Re: How Would Miguel Cotto Have Done Against Elite 90's Welterweights ??
Nice stuff ICB. I think Cotto still has some improvement ahead and would be in pretty thick with these here.He would wise to start off with a Oba Carr or Rivera type.
Delahoya vs. Cotto.Honestly I think a prime welter Oscar would be a nightmare For Cotto with speed and versatility.Cotto at this point ,just could not keep up imo.
Whitaker Vs. Cotto . If Judah can hit Cotto from alot of angels early Whitaker could co it all night long.....without standing there afterward to be hit.
Quartey Vs. Cotto. Man,If Quartey would have just been more active in career.He was a master in the shot gun jab dept.Solid power even though he looked to have an odd "openness" on his punches.Could be an offensive machine.Was willing to mix it up but could be clipped as well.I like Cottos recoup power and bodywork but Ike would just be too much Imo and probably stop him late.
Lopez vs. Cotto.simply put this would be insane!!Lopez's worst enemy was Himself at times,could really be unmotivated but when he was focused and in shape he was a Beast.He had a solid run when he broke out,Top notch body puncher and a head made of granite.Bricks in his gloves as well.Cottos best/real shot would to box Lopez.It would be very tough but I would pick cotto by a close Decision after some scary moments ??
Trinidad vs. Cotto. Trinidad by decapitation.Yeh Trinidad got dropped alot but would get up almost smiling.I could just see that speed and left hook power bouncing off of cotto's temple,hurting him bad.
Hey,The fact the questions are asked says alot Of Cotto,I think he will Improve alot and could stick around a spell.Im a convert.
