will cotto's success continue at 147?

[omegamale]

do you guys think cotto's success will continue in the welterweight division? 140 is in no shape or form as competetive as 147. look what happened when hatton moved up. and i don't think that was because it was his first fight. i think collazo would give him problems no matter when he would have faced him. i know it was a lot of hype surrounding cotto before but their aint no pauli's at the top in 147. list of guys i can't see him getting past. mayweather, margarito, judah, paul williams, collazo, and baldamir. truthfully i can't even see him getting past clottey.

making 147 should be pretty easy for cotto cuz he cuts so much weight to make 140. and when he rehydrates, he weighs as much as a SMW.

Cotto Wrecks Himself To Make 140 Whereas Hatton Im Informed Could Of Made 140 Easily.......so They Are Different, Cotto Is Moving Up Because He Physically Needs To....hatton Moved Up Because Tv Forced Him To They Say.........something Wasnt Right With Hatton Against Collazo, He Just Looked Quickly 'blown Up' And Slow As A Result....cotto Though Will Be Much Stronger At Welterweight, Faster, More Fluid, And I Think He Will Emerge As The Dominant Welterweight.....systematically Breaking Opponents Apart, But Not Being Jaded Anymore..!

maybe but i think hatton would beat cotto. i mean i think cotto is a good fighter but with all this talent piled up in one division i just don't know. who do you think cotto would beat from the list i made?

I think if anything it will make him stronger. Hes still yet to hit the prime of his career.

I THINK HE WILL EMERGE AS THE DOMINANT WELTERWEIGHT.....

[TheEvilSaint]

i wonder if adding some weight and being in a heavier weight class might fix his chin a little...

if it does, he could really dominate the WW division.

[trips420]

Cotto Has alot of skill and power but that chin isnt going to hold up against some of the big punchers at welter.

[maxorido]

nope. you've got guys like floyd,judah,baldy,collazo,marg,mosley etc. who will beat him.

He still looked very strong and did a lot of damage to an elusive boxer in Malignaggi, and Cotto REALLY struggled with the weight for that fight. Just having that extra added pressure of not having to struggle for weight alleviated may make him more dangerous, or he may find it hard going like Hatton did. I think he has no choice but to find out, though, as 140 is not an option for him for even one more fight I feel.
