Miguel Cotto vs. Juan Manuel Marquez @145

[MarkPosadas26]

Who are you picking and why?

[The Problem Child]

Again...

Marquez WITHOUT Memo: Cotto wins via late stoppage, just too strong at WW.

Marquez WITH Memo: Marquez wins a very close decision and drops Cotto a few times.

[ColdBlooded]

Tough call. Marquez lost to Bradley, but Cotto isn't as fast or as hard to hit cleanly as Bradley. If Cotto presses Marquez, Marrquez's probably drops and maybe stops Cotto with countershots. Marquez really developed his power at welterweight. On the other hand, if Cotto boxes on the backfoot, he could possibly win a decision. But stylistically, not a great fight for Cotto. He'd be up against a guy who feasts on fighters who come forward and has the skills to outbox him.

one of my dream fights..... i still today wish that cotto could make 147 to fight JMM... would buy instantly.

also cotto-hatton and jmm-hatton... shame we never got to see!

[sugarsmosley]

JMM-Cotto woulda been last era of tito-DLH

[JaYDeuce11]

Marquez wants his 5th weight class, go and chase Cotto if he beats Martinez!
Cottos not that fast anyway, so Marquez would be able to keep up especially with his "biologist"

i think bradley-cotto would be fkin sick

me too, sleeper fight not many ppl mentioned during the time Tim was in contract talks.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Cotto would beat the hell out of jmm... Size skill and power would be too much down the stretch

[LA_2_Vegas]

at 145 I think go with Cotto. I think JMM takes one too many left hooks from Cotto and is decked, hard to make the comeback because of Cotto's jab...loses SD.
