      Is Cotto faster than Jr.? Yes, by a solid margin.

      Is he better technically? By leaps and bounds.

      Does he have a higher ring IQ? Absolutely.

      Is he ten times the fighter Jr. will ever be? Probably.

      Does he hit harder? NO WAY.

        I tend not to take things Roach says seriously anymore.

            Jr may hit harder but Cotto is the better puncher. If he gets a chance to land on Sergio enough he will definitely leave his mark. Jr hurting Martinez was more to do with it being in the last round when he was exhausted.

              I dont understand why people on this site always think size equals power. Technique of the punch is more important than weight. Lets say that punching power is determined by efficeincy of a fighters punching technique. A boxer like Cotto has superb punching technique , causing his effieciency to be around 70%, While Chavez jr is below 40%. This means that even though Chavez jr outweighs cotto by almost 40 lbs, Cotto will in fact punch harder.

              Check out power punchers like Mathysee, golovkin, Kovalev and Superman Stevenson. Their punching efficiency is probably close to 100%. This is why i would bet hard earned money that Golovkin and Kovalev punch harder than all cruiser weights.

              More weight means that you will probably take a punch better, it does not always mean that you will punch better.

              Did you see how badly bellew got KO'ed by Stevenson, i bet Stevenson would do thesame if he hit bellew again who is at cruiser weight now.

                  I respect your opinion, but that's not happening. Now something that will probably happens is that Cotto breaks Martinrz ribs or something. Martinez is a great fighter but hes not Knocking Cotto out. I got Cotto winning 8 rounds of the fight.

                      No chance. Big Margarito said Cotto hits like a girl.
