    Cotto/Floyd/Pac/ fight at Middle weight

    if you thought Trout was Huge for Cotto at 154(I think trout is a natural LMW/MW)

    how would they fare against what some people call "Small" Middle weight Sergio Martinez on his turff? at 160

    Prime Cotto
    Prime Floyd
    Prime Manny

    they have the same body wight as today but are on a prime state(for the sake of this fight)

    all would lose at 160.

    Mayweather would maybe have a 40% chance at 160 vs. Martinez and 60% at 154. 95% at 147.

    "they have the same body wight as today but are on a prime state(for the sake of this fight)"

    no idea what this means but if it's what i think, that a prime Pac would suddenly morph into a 147lb beast with the same skillset he had at lower weights in his prime i have no interest in speculating.

          I'm fine with Martinez-Floyd at 154 because it's a highly competitive fight. Why would i rather see a "fair" fight vs. Guerrero where Floyd wins 95% of the time?

          A completely fair fight is actually when both guys have 50% chance of winning if we're going to nitpick. And i think Floyd vs. Martinez is as close to a 50/50 that Floyd is going to get.

            I guess one needs a 160 pounder to even the odds against the smaller welterweight floyd right?

              Martinez is a natural 154 who moved up for an opportunity to fight Pavlik.
              Yes. Most often it will take a bigger guy to beat a more skilled p4p #1.
