    Any thoughts on who wins this barnburner of a fight at 140? The punching power of Cotto against the blistering hand speed of Meldrick Taylor. I think it's a close call but what a match up it would be.

    Taylor UD. But, a great fight.

    Probably Meldrick Taylor by decision but it’s not something I’m confident enough of to bet money on
