    Cotto Will Possibly Move Up To 160 Pounds

    Thats what he says on an interview with El Nuevo Dia newspaper in Puerto Rico. I think if he does move up it would probably be against Chavez Jr or Martinez in New York.

    That is such a bad decision but whatever he does, he will have full support.

      Not a good decision, but it's his choice. Sergio will probably beat him, and Chavez is too big.

      We'll probably see Chavez vs. Cotto on PPV in October, leaving Sergio Martinez in the wind once again.

      God I hope Andy Lee beats Chavez.

      Cotto should just take a softer touch (after Floyd) by fighting a good/decent Top 10 SWW like Budnrage, to grab the IBF title. Than, fight Canelo next Spring if he beats Kirkland, in a huge PPV unification. That's what I'd do if I were him.

        Well he could use his star power and get a catchweight and a dehydration clause. If Pacquiao does it than why not.

            I think it will be Chavez in MSG. I wish it is and Cotto puts a beating on that fraud!

              I hope not. He still has plenty of things he can do at 154.

                I doubt Cotto would have any real leverage on his punches at 160 not a good idea...

                  i think junior is just too large


                  cotto could beat martinez. if the odds look good i'll take cotto

                  you heard it here first

                  i like sergio as much as the next guy but he's over rated

                  cotto's also less faded than i had thought he'd be at this stage. and pedro diaz is a good trainer


                  if a few wrinkles from macklin, barker, and the like can give martinez some issues you know the skills of miguel cotto will do the very same

                  cotto would have the power to hurt him
                  a good jab
                  he's a better fighter. the issue will be the size. can cotto deal with a faster fighter with some gas who is that much bigger than he is?
