    Cotto needs a tune up first to see where he stands. Cotto should fight the Smith/Molina winner and then if he wins fight Canelo in May 2014.

        Cotto is shot
        no point in Alvarez fighting him, Cotto would get killed
        if there's no Floyd fight, rematch Trout, it was close
        that or face Lara later on if he's still available

          Absolutely not. He should fight the Lara/Angulo winner next, and Cotto should fight the Molina/Smith winner. That way it gives a path for them to clash in a significant fight. If Cotto was only coming off 1 loss to Floyd, I'd say make the fight. But he's lost two in a row now. Let him get a decent win again first.

            Cotto still beats the Smith/Molina winner, I hope that fight happens. Cotto isn't shot. Shot is Mosley or Jones. Cotto isn't prime but he's still good enough to beat good fighters. Mayweather and Trout are just better than Cotto.

              I somewhat agree. I think the loss to Trout was close enough to warrant a rematch, and better prep creates an entirely different scenario for Cotto. I like his chances better against Canelo to be honest. Canelo isn't a pressure fighter, the fight would be a tactical affair, with savage exchanges from both guys. The man with a stronger resolve will be crowned champion.
              I think Cotto's mental fortitude is better than he's often given credit for. The man is a survivalist. He is willing to soak severe amounts of damage even if it means going out on his shield, to be a trooper. And he can crack with the best of em. If you're Canelo's matchmaker and you looked at Trout as a good test of wits, Cotto is definitely the flip side to that. Cotto's going to test his will. It makes sense to steer Canelo into a Cotto fight if you're building him up for a showdown with animals like Martinez and GGG

                Cotto spent what ever he had left against Floyd, he's shot
                Cotto has no speed, no defense, and no chin
                and as a JMW, he has no power
                he'll do nothing but lose to ranked JMW's, he's not legit there
                even if he could/did go back to WW, can't see him doing much
                just how good do you think Cotto is?
                Trout's not better than him, he's just prime and bigger

                    Sorry bro but that Avi is kinda suspect...
                    Meh, I can't judge. I have a mancrush on Knuckles, which is why he's not wearing any clothes in mine. :wank::wank::wank:
