140 Cotto vs 140 rios who wins?

[MJ223]

Rios would have his moments but I would favor Cotto.....

So we agree Cotto packs a heavier punch than alvarado at 140?
I cant see Cotto doing his bodywork against rios.
You think rios has that Margarito chin at 140?

cotto puts him out in a war of attrition.

Cotto fan right here. But Cotto isnt really known for his stamina specially at 140 if im not mistaken.

and he is still doesn't. that doesn't change the fact that he was still a better fighter then.

Picking this fight really comes down to how much better you think Cotto was at 147, and whether Rios is capable of staying in front of Cotto and wearing him down like Margarito did. If you want to bring up plaster, that's fine because Rios hits harder than Margarito, so the plaster fits the discussion.

every week when a fighter wins on Saturday night we get this crazy threads lol

i would like Rios to win, i think he could beat him very similar to Margaritos win over Cotto, Margarito inside fighting is not as good as Rios but i favored a prime 140 Cotto to win but its 50/50 lol im getting tired of saying 50/50

I think he does. Especially if you think Margarito was cheating.

Even if he doesn't hit harder, he at least hits as hard. Rios can punch.
