    Cotto wins this fight and it is a learning experience for Berto.

    Berto gets waxed inside 6 rounds. Cotto is hungry to be back on top of the division and he will dominate Berto if they fought right now.

    Berto is not a bum. Cotto would find tougher sledding than you guys realize. After Berto tags his ass with a few combinations, Cotto will be on his bike like he always does when he faces someone with a little power.

    Cotto UD.

    I too think Berto would be at least a bit of a challenge to Cotto, maybe even give him hell. I'd still go with Cotto.

    Cotto stops him to the body, much the way he did Quintana.

    And Berto seemed utterly vulnerable and helpless every time Collazo jumped inside and started wailing away. I mean UTTERLY. He was a pathetic figure once he got put on the inside - didn't know what the **** to do.

    I'd say the lightning fast powershots don't seem to be Cotto's favorite. Those have hurt him consistently throughout his career. What are you talking about though, WWM?

    Some of you guys forget that Berto is extremely fast and hits very hard, and that Miguel Cotto is not the most durable guy. This is a good match up, however I did vote Cotto by TKO but I think it is a dangerous first couple rounds for Cotto.
