Cotto No.1 without the PBF fight?

I think if Mayweather decides to fight De La Hoya then Hatton in his next two fights, while Cotto fights Margarito then another good fighter, then as long as Cotto wins his fights he will be p4p number #1 - even if Mayweather wins both of his fights by KO.
If Mayweather takes this route then he could be in danger of being taken over by any of Cotto, Pacquiao or Calzaghe and possibly all of them.

 

IF Cotto Beats Margarito by KO... I would say yes.

 

Umm, Cotto is ranked no.5 p4p. He's going to need some big wins or some people to lose/retire before he rises to no.1

 

if pbf retires or doesn't have any meaningful fights then joe calzaghe or manny pacquaio will be no.1

 

He would have to beat Margarito, Clottey and Williams/Berto IMO. And that still depends who Pac and Calzaghe beats.

 

Where has this Hatton rumor come up from? I haven't seen anything saying Mayweather wants a Hatton rematch besides Hatton himself. I can understand the DLH fight, make 25-30 million in a warm up fight after taking 10 months off from boxing.

 

o ya u forgot to mention king kong and hillery cliton..:nut

 

simply - no!

 

I think if Cotto beats someone like Pavlik or Klitschko, then he'd have to be considered No 1 P4P.

 

I'll tell you what . . .

PBF can remain a paper #1 title holder until he retires . . . who cares?

Cotto is the man at 147 if he doesn't fight him. Cotto if he wins against Margo . . . will have officially beaten the #2, #3, #5 and #6 fighters in the 147 lbs top ten list.

:yep :hi:

 

yea 3 or 4 big wins and he can be p4p #1 but right now he is trailing Floyd and Pac heavily
