I actually give Cotto a much better chance at beating Floyd than Tony. Tony tends to plod forward sometimes, and will take shots to get in. Floyd will hit and run; and even if Tony manages to get inside Floyd, I still see Floyd being able to hang in there and use his speed to land inside; and get out fast. Floyd's defense is still the best in the business.

Cotto seems much improved in his boxing and uses his jab to great efficiency. And his has good timing; though no one is as good as Floyd. I see neither beating Floyd really, but I wouuld have to edge it to Cotto if I had to choose one to dethrone Pretty Boy.

Tony looked good last night on a guy who has a typical bully mentality. Likes to dominate and impose his will with his heavy hands, but can't come close to taking what he dishes out. Like I said yesterday in another thread, Cintron looked ready to flee against Feliciano, a guy who couldn't put a punch combination together to save his life, but who has a great beard. Tony can take a shot AND put punches together, and anyone that has those 2 things can beat a Cintron 8 days a week.

Cotto beat up a guy who really had no business being put in with the lion. Cotto/Margarito fight has to happen to see who should be the guy who gets a crack at Floyd; though Cotto already deserves that shot anyways.
