    Rios is entertaining and all, but he's not and never will be on the same talent level as Cotto. Miguel would just tee off on him.

    Rios is too easy to hit and would be destroyed by Cotto.

    The Cotto that fought Paulie was extremely weight drained, still He could beat Rios by late KO.

    Cotto does pretty much everything better than Rios.

    Cotto makes Rios look like a rookie and batters the **** out of him.

    This will end similar to the Torres fight.

    You pick the very worst 140lb version of Cotto? Dumbass.

    Cotto still wins, too skilled for Bum Bum Rios.

    How the fight goes, depends entirely on the conditioning of Cotto. Rios is a guy that tends to get stronger as the fight goes on, and if Cotto is beginning to tire by round 8 or so, then Rios will have his moments.

    But I’ll go for a Cotto UD win or late stoppage (depending on how well Rios can handle his power). Would have been a hell of a fight.

    Cotto from the Malignaggi fight wouldn't have an easy time with Rios.
