I think its time Cotto tries to avenge the only real loss of Tito's career by fighting Bernard. Its the only way he would cement his name as the all time greatest of puerto rican boxing.
He should attempt the fight at a catchweight of 170 for Hopkin's lightheavyweight crown. I feel Cotto would walk through Hopkin's featherfisted punches and force him to try and headbutt Miguel like he did Tito. Miguel would then smartly uppercut the bigger man. Coupled with a pair of low blows, it would be 2001 all over again for Hopkins, only he would be at the other side of the dirty exchanges.
Cotto gets the decision, returns home a hero and is bestowed "The Peoples Champ" crown by Trinidad in the biggest parade the island has seen since 2001.
