd.

                  But as for if Floyd beats Cotto, he wont get any credit whatsoever for beating Cotto. Pac destroyed him already.

                  So by what i just said, should i vote yes or no? He is credible because he is capable of beating Floyd, but then again he isnt credible, because Floyd will get no credit whatsoever for beating him.

                    His left hook especially, yes. And as it is, Floyd doesn't get hit with left hooks O.O

                      Cotto doesnt telegraph his left hook. Watch him:
