    this thread isnt for commentary between the ongoing fued but just to see how you would feel about Cotto IF he were to completely beat up on Floyd... whether your a floyd fan or hater or cotto fan or hater..

    assuming Cotto wins like 8-4 or 9-3...

    and please lets avoid this

    "that would never happen"
    "impossible"
    "Floyd is god"
    etc etc

    Be delighted and hope Cotto remains a warrior and doesnt become a businessman exhibition fighter.

    then i'd consider cotto possibly (depending on the results of other top 4 p4pers) P4P number 1 or 2. consider him at the very least top 100 all time, and hope to god he goes on to unify the division, undispute it, and create a long and successful legacy. maybe even hope he considers a shout at 154 - however i'd like to see at least full unification of 147. he doesnt need to defend his titles against random mandatories - just do what haye did and unify the division.

    for the record i feel floyd would teach him something - but that would be how i felt if cotto did win in such a fashion

    cotto would instantly become a hated fighter due to all the irritating nuthuggers who are going to become fans of his.

    I'd say
    #1) Cotto is the best welter of our generation and
    #2) we have to start considering Cotto's place as an ATG.
    *3) since defeating Floyd would pretty much empty the division of credible competition, I would love to see him attempt to go up another division and test his skills.

    just to go the other way...if floyd did the same thing
    #1) He would have cemented his place totally without any question as a top 10 - 20 ATG status

    #2) If he want to jump into that top 5 status, I'd love to see him attempt to go up and beat a middle weight champ who is relevant like Pavlik or whoever the current champ would be at the time.

    id be pretty disapointed becuase i like floyd alot... but i enjoy cotto also.. i would see it as a passing of the torch and it would cement cotto as being the real bad ass most perceive him as

    i would be extremely surprised... becuase i think teh fight is even

    dont worry about Ezekiel Mcfitz, he is a red neck, he isn't educated.
