    LOL.

    Miguel is the man, but he gets abused by the Cobra. Froch walks him down and rolls right through him.

        Cotto's way too small for SMW. He stepped in the ring weighing 161 against Martinez.

          No, not at all. Segio is a small MW. He could easily have gotten down to 154 lbs. and usually weighs about 2-4 lbs. under the MW limit. Sergio could not go to SMW, even in his prime. He was more likely to go to 154.

          Cotto walks around at 158 lbs. Froch walks around at 185 lbs. A fight at 168 lbs. would be disastrous for Cotto. I like Cotto but there are limits to how far (weight-wise that he can move up). Remember he only weighed 155 for the Sergio fight.

          Come fight night Cotto would be maybe 161-163 lbs max and Froch would be 180-182 lbs.

          That would be asking an awful lot from Cotto. Cotto is a marketing genius and would never take this fight. By beating Sergio, he earned 2-3 more HUGE paydays in the $15-25 million range.

              People want to see Cotto get hurt badly. GGG? Froch? Who else, Kovalev?

                Good post.

                I'm not sure why all the hatred for Cotto/

                He is a WARRIOR.

                He beat Sergio, easily.

                I picked Sergio to win and am a huge Sergio fan but Cotto looked great. He is a JMW who moved up 1 whole lb. to take on Sergio. He is MW Champ now, so the GGG fight is in his weight class but Cotto is not going over 156-157 lbs, period. He doesn't owe anyone a fight over the MW limit.

                  Froch walks around at 175, usually fights at 172-173.

                  You are right though, just way too big for Miguel. His come forward style would make the size difference even worse for Cotto.

                    Silly fight.

                    It would look ****ing ****** as well with Froch being a head taller.

                    A better match-up which could happen but would still look silly is Cotto vs Martin Murray. You would really see how far Cotto's skills could take him against a big middleweight albeit one that is not a concussive puncher.

                    Froch is obviously too big and could probably do everything wrong and still KO Cotto.

                      He goes on a 2 fight win streak against a nobody and a 40 year old with blown out knees and he's ready to KO Froch, Ward, Wladimir, Kovalev, Hopkins, etc

                      This site has to be predominantly teenagers
                      You're mad at Cotto for something huh? He must've did something to you for all your hating. Did you ask his gay step-son on a date and Cotto said no because you're too ugly even for his gay step-son?
