Remember Cotto is the top-ranked junior middleweight and JMM holds a lightweight belt. Cotto versus Canelos is THE fight at 154.
Agree completely that Cotto-Canelo is the fight at 154 -- and the best possible Cotto fight out there at any weight. I would much rather watch that than a Cotto-Manny repeat or Cotto-Floyd.

But I think more likely, we get Manny-Bradley and Floyd-Canelo. And then I have no idea what happens with Cotto. None of the other potential fights are big money for him. JMM at 147 is probably the biggest and I think could still be good despite the size differential.
