    I've said it for a long time, Cotto has a solid style to fight Mayweather. Good solid jab, good pop, he can still dig to the body, and he's a lot better boxer than he's given credit for. The handspeed issue has popped up throughout Miguel's career most notably in the Pacquiao fight (where Cotto didn't have a trainer in his corner or during his training) but I remember when he fought Mosley and Zab those two were supposed to have better handspeed, they did, but in those fights it was all about TIMING and Miguel can do that. Remember how well De la Hoya did vs Floyd...I think Cotto can bring similar trouble to Floyd. Plus, Floyd likes getting a rise out of people....you just can't outrage Cotto, dude is stonefaced, he doesn't get visibly riled up.

    In the Pacquiao rematch all Cotto needs to do is copy what JMM did which I think he can do AND add power to it...dude lasted a long time without being properly trained the first time, he may surprise people in a rematch, if anything it would be more competitive.

    JC Jr. is still a bit raw, he's been moved along quite slowly. He's big, but he doesn't seem to hit like a 180 pounder.

    Canelo is a pick'em fight, I'd favor Cotto though...I mean just a while ago Jose Miguel Cotto lasted 9 with Canelo, Matthew Hatton lasted the distance! I think Miguel Cotto is more talented than those guys.

    I even think Cotto-Martinez is a pretty close fight...Miguel has done well with southpaws before. I just doubt he wants to move to 160 because he's too small

    Glad Cotto is a free agent which should mean he is getting the most out of his career in terms of money and opportunities. He should not bother going up to middleweight, or down to welterweight, that can wait as a back up should he lose. The ideal fight would be against Canelo, which would be a unification fight against a Mexican undefeated fighter.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
