Oba Carr vs Miguel Cotto at 147

Cotto easily.

 

I liked Carr and think he would have been a world champion at 147 in a lot of era's but I don't see him getting past Cotto.

 

Carr may put up a fight, but Cotto ultimately triumphs by dec or late stoppage IMO.

 

That would be a great fight. I think Cotto wins a tough one that’s pretty close on the cards.

 

He was a tough cookie, no doubt about it, but I don't think he was the same class as Cotto.

 

Yeah, Cotto wasn't the sort of guy to make "easy" work of Carr. Quartey, De La Hoya, and Trinidad were all better than Cotto and didn't have an "easy" time.

I think Cotto's power probably gives him an edge here, though, whether it's scoring a knockdown (or knockdowns) or knockout late. It would be tight until then.
