    Its obvious that MAyweather and Pacquiao would beat Cotto but i think that even Canelo and maybe JCC Jr. could beat him with the right game plan.

    Here's how I see these play out

    Cotto VS JCC Jr.
    Cotto is small at 154lbs and the sheer size advantage that JCC brings in (weighs around 170 on fight night) would make it a long night for Cotto. Cotto is obviously more talented but he's war torn and bruises and cuts pretty easily. while JCC is slower and is less skilled, he's not afraid to mix it up, has a great chin, has huge reach and height advantage, and by the time a fight could be made would be better overall technically as he has shown in his recent fights. If JCC comes in well conditioned I'd have it at 60%-40% for Cotto to win by decision barely!!

    Cotto VS Canelo
    Almost the same scenario as above except Canelo has better craft then JCC Jr and because of this I think he is in better postition to land more powerful punches which easily hurt Cotto. I would expect a fight like the Margarito fight where Cotto is fighting off the back foot for most of the fight, the fight continues until Cotto tires and Canelo catches him. I would expect to see Cotto get knocked down and Canelo winning the fight by decision.

    Cotto VS Pacman
    Fight could actually be better than the 1st fight if Cotto boxes more as he did in the second half of the first fight. Would probably go to a decision as PacMan, as shown in his last 3 fights, is slowing down in punch output so he wont be able to stop Cotto this time around.

    Cotto VS Mayweather
    Long boring fight where Cotto gets beat to the punch everytime, gets cut and bruised up on his way to lose by Unanimous decision.

    I think Cotto should fight James Kirkland, it would be an exciting match and I think James can still be outboxed and most likely knocked out by a strong accurate puncher like Cotto. Kirkland would be alot stronger and the way bigger man so it would still be dangerous but I think Cotto can still pull it off.

    Chavez Jr. has weighed around 180 for his last couple fights at 160. Not 170. 180. Chavez Jr. should be at 168 while Cotto could probably go back to 147 if the money was right.

    It's going to be Cotto vs Mayweather in May. For Pacman is going to sign a fight right before Mayweather get out the pin.

    Cotto is obviously cashing in, the Margarito fight was the same. If you are so upset by an opponent then have him charged with manslaughter, you don't fight the man. Cotto's morals are shifting ones and it isn't as though he hasn't fought his share of filler in recent years.

    Even ElTerrible will admit that at this stage of his career, Cotto is in the market for big money fights. Sergio Martinez is doing the same thing but it's actually realistic for Cotto. As stated before by another poster, if Cotto wanted to take a risk, he would take on Sergio Martinez. Sergio has called Cotto out unlike the boxers mentioned.

    Out of those options though, as a Cotto fan, I like the Canelo fight. There's the Mexican-Puerto Rican rivalry and the back story that Canelo beat his brother. It doesn't hurt that they are both the same size. I'm not convinced Canelo is ready for Cotto. I favor Cotto at this point in that fight.
