    I had the 1st fight a draw so a re-match would make sense!

    This would be good, I had it much closer than the judges gave him tbh, I had floyd up by 1 round.

    Zero chance he's fighting Floyd again this year.

    if given a choice, i would rather watch floyd-guerrero than a floyd-cotto rerun.

    First fight wasnt close enough for a rematch, but this just shows you how stale boxing is right now that this even considered viable.

    Pac - Cotto 2 is even worse.

    Cotto is running out of options. Manny and him wont agree on a weight. Its either Saul or Mayweather. Martinez at 154 would be nice, but i doubt that´s happening.

    Maybe winner of Vanes-Lara. Not much money in that though.

    Cotto doesn't have the engine to beat Floyd.

    :good Good point. I was saying that he gassed out during the first fight. He doesn't have the stamina to maintain the offense he needs to beat Floyd. This was a concern going into the fight . I thought he looked in better shape against Margarito . He looked slow against Floyd.

    i think floyd-cotto 2 result would be the same, i don't think the love that was forced out of floyd while in jail affected him.
