    A lot of people are dogging Mayweather for not fighting Cotto.

    But seriously, would Cotto pose more problems for Floyd than Oscar? Oscar is taller, longer reach, and at this stage, probably stronger than Cotto. I honestly don't see Cotto giving Floyd as many problems as Oscar today. Cotto is a very good fighter, but physically and stylistically, I don't think he is as dangerous as Oscar.

    I think DLH can beat Cotto but Cotto can beat Mayweather. I think it comes down to styles. DLH/Mayweather is a bad matchup and a technical sparring session with Mayweather coming out on top. I think Oscar/Cotto leans more to Oscar. But I see Cotto perhaps breaking one or two of Mayweather's ribs, in particular the way Mayweather exposes his side when covering up. Think of the thunderous punches Mayweather will take to the ribs using that defence against Cotto. I don't see DLH hurting Mayweather but I do see Cotto seriously hurting him.

    Probably the same problem as DLH posed.

    I think Oscar will win more rounds, but Cotto will make Floyd give more, and he'll inflict more damage.

    Cotto is going to knockout PBF ... then he's going to knockout Spinks ... and cap off that moraculous run by knocking out Pavlik with one punch.

    For starters he won't be gassed after 5 rounds.

    Cotto is the best Puerto Rican boxer even and the p4p best in the world ... no one stands a chance ... he has a better resume than any fighter in the WW division ... he's so fast ... so strong ... so complete ... PBF doesn't know what he's in for ...

    Cotto is the best fighter that PBF has ever seen ...

    Someone's "0" must go and i'm predicting that its going to be Mayweathers ... who cares that he's been a champ for over 10 yrs ... 5 division world champion ... and has fought a numerous amount of reigning champions.

    Cotto showed against a 36yr old Mosley and a beaten Judah ... that he has the tools to beat Mayweather ... this is the truth ...

    Cotto beat Malignaggi, Torres, N'dou, Corley, and Urkal ... who at the time they fought were all top 10 p4p and since losing to Cotto have went on to do big things.

    Don't agree with your sarcastic post but made me laugh nonetheless.
