    Do not care about that fight, if Happens, I believe not, will be a stay busy fight with Cotto winning by UD. Rubio can hit but is not fast enough to catch Cotto clean.

    I believe Cotto will move down to fight Canelo, Floyd, Bradley or other titlist at 154 lbs. The only fight I can see Cotto accepting is a good monetary fight against Golovkin.

    Plenty of people would watch it but will HBO take it?

    If for some reason a big PPV fight falls apart (Canelo, Golovkin) this or Martin Murray would be a great regular HBO fight while we wait for a superfight in 2015

    But there are SOOOOOOOOO many better fights. Cotto should be riding this momentum like no ones business.

    I doubt it happens, but if it does Rubio will KO Cotto.

    I think Cotto overwhelms him, but Rubio is a pretty big guy. Boy, did he get taken out by Jantuah, though. Hard KO.
