    A prime Donald Curry would beat Cotto inside and outside. Curry TKO 10.

    I think Donald's precision straight punch armory (ala Colin Jones fight) would keep Miguel more than occupied early, and as Miguel's effort winds down, Donald looks to strike like the Cobra with that Left hook, not as dramatic as the Milt McCrory blastout, Miguel's is too compact and has not got that "Gangly Vunerability" but perhaps a flooring then with his defences in disarray, and Curry starting a Drumroll of precision punches, The Ref Jumps in to stop proceedings just beating the corners thrown towel, circa 9th perhaps

    For real:nut, Curry would have a field day with Cotto, and beat the hell out of him, Cottos face would look like roast beef after 7 or 8 rounds, Curry by TKO..

    I think prime Curry wins. He would be a little two slick for Cotto. I think he'd control the fight from outside and potshot Cotto on his way in with good combos. The ending would probably be via a late rounds stoppage.

    One of the easier fantasy match-ups to call. Curry before the saunas and dehydration depleted him has an absolute field day with Cotto, beats him to the punch, beats him to a pulp, and beats a stoppage win inside 10 rounds. Cotto has no advantages whatsoever in this one.

    The Lone Star Cobra would beat the tar out of Cotto. He'd box him tormenting him & hurting him till Cotto did his Take a knee & QUIT!!! routine. Or if Don wanted to he'd have KO'd Cotto early
    Absolutely no contest

    Curry destroys him.....peak Curry is 1 of the top 5 peaks ever, its just his peak and prime may be the shortest ever...

    Cotto has shown substance, Curry was a bit too flash for my tastes. I think Miguel could cause the upset here. He is the more stable fighter.

    Curry would be way to much for Cotto. The fight wouldn't go further than 6 or 7 rounds.
