Juan Diaz vs. Miguel Cotto...Who wins and why?

Curious as to how everyone thinks this fight goes down:think
Cotto has a 1" height advantage with both having equal reach
I'm sure many will totally write off Diaz :-(
Honestly their 2 of my favorite fighters and a potential match isn't to far out of the realm of possibility

Personally I could see it going either way.....Either being won by Cottos balance and power, or being won by Diaz's constant pressure, combos and phenominal workrate

I debated on whether to specify a weight, however realistically the fight would take place down the road at 147(if ever)

Your thoughts mates:think

 

Yea I like both quite a bit...It could be fight of the century:yep I would'nt write off Juan so easily....he's very resilient:deal and usually always nullifies his opponents punches by returning fire twice as hard and with twice as many punches.....How would Cotto be different??

I'm almost leaning towards a UD for Diaz

 

Not really mate...lets remember Juan just has to bust 140 to be a WW...so 6 pounds and he's fat?? doesnt make sense at all sorry:-(
You'd be amazed how easy it would be with a little extra weight lifting and the proper diet it would be a breeze for Juan:deal

 

Fair enough....however bare in mind that Diazs punching power is slightly underrated...he's fought a few tough chinned *******s:deal Making a few champions quit says something too as champions don't quit on there stool from workrate alone:deal ...theres enough power
I also feel that Diaz would carry average power to WW, along with the frightening workrate, very accurate punching(in combos mostly)...I just see it being very difficult for Cotto to overcome this

 

To keep it somewhat realistic its at WW...bear in mind Juan only needs to gain 6 pounds :deal
Need we remember Cotto being stunned by Malignaggi?? Well in case you missed it..it happened......When was the last time Malignaggi threw 120 punches in the 12th round of a brawl??
You see where I'm going here?
