actually I voted for decision. I thought about it a second longer and think Meldrick stops Cotto on cuts and TKO. Cotto is not at the Meldrick,Pacman, level. He is good, but not that level. Meldrick would have won on speed and cut up Cotto and won.

Meldrick Taylor beats him on speed alone.

Taylor at 140.

To think he's still younger than Hopkins, boxing is such a dangerous sport.

Taylor at 140 wins.

At 147, Cotto beats any version of Taylor except maybe the one who beat Aaron Davis. Taylor fought really well that night.

Both guys would get banged up pretty good, it'd be a tough grueling fight.

Interesting. Cotto probably goes down at least once, but I think people forget how resilient and ferocious he was at 140.

I think Taylor decisions Cotto with several rough spots for both fighters during the bout, with Cotto being stunned several times during the duration.

I don't think he'd get dropped. If Taylor were to put Cotto on the canvas it'd probably be an accumulation of shots that would force Miguel to take a bit of a break, but I think he stays on his feet the whole way through. Taylor would outland him by quite a bit though. Good, bruising kind of fight.

Well if Cotto thought Pacquiao was fast, imagine him in with Taylor. Taylor would land multiple combinations at will. Cotto's game and will win a few rounds but is ultimately chopped up by the blazing hands of Taylor.
