What would it take for Cotto to make the HOF

[kiaba360]

-Beat Pac and Floyd
-Become Undisputed Champion at 154
-Win a belt at 160

If he does all 3, he's most definitely a 1st ballot HOF'er. If he does a combination of 2, he still gets in.

I seriously think after a solid career over 3 weight classes a win over either 1 of the 2 top guys (Pac and May) is more than enough to send him Hall Bound

Cotto is a good fighter and was better at 140 and 147. He needs to fight real contendesr at 154, like Kirkland, Rodriguez or Angulo, Then unify with Canelo.. finally he should either evenge his loss with Pacquiao or move up to 160 and beat Chavez jr. because there is no way in hell he can beat Martinez!! That said Cotto would be HOF in my eyes, Right now he is just a fake as 154 champion who had not accoplished anythingto at that weight to have fought for tha championship.. People criticize Chavez jr and Canelo for aquiring their Belts 8in that fashion but Cotto did the exact same thing at 154..

Where's your IQ at genious?

Christ your one Moranic Nationalistic Mexican.



Margarito would break canelo's ******ity.Even at this point.Today.

Cotto beating Margarito alone @ 154 shits all over Canelo's quality of
opponnents + resume all at once.Oh wait excuse me @ 153 before you throw another one of your excuses.




Oh and isnt Kirkland Canelo's Mandatotory? Oh wait the the WBC has him rated at #15,hmm wonder why.

Foreman was Legit before being beat. Even Manny didn't wana fight the guy claiming he was 'to tall' but then went and fought Margarita right after.

I would like to see how Margo does against any of the top 154's or even Mayorga that way we can better judge where Cotto stands at this point...And we all know that Mayorga can crack anyone's chin in that division...yes even at this age. Hell throw Kirkland in there and he prob get KTFO.

unify at 154 or move up and beat Martinez

[Larry the boss]

those who say he is already hof worthy please explain why..

[D4thincarnation]

Nailed on HOF already.

3 weight world champ, a great entertainer in the ring, gave us some great fights, Pacquiao is the only person he has fought and has not beat, no shame in that.

Great heart, mental toughest to come from those losses, fought many big names.

I don't think he's HOF yet, but I think a solid win over Canelo or Kirkland or both puts him there. In my eyes he hasn't had a great win since beating Mosley in '07, he's going to need to do something serious at 154.

[teddycanyon]

and to the people who say Cotto needs to avenge a loss against Pacquiao, did Hearns need to avenge his KO loss to Hagler or Leonard when he wasn't shot-to-**** to make the hall? There can be a difference between an ATG and a hall of famer and Cotto is never going to be ATG status.
