      He already has a permanently damaged chin.

      There is no recovery from that.

      I would love for Cotto to be the one to put the final nail in the coffin of Khan's sad boxing career.

        Cotto drinks way to much to ever make a healthy 147lb weight limit. I wonder where he would be at today if he would've stayed at 147...

          Cotto cannot make 147 ever again , once you allow the body to expand after years of restraining it will never go back , Manny cant go to 140 never can Floyd even though the hype say they can but it would kill them to do it , these guys are not 20 yrs old any more .

              Miguel Cotto is a future hall-of-famer, and one of the best of his era. Maybe not an all-time great, but certainly one of the top fighters of the past decade.
              Any boxing fan knows Cotto's career is coming to a close. He has been in so many entertaining brawls with the likes of Margarito, Torres, Corley, Floyd, Manny, Mayorga, Trout, Judah, Mosley, Maussa and Clottey.
              For the last few years, ever since Cotto was stopped by Manny, he has been campaigning at 154. Rumor has it that he is the front runner for a Canelo fight later this year. Yes, that would be a huge PPV event and a nice payday for Cotto, but realistically he has little to no chance against a bigger, younger power-puncher such as Canelo.
              Instead of the Canelo fight, i suggest Cotto should move to welter. The match-ups there are huge for him, and he won't be the smaller guy in every fight.
              Can you imagine: Cotto-Maidana
              Cotto-Ortiz
              Cotto- Guerroro
              Cotto-Thurman
              Cotto-Berto
              Cotto-khan
              Cotto- Alexander (Yes, I think Cotto could be one of the few fighters to put Alexander in an exciting fight)

              I would favor Cotto over all of those fighters and if he could beat two of them that would lead him to huge fights like a possible Floyd or Manny rematch, or even better: Cotto-Broner
              Cotto-Bradley
              Cotto-Marquez

              All these fights mentioned would be huge money fights and Cotto would not have to be a sacrificial lamb like he would in a Canelo fight.

              What do you guys think of my plan of Cotto going to welter??

              It's clearly the best move he could make..But Cotto has to stop being lazy in order for it to be successful..

                  Ideally it would be a wise choice. However I doubt he'll be able to make 47 comfortably.

                      Well Floyd fans seem to believe that his best weight is at 154, the same weight where he was barely able to put away a one legged bum, went life and death with MMA star Ricardo Mayorga, was barely able (with the aid of the doctor) to stop a shot to death Margarito, and lost to Mayweather and Trout. That's his best weight, so no, he should stay at 154 where he's been on that incredible reign.
