    If pre Margo Cotto jumped to 154, I'd pick Cotto by a SD. Today, Angulo just too strong and hungry. It would be a great fight if it happened. Angulo by late tko.

    At this point, Angulo would wipe the floor with Cotto.

    Cotto outboxes him and wins a decision

    Yuri Foreman is a harder fight

    Angulo would destroy Cotto. Cottos at the the end of career and hes taken a beating along the way. I dont think he'll have the stamina to last the 12 rounds.

    I could see this fight going both ways.... I dont discount that Cotto could actually outbox Angulo for 8 rounds and then survive for the last 4, but i can also see Angulos pressure getting to Cotto and things getting nasty for him... tough fight to call IMO.

    Get your head out of Cotto's crotch for a second and rationalize. Where most fighters fly in a couple of weeks in advance, Angulo didn't get to fly into FLorida until the day of the weigh in. Also, he was recovering from the flu. Something that the HBO commentators alluded DURING the fight. That was not Angulo at 100%. Angulo would give Cotto nightmares as if it was Margarito all over again. Angulo would give Cotto a horrific and brutal beating. I'd fear more for Cotto's family and how they would take watching their daddy taking yet another ass whooping.

    We'll have to see how Cotto looks at 154 against Foreman, but at this point I think Angulo just has too much for him.

    And would you look at that! I'm agreeing with Jacory Harris about something.

    I'd wait and see what Cotto looks like at 154 first

    good posts but i have to disagree and go with cotto. talent wise he's leagues above angulo. i think angulo is a very good pressure fighter but that's as far as i'd go. he's got one plan and one plan only: he showed flaws even in fights he won impressively. i think cotto, even this cotto, even this fat, blown up to 154 cotto still has far too much technique and movement for him. cotto's jab would be ramming down his throat all night. maybe angulo can suddenly learn to slip it but i doubt it
