2007 Cotto VS 2013 Marquez. approx. 140-143 pounds

Cotto can box with slow MARQUEZ.

 

Marques destroys KNEEguel, regardless of weight.

 

Riods or not Riods...that is the question.

 

Cotto wrecks him.

 

Great fight at 140 147 versions of both...cotto would wear him down ko each time

 

Would have been a great fight, Cotto would have to come forward like a relentless bull but Marquez would be countering/touching him all night, I take Marquez by late stoppage with a badly busted up Cotto having nothing left.

 

Would have been a very big challenge for Marquez BUT he also throws an excellent left hook to the body (as could be witnessed lastnight) aswel as a thunderous overhand right hand & most effectively (against Cotto) would have been his 45 degree uppercut as Bradley called it, remember Margarito broke Cotto's nose with an uppercut in the 5th & Cotto has always been open for an uppercut & Marquez uppercut is one of the best in the business.

In short, Cotto wouldn't be landing that shot much at all as he's be eating right hands & uppercuts trying to get into position to deliver it.
Marquez would most likely get knocked down though as he always does lol.

 

This is a dream fight of mine...

 

Marquez by KO

 

:deal

 

Cotto by ass whuppin.

 

Cotto was a beast in his pomp at Light-Welter/Welter. I think he would grind JMM down and poss stop him late.
