Styles make fights and Cotto's style would be good vs Marquez and great vs Ortiz and it should cause Floyd trouble. Pac fought a weight drained trainerless Cotto and Miguel still went far in the fight. Clottey is a very durable fighter, similar to Margarito in his ability to take a punch. Given that Cotto was hurting himself to make 147 & had just 1 fight between Clottey and the Margarito match sure he looked bad and it's understandable, but he won the fight. How many rounds did Cotto lose to Yuri? 2-3 if that much? He stopped him didn't he?

I'm not certain Cotto will beat Floyd, I do expect him to give Floyd trouble though at least for the first half of the fight, and I say that because Cotto is diverse and Floyd is a great problem solver in the ring and so it may take time for Cotto to use up his tricks and Floyd to counter them.

I AM however certain Cotto would destroy Ortiz, there's 0 doubt in my mind he would. Vic has never fought at 154, he faltered vs Maidana and drew vs Petterson and I'm sorry Miguel Cotto is hands down better than those guys.
