    Cotto would absolutely slaughter Pac. It wouldn't even be entertaining, but actually sad to watch. :deal

    The only thing more true sounding than that to me is the bible... and even then It's a tough call.

    well, there is talk of a pac-dlh so a pac-cotto fight will be much more realistic in terms of a match-up owing that cotto is more of a natural 140-lber while dlh is a natural 147-lber.

    but still cotto is just simply too big for pac. also, a cotto fight doesn't offer the very BIG money that a fight w/ either hatton, dlh or even pbf can give pac so i don't think his team is even considering this fight. but cotto is still an arum fighter so who knows. pac will most probably lose to any of them but at least he will get his biggest payday in return. hopefully, he doesn't incur too much punishment if a fight ever materializes with one of these guys though. but i do envision a fight w/ one of them to be pac's final fight of his career.

    nobody expects pac to win any of these possible match-ups anyway so in terms of legacy a loss to one of them doesn't affect it. but if pac manages to pull a miracle with one of these guys, then that's definitely a whole different story.

    History said it's possible. Armstrong was a natural 126 pounder & yet becomes 135 & 147 Champ & almost captured 154.

    At 140 Pac has the style to beat Hatton. Hatton Moving forward with a short reach, Is just the right Moment to throw that Straight Left to the Chin.

    That straight left won't stop Hatton, sorry. If Tszyu's straight right couldn't, that wont either.

    Slightly better boxer then Pac. Pac's style does not favor him moving up in weight. :deal

    man this is hilarious pac is going to get owned by david diaz and if he squeaks by him he will either run back down to 130 or he will fight campbell at 135 and get knocked out

    Did I say no Limitations??? I'm saying Pac hasn't hit his limitations yet. We will find out in the next years to come. At least Pac is trying to find out unlike Floyd who keep on fighting guys he already beat.
