If Floyd beats Cotto now, the win would be immense.

    3 weight lineal champion simultaneously, Cotto is looking SUPERB right now.

    :hammertime.

    Maywether UD. Light work. He wouldn't trade with Cotto at 160 and dance to a comfortable decision.

    He would be a paper champ. If he beats GGG it will mean something. If he beats Cotto it won't mean ****, he's already bested him. No need for a rematch.

    I don't think so man

    Cotto was in a bad place in his career when he fought Mayweather and still gave him a tough fight

    This time he will edge it

    What if Cotto beat Floyd? The first fight was very competitive and one of Floyd's most challenging fights especially from a physical standpoint. Floyd might want to go for the Lineal strap that Miguel is holding. It might be the biggest fight out there now that the PAC rematch is out of question until 2016. If Cotto actually beat Floyd it would open up a trilogy for Cotto and Floyd....open up the rematch between Manny and Cotto and create a TRI-bunal network of Ultra superstas between Floyd, Manny and Miguel. Kind of exciting time for boxing with Cotto making some noise.

    I'm not

    I'm just trying to give some context

    I still consider that win over Cotto to be a very good win for Mayweather

    I think Floyd wins comfortably again.
