    Same as this

    I would like him to have another fight or two with Manny Steward against reasonable opposistion. Before looking for the massive fights again.

    Would love to see him get revenge on Margarito.

    A fight with Chavez jr seems like a logical next fight. It's a fight he should win comfortably and would allow him and Steward to tweak the things they've been working on.

    Would also be Mexico vs Perto Rico so would sell on a massive scale.

    Pac at 154 for the money.
    Paul Wiulliams or Sergio Martinez for the prestige and legitimacy.

    People keep talkin about Berto, i think Berto needs to do a bit more before fighting someone like Cotto. Berto looked shite against Quintana lets be honest and would get caught to many times if he fought Cotto. Plus Cotto gets questioned when he fights fighters who throw constant punches not fighters who are patient in throwing punches (i.e. yuri foreman is a patient puncher, moves away then comes in a throws a couple before again doing the same thing).

    As for the cotto going back to 147, thats stupid. You know he walks at a higher weight generally right. He looked ripped for a 154 meaning he looked good at that weight so he dont need to drain down. If anyone wants to fight him from the welterweight division, they need to step up considering he has a higher weight division belt.

    That's the point you doof. Cotto is still on the rebound after the devastating Pacquiao fight so throw him an easy fight against Berto. Let him destroy Berto and set himself up for a big pay day fight later on.
    How is that stupid you idiot? Cotto looks ripped at 154 but he also clearly looks very small for the weight division. That may cost him when facing better opposition later on.
    Say what?! You honestly think that one fight against a less than stellar Yuri Foreman proves that Cotto is ready to face two men which completely oblitered him in the last couple of years?! :patsch Talk about an over-reaction. Cotto takes out a B-/C+ fighter and according to you he's all of a sudden ready to take on everyone at 154 including Margarito and Manny Pacquiao? :nut

    PW so people can see how overrated Williams really is.

    Throwing a 1000 arm punches wont be enough to keep Cotto off of him.

    Spinks is a good fight because it will give Manny another chance to work with him. Id like to see him fight paul williams but he has to tighten up his defense.

    Martinez is a terrible matchup for him style wise, he will never beat him, ever. He would probably loose to williams but i think its the last "Big" fight out there for him and I think he should go for it

    I honestly think a rematch is in order. Foreman earned it.

    I think he should campaign with stewart for a year or two agains decent fighters so he can get that fire back under him, berto could be next or even cintron but i dont think miguel plans on staying in the ring for long...his promotional company is taking off,something that was really needed in PR and i think he said so himself during the final presser that he was planing his retirement soon.

    Martinez of course. The guy has half a step in the division and he holds a title. That means a good title unification, that Martinez will cash in but has something else to think about, and then it's not as bad a match-up as people think, not compared with Williams. No reason to fight Cintron or other meaningless names and no reason to go down to 147 if not to fight Mayweather.
