    How would this play out if this was fought today, in your opinion? Styles makes fights, but who would hold the stylistic advantage here?

    Cotton was bothered by pressure fighters... JMM has the.edge in skill and counterpunching, and he certainly wouldn't do worse than he did againt Mayweather, but I don't think Marquez is big enough and strong enough to put the kind of pressure on Cotto he'd need to beat him convincingly.

    I don't think Cotto could make 147 lbs again
