    Tito would beat the **** out of Cotto, Hopkins and Winky were much bigger fighters who were both also much better than Cotto.

    I agree with this. I think this more improved version of this Cotto would beat him. Great fight though.

    This. They'd have to peel Cotto off of the canvas as though he was a mauve 70's wallpaper.

    Tito was a bigger and better fighter than Cotto.

    Cotto is too defensively flawed to avoid Trinidad's bombs, he has an okay chin but nothing special, his stamina is inferior to Tito's as well. Tito is known more as a left hooker, with also a good rstraight right hand, but he also could mix in some uppercuts at times, which Cotto is most vulnerable to. Trinidad also had an underrated jab and a sizeable reach advantage on Cotto.

    This would get real ugly for Miguel, at 154 or 147.
