So Cotto's leading candidates are Bradley, Rios and Algieri?

      I think he beats him. Possible schools him. But Cotto is solid.

        Is that you Tim? Bradley vs Cotto is a shit fight. Tim is unranked at JMW so he shouldn't be fighting for a title at MW. Either way Cotto by easy work. If a Provodnikov or a Chaves can bust up/bully Bradley... Cotto will take him out in fantastic fashion. Bradley has no power to keep Cotto off(especially with bigger gloves) plus Bradley's slickness and skills are highly overrated. Bradley's head and BO are his only keys to victory. If Floyd was forced to fight Miguel then Tim has no chance of easily out boxing him. Cotto also has very underrated defense. Bradley is seriously overrated on here. Who has Bradley actually beat that wasn't old or controversial? Devon Alexander? Lamont Peterson? Compare the who's who on Bradley resume to Cotto... not comparable at all.

              I like Cotto but to be honest if this **** is true I can't see how anyone could legitimize these fights. At this point, if he's not fighting GGG or that Cinnamon bun in Alvarez he should just cash in his chips and retire. I mean he's a champion in four weight classes and a lock in the HOF. Why disgrace yourself by lowering the obvious standard?

                Seems like Arum is really trying to push for Bradley to get the shot or Rios, but Algieri could be an option for Cotto all fights would be at a catchweight.

                Roach is pushing for Cotto to fight Khan at 155, or Rios.

                I never saw a problem with Rios, Bradley or Algieri fighting Pacquiao at 147 or above 140 since they are pretty much bigger than him, but going up to 160? come on man, I hope this isn't true at all. If it is I will still watch but the only ones to gain anything from this are Cotto's opponents, its a lose lose for Cotto.

                At least face a junior middleweight guy or middleweight guy for your first title defend at middleweight.
                Brandon Rios fighting for the middleweight championship at a 156 catch weight. Would he make weight doe? lol

                  Arum should hook up Cotto with an undercard slot on Canelo's May 9th card.

                      Please dude, Bradley worked Chaves over. His eye got busted up when the cheater headbutted Bradley (since you wanted to talk about headbutts). He outlanded homeboy by over 100 shots. He won at least 7 or 8 out of the 12 rounds against Chaves.

                      Before the Provo fight, he was up to 180 pounds and had to lose about 20 pounds in two weeks prior to the fight and suffered because of it; he admitted it after the fight. That's why he looked like a different boxer in the JMM fight, he maintained his weight between fights. He would school Ruslan 10-2 in a rematch.

                      Dude is far from overrated, he is rated properly, as a top P4P boxer. Cotto needs to fight legit MW's and quit this cherry picking trash he is trying to pull. If Cotto wants a Bradley fight, he can drop to 150 and make it happen; no title on the line.
