    Hard to say. I've never seen Harris fight, but Harris' height, reach, skill and power might give Cotto trouble. I pick Cotto, but it's an uninformed pick.

      Corley is gonna get stopped in this fight because Cotto comes in weighing like a Jr. Middleweight. I don't think Corley has the power to get Cotto's respect to keep him at bay. I would love to see Vivian Harris vs Cotto. That fight makes alot of sense & it would show just how good each fighter is.

        This will be a tough fight for Cotto and he might lose. I dont think Cotto can knock him out

          The one thing that makes me say that is because Zab dropped him with 1 punch & Floyd overwhelmed him with a flurry of punches. Cotto comes in so heavy by fight night that he'll be hittng Corley harder than he's ever been hit.

            It was more of Zab's and Floyd's speed then power. Cotto's power wont bother him. He has fought Zab and Baily who are both power punchers but the biggest thing that people are forgetting is that he has sparred alot of rounds with Zoo and Mayorga so Cotto's power wont have a huge effect. He has also sparred with Joppy

              I knew he sparred with Zoo but I didn't know he sparred with Mayo or Joppy. Corley's a solid contender but has come up short in his biggests fights & seems to be declining a bit. If he can take Cotto into the later rounds I think he could make the fight interesting. I just don't see him being able to absorb some of Cotto's body attack. I think Harris would beat Cotto because of his good jab & right hand.

                He sparred with Mayorga and got him ready for the Spinks fight just like he got Zoo ready for the Mitchell fight. He sparred with Joppy because they are both from DC and train in the same gym alot but they are not friends anymore. He came up short against Floyd and Zab but I think that Cotto is a better matchup for him because he's not as fast but more importantly he's not as experienced. Floyd and Zab have fought guys better then Chop but Cotto hasnt

                  Yeah, so many of Cotto's punches landed but were never counted in that match. That was highway robbery at it's best!

                    im glad cotto is fighting corley. its a step up. if a serious corley shows up cotto is going to have his hands full.i'll consider cotto proven if he wins big against corley.
                    vivian has a 9 inch reach advantage over cotto. i'll have to look up previous fight stats on these guys to even guess. vivians faught a lot of guys i dont recognize like in europe and africa.
