    Cotto has only been stopped by an ATG and extreme Margarito pressure, he would be a clear favourite over Thurman and rightly so.
    wouldnt find out unless the fight got made which is unlikely but surely thurman would be favourite with the bookies at 150

          pac and marg were able to stop cotto because they came forward and was throwing non stop. thurman doesnt fight anything like this lol.

            just cause canelo didnt take him out doesnt mean he cant be taken out. Canelo wobbled him a couple of times aswell. Could easily see a scenario where cotto loses the exchanges in the first round, goes into his shell and just takes a beating and gets pulled out

              very true and i agree with you on that 100%, i just dont see thurman being the one to stop cotto. thurman might beat him, but stopping him? nah...

                cotto might be damage good but skill set, cotto is levels above thurman and any one that thurman has fought so far. this will be the biggest difference. just look at how thurman performs once he steps up in competition. his ko ratio drops dramatically.

                  Thurman Vs Cotto would be good.
                  I don't see Gracia being down for fighting Cotto.

                    Good on Cotto if he dares fight a young undefeated power punching hungry lion.
                    Wouldn't mind him facing Danny either.
