    If Pacman KO's Cotto in devastating fashion, you still think PBF would want to face Pacman instead of Cotto?

    You just reiterated what I said, but in a different way.

    He would rather beat Pac because of the P4P status.
    He would rather face Cotto because it's a better stylistic match-up.

    I think for the money it would be pac, but who he really would rather face I say Cotto, Floyd has trouble with guys that have quick hands and are leftys, Judah and Corley come to mind.

    Floyd would have to be patient early on. The main danger in my mind, would be Pac connecting something huge early.

    Ehhhh... more I consider it, overall Cotto is easier for Floyd, but I still think he'd rather face Pac, since Pac has taken number one in his absence. Beating Arum's top cash cow would bring a lot of satisfaction as well.

    No... Pac would. Pac is a stylistic nightmare for Floyd.

    Cotto is more conventional, thus being a better fit for PBF's style.

    That would be awesome, but nuts for Floyd. That's a fight all about making history there.

    But Floyd is a stylistic nightmare for Pac as well.

    More weapons than Cotto. Last time I checked all Pac had was the left and newly aquired right hook. When Pac faces fighters who could deal with his speed (EM1;JMM) he looks rather ordinary.
