    Marquez too small & golovkin too big. The rest make good match-ups.

        Not every big fight. He didn't lose against Mosley, Margarito and Martinez.

        He gave Mayweather hell even though he lost that one.

        Cotto has done well for himself. I do think he should retire after this Kamegai fight though. We know what happens to boxers when they hang around too long.

          Mosley was always overrated. Martinez and Margarito were good wins. He gave Floyd hell but still lost so yeah

            Cotto is a far better fighter than Lemieux. If all things were equal as far as height and weight, Lemieux wouldn't make it to round 12, But this is not fantasy land, and size does matter. Lemieux is basically a super middle weight cutting weight to make middle weight, and he is bigger than Canelo, who compared to Cotto in the ring, looked like he was a cruiser weight. The Bradley fight needs to happen. Arum continues to get in the way, but hopefully now with GBP, Arums excuse of not enough money to pay both fighters can be remedied. I care very little about the Marquez fight, but Cotto hasn't fought a smaller fighter since Pac in 2009, so I wont begrudge him that. There are no names at junior middleweight that will make a PPV opponent. The only other names are at welterweight, so I expect a catch weight fight with a name welterweight or a catch weight against Billy Joe Saunders. But, as I have said for the least 5 years, Cotto vs. Bradley is a fight I want to see.

                    Martinez is not a "good win" dude. He was shot and crippled. I like Cotto but he never would have beat a good version of Sergio, IMO.
