    Give him an easier touch like Martirosyan or the winner of Bundrage-Spinks 2 before putting him back in with the top guys again.

    I agree that was the best Cotto I have ever seen step into the ring. Pedro Diaz seems like one heck of a trainer.

    Glad to hear this. Any boxing fan should be happy that a guy like Cotto is going to be around for a few years yet.

    Let him have whomever he wants next (even Pac but at a reasonable weight). He's earned it.

    Boxing is the only sport in which we often wish our favorites would retire. As a huge Cotto fan, I had that feeling last summer. However, he looks great and while I don't want to see him against Martinez right now, I am confident I will enjoy his last few fights.

    War Cotto.

    Cotto-Alvarez
    Cotto-Kirkland

    Both would be great fights. I think he smashes both of them.

    How many WBA Jr. Middleweight champions is there???
    (including Floyd's "Super" champion label)

    Maybe Cotto can be thrown in there Vs. one of them.
    (ain't there like a regular & interim champ at the same time)

    Something like Trout & Mundine...
    Cotto could beat both in one day.

    Cotto vs. Canelo for the Junior Middleweight championship (ranked 1 and 2 last I checked the RING). Great fight.

    However, the kid may still need a couple of years of softer touches before he is ready. Cotto vs. anyone from the top 10 would be good with me.

    Cotto - Mundine would be nice as a return fight in the fall
