    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]You gained a lot of credibility in your performance against Miguel Cotto – how good a fighter is he? [/FONT]
    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Miguel Cotto certainly gave me my hardest fight. He is a tough strong fighter and very under rated. He is definitely the only real test for Mayweather at 147 pounds. It would be a great fight and although Mayweather is best in class, Cotto is a tough puncher, high work rate and effective to the body. He hurt me in that fight but I hope I showed I have heart in coming back from the knockdown. I think he is the only current fighter likely to defeat Floyd Mayweather at 147 pounds currently.

    As much of a loudmouth as he seems, Paulie was clearly humbled by his loss to Cotto, and after meeting him at the Taylor-Pavlik II fight, he seems like a down-to-earth and genuinely nice guy.

    I think he talks to sell himself and fights but he always seemed like a humble guy.
