    I just don't like Cotto at 154. Foreman was strategically chosen as a fighter who does not have the punch to hurt Cotto. It was a good performance but I still don't like his long-term prospects in the division. How exactly is he gonna get by any of these guys:


    1.PW
    2.SM
    3.Angulo
    4. Kirkland

    I don't see Cotto beating any of these. He might decision a Cintron or a Spinks or a Dzinziruk but I don't see him hanging with the those four dudes I mentioned, despite Cotto being technically superior to an Angulo or to a Kirkland.

    I agree easy fight first take on Chavez Jr. then
    Pac/Floyd @ 147
    Martinez/Angulo @ 154

    Depending on how long a break he takes, he could conceivably fight Angulo at the end of the year. A step up in competition that would really gauge how well Cotto adheres to Manny's training

    Angulo is trash and is easy to outbox. Aslong as Cotto circles him and jabs like Cintron did to him, Cotto will get the decision easily. Kirkland has been inactive for too long and was said to grown completely out of shape while inside and without even waiting for his comeback you already think hes a lock to beat Cotto?

    I voted Williams. Cotto needs to show me more @ 154 this seemed like a "tune-up."


    I'd like to see Cintron though. Beat some heart into "The Frog."

    Might be Pac again. Afterall, Void will retire rather than fight Pac.
