    He boxes better than those guys at the other side. He has the build and I guess he can wrestle if he wants. Not yet too late to shift career, I guess.

    wrong...is too late...he'll not deal with low kicks or something like that..
    this remember me when Kermit Cintron accepted MMA challenge...but as fact, Cintron was a wrestler.

    He'd murder BJ Penn and St. Pierre...possibly not Anderson Silva though @ 185.

    hmmm 155?

    if he learned some take down and ground defense i could see him smashing Penn, Sherk, and a few others with the 4 oz gloves

    he's making big bucks in boxing tho and doesn't need MMA. still, it's nice to think about



    i wouldn't mind seeing pac, cintron, or mosley try mma either. i bet mosley would catch a lot of guys with his hand speed

    what boxers are trying MMA btw?

    last i heard, Bajado was giving it a try. that or he was messing around in the gym

    i also heard Ricardo Cortes was trying MMA. he boxes out of AKA so he has a ton of good training partners and coaches

    This thread is not a putdown on Cotto. It's actually a compliment on what he can do as a boxer. He can definitely beat some top MMA fighters w/ his skill and power.

    No , he'd get ridiculed like a bum , even against a "can" (an mma can). That is....Only IF the said mma fighter is smart enough to take Cotto on the ground. He'd be like a fish out of water as soon as he'd hit the mat.

    Just like Mercer was against this bum
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DahOLe5z3Ek
    or Skelton
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAIgNhVT3Zs

    But if a mma fighter tries , even dares to play a boxer's game...he'd get raped.
    pretty much like Mercer did yesterday against Sylvia
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCsmh4JDRkE

    it lasted 9 seconds.

    Sylvia wanted to beat mercer at his own game before entering this fight and he paid for it. Mercer may be old but he still has way superior boxing skills.


    Cotto would get raped by anyone who's intelligent enough not to **** with him while standing.

    Pfffft, Cotto doesn't even find it comfortable to clicnh a man. You think he'd actually like rolling around with him half naked on the canvas? I don't think so.
