    I think Cotto needs some more seasoning before he goes after Gatti. A Hatton/Cotto fight is more realistic at present . . . well just my point of view.

      Point respected...I still think that Cotto would annihilate him right now. Cotto should probably take another preparation fight before he goes after the big dogs however.

        That's right That's exactly what I'm saying . . . just to ensure that he'll be much prepared to meet the big old dog. Getting one or two more fights against named opponents behind Gatti will set up a big stage for that GRAND BRAWL. Fighters build up confidence through experience . . . and there's no substitute for that.

          Hey you guys making it sound like Cotto would EASILY burn through Gatti. First off, has Cotto been up against HARD punching fighters? How about, how has he been fully tested with his will or heart? We sure know Gatti will get up and keep going. Gatti also punches with all his power and can go a full fight like that. Do you think Gatti will want to let a young newcomer take his place? I think Gatti will want to make a statement that even though he's the older, he still has the heart and we will definitely see some fireworks. Can't wait for a match like that to come along

            No . . . no . . . friend it may sound just like that but what you are saying is exactly what I mean. Cotto still needs seasoning, establish himself fight the guys, around Gatti so he'll get the experience that he needs before he go after the MAIN MAN. I like both fighters and the last thing I want to see is another wasted talent going down to the drain.


            If ever Cotto decides to go for Gatti at anytime he better make sure he is REALLY READY.

              Gatti may be tough in the ring but IMO hes a ***** for running from Floyd

                Not happy bout this at all. Gatti should go for Pretty boy now, Leija is over the hill and even after Gatti beats him hes gonna have 2 fight him again before Floyd cuz of the re-match clause. Aaaarrrrggggggghhhh, piss me off.

                  The same people that are saying Gatti will easily beat Leija are probably the same people that thought the old Pro Leija had no shot against a rising prospect in Bojado.When will you all ever learn?

                    Gatti via tko..

                    im gonna second that.
