I voted Lara on points in a close but clear win. Lara is bigger than Cotto and closer to being a middleweight. Lara is very good but Cotto has the power and speed and skills to make it a close fight. I thought Canelo beat Lara in a close fight but I don't think Cotto is as good as Canelo or Lara.Comment

Cotto lost to Trout and we all know how Lara made trout look out of his league, thats the only opponent they have in common not enough to really make a prediction. 160 Cotto has Maravilla on his resume Lara has never been to 160 very hard to say what would happen I never discount Cotto.Comment

Lara...COMFORTABLE UD!
Cotto still struggles with Skilled Boxers...ALWAYS HAS AND ALWAYS WILL! He just haven't fought one since Trout!
I think Lara just fights off of his Back Foot and counters Cotto ALL NIGHT! Cotto don't have the Stamina to chase Lara ALL NIGHT! Lara has more LEGS than Mayweather at this point in both fighters Career so trapping him and getting in in the Corner and against the Ropes like he did Mayweather is going to be much Harder to do again Lara. Also take into consideration Lara is not only BIGGER THAT MAYWEATHER but he also has some POP in that Left HandComment

Tough one to call, Lara is a bigger guy with a dangerous left and excellent mobility but Cotto cuts the ring off so well and is in fine punching form right now... I edge with Cotto and a stoppage is within reason I feel
Cotto vs Canelo is the bigger fight and also the better fight, and it's equally difficult to predict but I like Miguel's more fluid style to triumph, Saul has some slow feet despite having those rapid fistsComment
