how can you say he cant beat him @ 140-145?
corrales has never faught at that weight

[No-mas-tias]

Cotto has 25 fights, in his first 25 fights Mayweather's only credible opponent was Diego Corrales. Cotto in his first 25 fights has already fought guys like Sosa and Corley and KO'ed them, something Mayweather couldn't do in his 30th and 32nd fight where he already had much more ring experience than Cotto who defeated them in his 19th and 23rd fight.

Mayweather had an 11 fight experience advantage in comparison to when Cotto fought Sosa and a 9 fight experience advantage when he fought Corley. Lets not even talk about Cotto being 3 years younger, hence he fought them at a younger age and looked more impressive aginst them.

Cotto returns on March 4...against Raul Balbi?
By G. Leon

December 18, 2005 - Moments ago Top Rank chief Bob Arum informed butt-talk.vomit.com that undefeated WBO junior welterweight champion Miguel Cotto will return to the ring on March 4. According to Arum, Cotto will likely face former lightweight champion Raul Balbi in front of what is sure to be a sold out crown in Puerto Rico. There will be more to follow including a full interview with Arum so stay tuned.


This is a complete joke. If Cotto's gonna solidify his dominance in the 140lb division, he can't keep this **** up.

Patience amigo. Since the fight is in his hometown just consider this a tune up or a promotional fight. All the big names have scheduled fights so this fight is better than being idle, just to keep the rust of his system while waiting for the big one.

Reggaeton music sux, but you make good points, I'm a Cotto fan, and after that last "scare" of a fight, maybe he should hit that drawing board up one more time, before taking that step up to a superfight.

dont try to compare floyds recent opposition to cotto's. in fact, i would LOVE to see cotto take on a mitchell or gatti, but hes still fighting bums

Im not trying to Disrespect Maywether,and i said RECENT opposition.BUt if your counting Gatti &Mitchell as GREAT opposition,you have 0 credibility on that point,and cotto's camp DID offer Mitchell a fight,HE TURNED IT DOWN.

[ottoevans]

hahaha your so pathetic, everytime i say something bout mayweather you go back to that 1 fight & think it means something to me!
chico would beat the **** outta gayweather if they faught again!

yeah since that fight was sooo close huh

floyd has a dif style than cotto, therefore hes going to produice fewer knockouts
floyd has dominated all his competition with the exception of one fight, someting cotto cannot say.
floyds first 25 fight resume is more impressive that cottos, and just becuase you havent heard of some of the fighters floyd fought, doesnt mean there not good. there was a thread on this a while ago, and i wrote a long paragraph on this, but i really dont feel like doing that now

ok, let me explain something to you
chico's most valuable asset is power. thats the only edge he has over floyd. i chico tries to box floyd, he would get embrassed. at 135, chico is one of the strongest punchers you can find. however, if he moves up in weight, you will see a decline in his power. for example, jeff lacy is one super powerful super middleweight, but if he moveed up to light heavy, he wouldnt had the knockout precentage he has right now.
that being said, floyd is a hell of a lot better now than he has been in his whole career. i would say chico has gotten worse, with his recent losses to casa and castillo. dont get me wrong, chico is a warrior and i stick up for him every chance i get, but there are few and far between who will agree with you taht deigo would get the best of floyd in a rematch at 140 or 147
