    I'd say Bradley. Although I feel Cotto is past his prime, he still has the tools and style to potentially give Mayweather trouble. Other than Bradley's boxing ability, which I expect to help make this fight more competitive, I really don't see him beating Pac in any way. I see him giving him a little trouble early, but that's it. He's not JMM.

        I can't say I see either underdog winning or having all that good a shot.

        I give both Cotto and Bradley about a 10% shot.

        Not much in it~ either way

          Cotto over Floyd.

          I can see Bradley giving Pacquaio problems and causing a potential upset. Whereas Floyd has Cotto's number, if he were to lose I'd be shocked.

            Bradley beating Pac. Tim is a solid fighter in all categories but is special in none. He is going to fight someone special that is also been a while at a higher weight. Bradley is mentally strong and might be a factor in the fight.

            Atleast with Cotto and Floyd, Cotto has punching power and a jab. The left hook to Floyd's body might pay a lot of dividends. Cotto is offbeat with his punches especially the jab so he might have some degree of success in the fight

            I don't judge Pac for the Marquez fight. The history is that he will always give problems to Pac and a lot of ppl were dismissing Marquez like an old fighter fighting out of his weight. Before that Pac has dominated every opponent that hasn't been Marquez

              floyd-cotto easily...that fight is a mismatch. the only thing that's carrying that matchup is they're both popular and proven ppv fighters. without their huge popularity, that fight will not get interest from fans.

              pac-bradley...although pac is favored to win, that fight could turn out to be competitive. pac has the advantage in speed and power but everything else is somewhat equal. bradley even has the edge in infighting and his ability to adjust which he could use to nuetralize pac.

                The Wolf: I'm Winston Wolfe. I solve problems.
                Jimmie: Good, we got one.
                The Wolf: So I heard. May I come in?
                Jimmie: Uh, yeah, please do.

                The Wolf: You must be Jules, which would make you Vincent. Let's get down to brass tacks, gentlemen. If I was informed correctly, the clock is ticking, is that right, Jimmie?
                Jimmie: Uh, one hundred percent.
                The Wolf: Your wife... Bonnie comes home at 9:30 in the AM, is that right?
                Jimmie: Uh-huh.
                The Wolf: I was led to believe that if she comes home and finds us here, she'd wouldn't appreciate it none too much?
                Jimmie: [laughing] She wouldn't at that.
                The Wolf: That gives us exactly... forty minutes to get the **** out of Dodge. Which, if you do what I say when I say it, should be plenty. Now, you've got a corpse in a car, minus a head, in a garage. Take me to it.

                The Wolf: Now boys, listen up. We're going to a place called Monster Joe's Truck and Tow. I'll drive the tainted car. Jules, you ride with me. Vincent, you follow in my Acura. We run across the path of any John Q. Laws, nobody does a ****ing thing unless I do it first. What did I just say?
                Jules: Don't do **** unless.
                The Wolf: Unless what?
                Jules: Unless you do it first.
                The Wolf: Spoken like a true prodigy. How about you, Lash LaRue? You think you can keep your spurs from jinglin' and janglin'?
                Vincent: Look, Mr. Wolf, my gun went off, I don't know why, and now you're helping us out of the situation. I'm cool with it, all right?
                The Wolf: Fair enough. Now I drive real ****ing fast, so keep up. I get my car back any differently than when I gave it, Monster Joe's gonna be disposing of two bodies.

                The Wolf: Jimmie, lead the way. Boys, get to work.
                Vincent: A please would be nice.
                The Wolf: Come again?
                Vincent: I said a please would be nice.
                The Wolf: Get it straight buster - I'm not here to say please, I'm here to tell you what to do and if self-preservation is an instinct you possess you'd better ****ing do it and do it quick. I'm here to help - if my help's not appreciated then lotsa luck, gentlemen.
                Jules: No, Mr. Wolf, it ain't like that, your help is definitely appreciated.
                Vincent: I don't mean any disrespect, I just don't like people barking orders at me.
                The Wolf: If I'm curt with you it's because time is a factor. I think fast, I talk fast and I need you guys to act fast if you wanna get out of this. So, pretty please... with sugar on top. Clean the ****ing car.

                  Cotto is done as an elite fighter.

                  Bradley is in his prime and is p4p one of the top 5 most talented fighters in the world.

                  I think most can figure out which fight is legit and which would be the bigger upset.

                      Someone will grow old in one of these fights, and another might slip a little.
                      Cotto defeating Floyd is the bigger upset but as long as he comes to fight he will be admired. I think Bradley will come to fight if he doesn't he will leave early because Pacman comes to fight. Ray.
