    Thatd be a nice scrap with Cotto dominating and KO Lemieux. Hope it happens as a set up for the Canelo rematch.

    Not sure why Cotto is still fighting, especially at middleweight. The guy was never even a proper 154 fighter let alone 160.

    The guy has nothing to prove.

    I would be surprised if that came off, that is too much for Cotto

    He did beat the living poop out of both Martinez and Daniel Geale

    Is Daniel Geale much lower than David Lemieux?

    A gimp and a corpse.

    And David hits roughly 3000x's harder than Geale, and has a far better chin.

    I wouldn't even say Geale is lower than Lemieux, I just don't know why Cotto is still campaigning. If he's going to have one last throw at the dice at least make an effort to fight Marquez or Bradley at a lower weight or something. Who really cares if he fights Lemieux, what does it even mean?

    There are levels to this thing moron. DL can't even carry Cotto's jock strap.

    I bet you also picked Daniel Geale to blow Cotto away, didn't you.

    That would be a dangerous fight for Cotto. Cotto can outbox him in spots but I'm not sure he can overcome the disparity in youth and power of Lemieux.
    Nobody can critize Cotto for this choice if it's at 160. Leumiux is a prime top 5 middleweight.
    Lemieux by decision.

    Geale would be stretchered out in a neckbrace if he ever got in the ring with Lemiuex.
