Cotto will never win his 40th fight unless he fights a tune up.

    Cotto is a live dog against Canelo and GGG. I'm honestly almost 50-50 with both fights. If Cotto were still in his perceived prime I bet nobody would be writing him off this easy especially against Canelo. Canelo isn't a better fighter in any facet compared to Cotto he's just young and fresher. GGG hasn't fought any fighter even close to Cotto in the skill and experience department... hell he's yet to beat imo a b class fighter. 160 is a **** division and risk vs reward is why GGG hasn't had imo a legit test to show me he's the real deal. GGG's power is legit but I want to see him fight guys like Cotto, Canelo, Lara, Ward, Froch, etc...

      Seriously 40th win? These guys are making multi million dollar decisions. Boxing today is business and that explains everything. The rest is hyperbole.

        It's not a triangle theory here. Bradley wouldn't approach a fight with cotto how he fought provodnikov. He'd use his boxing skills and muscle him on the inside. No way cotto ko/tko's him.

          Lmao I guess being concussed and almost stopped isn't getting your ass whooped. Bradley got hospitalized by Pac and Provo... Cotto at a higher weight finally gets the stoppage. Tim is not faster than Floyd and Miguel gave Floyd a tough fight. Bradley is way overrated by some on here. Cotto is not old small Marquez... Miguel cut the ring off on Floyd for ****s sake. Bradley gets walked down and through... he hits like a woman. Bradley is very sloppy with his punches I see nothing he does that troubles Cotto.

            I actually rewatched that Provo fight yesterday and that fight is the definition of an ass kicking. He was out on his feet in rounds 1,2 and 12. Absolute beating.

              No he didn't. He only won round 6 and round 8. Winning 2 rounds against Floyd doesn't mean a damn thing. Mosely and Castillo accomplished more against Floyd than Cotto did. Mosely mainly because of the one round where people thought he had him.

                Cotto will trade with Canelo until he gets badly hurt then he will move and box. It's been a while since Miguel has fought a puncher like Canelo. Maybe since the Pac fight. I'm not sure if he can take the punches or not. If he can then he will win. He has the better boxing ability and their stamina is equally average.

                  How can Tim bully the bigger, tougher, stronger, more experienced fighter at a weight he's yet to compete at? Name a fighter that out boxed Cotto with no power and don't say Floyd. If prime Mosley couldn't body Cotto... **** it I quit. We're both entitled to our own opinion. Cotto will retire a HOFer who fought damn near everyone.

                    I Like Cotto. Im a fan. hes a tough as nails dude. He fights until hes beat down or cant go anymore. But i dont think he gets by GGG. Thats a slugfest he wont win. Canelo hand speed will be a factor for Cotto. Hes strong and young and i feel Cotto will come out short on the exchanges. Im up in the air on this one still. Leaning towards Canelo a bit though!

                      I think he just wants to keep fighting until he can't go anymore. That is a bad approach for a career that should be close to ending.
